These beautiful cottages have been beautifully restored from old Cornish farm buildings, and now feature contemporary design, light open plan interiors and cutting edge technology. They're only a short walk from the popular town of Looe - and not far from Polperro - so there is a good selection of shops, restaurant and pubs nearby.
Kilminorth Cottages have their own gorgeous gardens and an impressive outdoor swimming pool. An all-weather tennis court plus lovely walks through the woodland are also right on the doorstep. This is a lovely part of Cornwall and accessible to some major attractions, such as the Eden Project and Adrenaline Quarry, home of the longest zip wire in the UK.
Bridle Cottage sleeps up to five people over two storeys. It's bright, airy and comfortable with two luxury double bedrooms and one single room. The patio doors lead to a terrace with a barbecue, garden furniture and private outdoor hot tub.
As well as the many sporting activities - sailing, gliding, hot air ballooning - available in Cornwall, you could also spend a day meeting the primates at the Monkey Sanctuary in Looe.
