Cottages by the sea in Far West Cornwall
With so many miles of scenic coastline, Far West Cornwall is the perfect destination for a holiday by the sea. Travel in any direction and you'll soon hit the coast, or just wander along the South West Coast Path for guaranteed views with every step.Read more
We have holiday cottages so close to the sea, the shoreline is your doorstep, but if that's a little too close, opt for a cottage with a sea view instead - we've got 64 self catering cottages within a mile of the sea in Far West Cornwall.
Far West Cornwall has a unique atmosphere, its own micro climate, a special kind of something that brings artists and visitors flocking to the shores. Looking out to the horizon instills a certain sense of calm that only sitting in front of a view of the sea can bring. So now imagine staying in a cottage on the beach where every window affords that view, the only obstacle being sea spray on the glass. If that's a little close for comfort, treat yourself to a luxury coastal cottage, safely ensconced on a clifftop away from the salt and sand, but with a sea view for miles. With the coast path on your doorstep, you'll have the ultimate holiday by the sea. Don't want to share the view? Some of our holiday homes by the sea are secluded beach cottages, tucked away in quiet estuaries or even with their own private bit of beach. Of course there's one member of the family that will really appreciate stepping out of a cottage on the coast path each morning - so peruse our dog friendly holiday cottages by the sea.
Wake up to the sound of the ocean with a relaxing stay in a Far West Cornwall cottage by the sea.

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.
