When life gets in the way of actually living, all it takes to reset is to retreat to an idyllic barn like this Grade II listed one in Cornwall. When you wake up here on your first morning feeling a little more calibrated, why not pop open the bi-fold doors to this little studio and get back in bed with a coffee and crossword. Puzzle it out together as you unwind, and if you happen to fall asleep again, then rest assured knowing time has no domain here. When you’re ready to leave the safety of the bed, take your breakfast outside so you’re able to fully appreciate the clean air and quiet of the village. Cornish pasties, wine, good books, and a fire in the small wood-burning stove is in order for wetter weather, but when it’s sunny, you’re going to want to venture out to the local beaches. With white sand and insanely blue water, a day spent waterside, listening to crashing waves, will be the ultimate tonic for the last bit of stress you’ve been holding onto. Write your name in the sand before hitting up one of the local restaurants for fresh seafood, and end the night with a spot of stargazing when you get back home.

About Sennen
Mermaids, spirits and smugglers – oh my! It's hard to believe that this little fisherman's village has such a storied past, but Sennen is nothing if not a hub of myths and legends. From King Arthur through to WWII, this most westerly village in England is a hidden gem on the Cornish coast. In the Cove, you'll find a historic pub and seaside eateries, all with a pared-back Cornish feel....
