Cornwall Holiday Cottage Help Needed!!

11 replies

Creena · 10/08/2007 12:09

To cut a long story short, we weren't going to take our usual week's holiday in Cornwall this year (new baby etc) but have just this minute decided to go after all. Obviously, we've left it very late and everywhere is pretty much booked up. So I'm now trawling through the internet looking for a holiday cottage in Cornwall that's available for rent during the week 18th - 25th August.

Can anyone recommend a good website/company/privately owned property that is worth me checking out, please? I'd be so grateful for any tips of advice anyone can offer. We would need a property that could accommodate two adults, two children and a baby in a cot. It doesn't even have to be in Cornwall - a week away somewhere nice would be just heaven right now.

phone them though- dont go by the avaiability on the website ( it said they had no props when I looked- but I phoned and got a lovely two bed cottage right by the harbour!)

harbour holidays are all booked up, which isn't surprising really. will keep looking, though!
