Apple Bobbing
Apple Bobbing, Plum Guide home in Cornwall, UK
Click to book Apple Bobbing now: from £185 per night Bursting with character, this cute-as-a-button barn conversion found on a forty-acre Cornish farm offers a real escape from the stresses of modern life. You'll have all the charming rustic touches you would hope for — exposed stone walls, a vaulted ceiling and a log burner — but there's a modern feel, and absolutely no chintz. You can slip into your own wood-fired hot tub just outside the back door, and the host has been thoughtful enough to provide a generous stack of logs to get you started. Meet the farm animals or set off alongside the private Nature Reserve to discover the private shingle beach on the River Tamar. Later, take advantage of some of the farm's other surprises — a tennis court, a hammock hidden away in the orchard, and a basketball hoop. With a number of extra activities also bookable, you can take part in a foraging workshop, try out stand-up paddleboarding or get involved in local wine tasting. Alternatively, you can drive to the port city of Plymouth in about forty minutes and visit the National Marine Aquarium. Sleeps up to 3 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom
The Gulls
The Gulls, Plum Guide home in Cornwall, UK
Click to book The Gulls now: from £200 per night The quaint seaside town of Looe extends out below this hilltop house, and views stretch across the turquoise Cornish sea to St George’s Island. It’s a short, downhill stroll to the harbourfront where seafood restaurants serve the fresh catch of the day, and boats are ready to whisk you away to wildlife spotting along the shore. Right outside the house, you can join the South West Coast Path to stretch your legs in the sea air. True to its coastal location, the décor inside is fresh white and blue with nautical-themed feature walls and soft furnishings. Exposed stone walls in the spacious double bedrooms and living room reveal the history of the house. The kitchen has everything you need for self-catering and meals can be served at the dining table by the floor to ceiling windows. Sleeps up to 8 | 4 Bedrooms | 5 Bathrooms
