If you were looking for cottages like Bumblebee Cottage, how about trying these:

As cute as its name, Bumblebee Cottage is an utterly delightful little bolthole for a family or couple looking to enjoy the delights of Cornwall's charming south east coastline. Away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life with a private terrace and fabulous garden, you are the shortest of drives to the traditional fishing town of Looe and the seaside villages of Seaton and Downderry.

Tucked away down a country lane, which in late spring puts on the most stunning of displays, this is the place to kick back and relax. Step inside and this small but oh so perfectly formed semi-detached cottage, greets you with a warm welcome. Rustic shelving, a chunky farmhouse style dining-table and cosy sofa await you in the open plan living-room and children will adore the sweetest of twin bedrooms on the ground floor. The luxurious family bathroom is a real treat with its gorgeous roll-top bath, so it will be bubble baths for the younger members and bubbles of a different kind for the adults - there's even little shelves either side to place your glass! The spacious double bedroom takes up the whole of the first floor complete with its own en suite shower-room, ideal when someone is enjoying a long lazy soak in the family bathroom.

Your private terrace invites you to enjoy meals al fresco style, cooked up on the barbecue and should it turn a little chilly the outdoor log-burner will keep you cosy. The garden is a dream, a large area of lawn, small orchard, play area and a garden bench perfectly positioned to enjoy the far reaching views across the open countryside, highly recommended for viewings at the end of the day accompanied with your favourite tipple. The main garden is shared with the sister cottage Barn Owl Cottage (5015), but there's plenty of room for all you to find your own space or even better make new friends or why not bring some friends with you and rent both cottages together.
