The ultimate coastal retreat

John Bray Cornish Holidays offer over 300 stunning self-catering properties in north Cornwall’s most beautiful settings.

From luxurious contemporary homes with hot tubs, to beachside retreats with breathtaking ocean views, you’ll find your dream beach holiday on the rugged north coast.

“Whether you want to experience an adrenaline-fueled surf or a calm evening paddleboard, every water sport you could wish for is available on your doorstep”

With pristine beaches and an unspoilt coastline, you couldn’t ask for a better holiday destination. Just an hour from London to Cornwall Airport Newquay, or two and a half hours by car from Bristol, you could be on the sand before you know it.

Take in the spectacular sea views from your holiday home-from-home or hit the water for thrills and spills. Whether you want to experience an adrenaline-fueled surf or a calm evening paddleboard, every water sport you could wish for is available on your doorstep. On dry land, you can enjoy world-class golf, cycling and inspiring coastal walks.

Imagine opening up the French doors to your private balcony and watching the tide gently ebb and flow, or stepping out into a secluded garden to fill your lungs with fresh sea air. Many of the holiday homes are fitted with log burners and open fires too, so whether it’s just the two of you, or you’re watching a movie with the kids, John Bray’s stylish holiday homes are great for a cosy night in.

Since all of John Bray’s family friendly holiday homes are privately owned, each offers a unique experience. Swap your daily routine for al fresco meals and lazy evenings on a sheltered terrace; gather up family or friends for a cookout in the balmy evening sun. On those days where you don’t feel like cooking, you’ll find a fantastic selection of restaurants and bars all within walking distance offering a rich taste of Cornwall, from delicious surf and turf, to Michelin starred tasting menus and hearty pub classics.

Dogs are also welcome in over 140 of the homes and the beautiful beaches of Rock, Port Isaac, Daymer Bay and Greenaway are dog friendly all year round. Out of season, you can also enjoy long walks together on Polzeath beach, while in the summer we recommend lacing up your boots and exploring the South West Coast Path.

Whether it’s a long-awaited family holiday, a romantic break, or a last-minute coastal escape, there’s nothing like spending time by the sea. With over 45 years’ experience, why not let John Bray Cornish Holidays help you find your perfect seaside retreat?
