Whisk yourself and your loved one away to this heavenly off-grid coastal retreat and be prepared to be blown away by the spectacular views that await. It really is out of this world.

Snuggled in the cliff, with the most breathtaking and heavenly remote location, you'll have a bird's eye view of the beach below and uninterrupted far-reaching views across the sea. While away your days walking the coastal path, having fun on the beach, practicing yoga on the deck (mats provided of course), or watching the glorious sunset at the end of a perfect day - The Eagle is the stuff that holiday dreams are made of.

Perfect for solo escapes or romantic breaks, this super little cabin offers a stylish and comfortable interior with a delightful vibrant colour palette. The floor to ceiling windows in the open plan living-room magnificently frame the view so whether you are cooking up a seaside feast in the kitchen-area, perched at the kitchen island enjoying elevenses, or snuggled up on the sofa warming your toes in front of the wood-burner you will never lose sight of the ever-changing sea and skyscapes before you and, if you want to get a little closer, simply push back the doors and step out onto the spacious decking area.

For those who love the sound of the sea and dream of switching off from the outside world, this is the perfect hideaway. Literally off the beaten track, the access is an adventure in itself, some 500 steps down the cliffside track taking you to our eco retreat and a much-needed digital detox. Switch off your phones and reconnect with mother nature at her very best in this coastal paradise. With a view like this who needs a TV? Classic games, a good read or time to yourself are the order of the day.

Often referred to as the 'forgotten' part of Cornwall, the area around The Eagle is stunning - breathtaking, idyllic, and unspoilt. This is beach living at its very best as below the cabin is a vast golden stretch of beach, especially at low tide, with sandy shores and clear waters, perfect for an early morning stroll or wake me up dip.

Walking boots are a must as this is a rambler's heaven with dramatic scenery and beautiful coastal vistas around every corner and an abundance of birds and wildlife to spot along the way. The circular loop around Rame Head takes in the pretty twinned villages of Kingsand and Cawsand with a lovely local deli, gift shops, and a choice of places to eat and drink giving you a great excuse to stop for some good old Cornish hospitality along the way. The Canteen at Maker Heights is well renowned and a great place for a spot of lunch boasting sweeping sea views and serving only the freshest local produce, the unique menu is simply mouth-watering.

If city life calls, hop on the ferry at Cawsand (from April to October) and head over to the maritime city of Plymouth. The historic Barbican is lovely for a wander as is Plymouth Hoe with its iconic lighthouse and Royal William Yard caters for all tastes with its vast array of restaurants. Finally, if it's glorious gardens and verdant parkland you seek, be sure to check out Mount Edgcumbe with its historic house, artisan shops, cafe and interesting calendar of events.
