This stunning retreat on the Cornish coast is an idiosyncratic English paradise, charmingly furnished with a mix of classic country house style with pops of eye-catching modern design. Guests are invited to lounge around the hotel pool or slip through the resort's private beach access and dive straight into the waves of the waiting Atlantic. The cosy family suites are very spacious and invitingly furnished. For the ultimate deluxe experience, book one of the very desirable beach lodges. Unsurprisingly, the romantic resort is a very popular venue for proposals and weddings.
