Luxury romantic breaks in Cornwall
From drawn-out lie-ins entwined in linen sheets to suppers by the light of the moon; our luxury romantic breaks in Cornwall offer time away from routine.
We know that romance comes in many forms; though, we're not thinking chocolates and shop-bought flowers. For some, luxury romantic breaks in Cornwall conjure images of spending time together barbecuing freshly caught fish on a Whitsand Bay deck overlooking the ocean. For others, it’s sliding into roll tops bubbling over with heady essential oils, then drying off by an open fire. Or maybe you're a pair of surf types, setting off to Perranporth with a flask of tea and a slab of cake in the backpack, promising a sweet moment after a day on the swell.
Our luxury cottages for two are spread far and wide, hidden on secret beaches in Gorran Haven, tucked deep into wild Bodmin Moor, and high on the Lizard Peninsula. Inside, there’s a dash of romance waiting for all tastes, from luxury hampers to bubbling hot tubs. We've carefully curated our couples' retreats and honeymoon hideouts to ensure they are the most romantic in the land (you can even call in a private chef). So pack your bags for a weekend of sheer indulgence, unplug from work calls and plug into what really matters. Just the two of you.
