We’ve been raising the standards of self catering holidays since 1977.
Our family ethos
Tony and Clare Tregoning started the business back in 1977 and their dedication to quality and excellence is at the heart of everything we do. Tony is sadly no longer with us, but we still adhere to their original ethos of finding holiday homes we would like to stay in and have slowly grown the company to find the best picks of properties across the counties. Plus Clare still drops in to keep us on our toes.
As an independent, family-run company, we wouldn’t expect you to stay anywhere we wouldn’t want to stay ourselves. And we’re pretty picky. We want you to walk into your handpicked holiday home and say ‘wow’, sit back and relax.

We are Gold accredited with the Green Tourism Business Scheme.
Green Tourism Business Scheme
As a company, we look across our business and try to make sustainable changes and decisions. From using recycled paper in our printers to putting in measures for using less energy in our offices, we keep an eye on our impact on the environment.
Beyond our offices, we have passed on the same ethics to our holiday cottage owners by setting up our own Green Scheme that they can join. Each property has to tick off a certain number of actions to be included in the scheme, many of which go above and beyond the GTBS requirements.
A month of transition and promise, October sees summer bid its final farewell and autumn gracefully take the stage. All around the county, trees shed their lush sheaths and hues of burnt orange, rust and deep red leak across the landscape. With children finishing their first half term of the new school year and work routines heavy following summer's games, why not take the opportunity to recoup and catch up together? At Classic Cottages we have a wide range of self-catering cottages offering a luxury base from which to enjoy Cornwall's autumnal tones. Tread leaves, play on empty beaches and enjoy whatever comes your way, an October half term holiday in Cornwall is not one to be missed. Find your favourite cottage today and take a step closer to your next adventure together.
