Each and every one of our cottages is fully equipped with everything you’ll need on holiday.
Fully equipped cottages
All of our cottages have a standard list of equipment that goes above and beyond. As well as fluffy towels and readymade beds, our bare minimum includes everything you’ll need and more, from plenty of teaspoons to added extras such as gravy boats so no matter where you stay, you’ll be able to make your favourite home-cooked dishes.
Each inventory is regularly checked and counted so you won’t be stuck without a ladle and can leave your hairdryer at home, plus you’ll find a starter set of toiletries and cleaning products so you can get on with your holiday.
And if you’re looking for a dog friendly holiday in Gwithian, there are plenty of dog friendly walks around. Visit the nature reserve or go for a stroll on the towans (Cornish for sand dunes!), where dogs are welcome all year. Nearby you’ll find the year round dog friendly beach of Porthkidney, and don’t forget your dog is welcome at Gwithian Beach before 8am and after 7pm in the summer and at any time between 1st October – 30th April.

A self catering holiday in Gwithian also makes for the perfect base to explore all that Cornwall has to offer, with easy reach to St Michael’s Mount and the Eden Project, along with the lovely Cornish towns and villages of Marazion, Hayle, Carbis Bay, St Ives and many more!
