The gentle South's secret coves

11/5/2016

0 Comments

 
Cornwall is blessed with numerous, beaches, from quiet hidden away coves to vast long stretches of golden sand. The rugged North coast has lots to offer with its renowned surfing beaches pounded by Atlantic rollers - certainly worth visiting and not too far to travel to from Cider Cottage.

But nearer here on the gentler South coast we have some super little coves. Our favourite is approached through woodland down an old Smuggler's path.

It’s a lovely sheltered gently sloping bay and the water is warmed on an incoming tide after the sun has heated up the sand.  A comment from a relative who was visiting with us, said it was like swimming in an infinity pool. 

Another bonus is it is never crowded, the 20 minute walk may deter some, but with a 4 and 6 year old in tow there were no complaints only anticipation and excitement.

There are many other beaches within easy reach of Cider Cottage and we even have a tide clock in the cottage so our guests can plan the best time to visit the coast. Whether it's for crabbing in Looe at high tide, a paddle or swim at one of our secret hidden away coves, or a beach with easy access. With Cornwall's extensive coastline, the choice is endless.

    In Feb 2021 Keith and Karen Burden took ownership of Cider Cottage whilst Lynn and Peter the previous owners moved closer to the sea to explore and enjoy more of a coastal life.
    Karen and Keith want to  keep up the very high standards set by the previous owners and very much look forward to welcoming guests again as soon as Government restrictions are lifted and it is safe to do so. 
    ​Lynn and Peter Murnaghan moved from Winchester, Hampshire to Woodhill Manor in Summer 2011. We then spent a good deal of time and energy renovating Cider Cottage to create a fabulous self-catering holiday venue for discerning guests.
