Winter stays
What better way to blow away the winter blues than with a getaway in Cornwall? Whether that’s by the stunning Cornish coast or tucked away in the beautiful countryside, we’ve hand-picked a selection of stays you’re sure to love.
Winter getaway to Port Gaverne
Through the winter, we all need something to look forward to, and a holiday is the ultimate respite from the grey working days. Forever Cornwall is offering 15% off a winter escape to the north Cornish coast, giving you a great excuse to get away before summer. Port Gaverne is the perfect winter destination, with dramatic cliff paths that are ideal for storm watching, cobbled streets nearby that are great for exploring on a crisp day and a choice of cosy pubs that are the perfect spot to sit fireside with a glass of wine.
With ten dog-friendly properties in this picturesque north Cornwall coastal hamlet, Forever Cornwall are offering winter breaks to remember! Between now and the end of Easter (weeks ending on or before 27th April), Forever Cornwall are offering 15% off all weeks at any of their Port Gaverne properties. There’s plenty to choose from; nestle down in a cosy cottage for two, enjoy a glass of wine in the warmth of a woodburner or wake up to stunning sea views in an elegant apartment big enough to sleep eight. All ten properties are dog friendly, have private parking and are just a moment’s walk from the sheltered cove of Port Gaverne and the nearby pubs and restaurants. What’s not to love?
Port Gaverne sits right next to (and away from the hustle and bustle of) Port Isaac, of Doc Martin and Poldark fame. However, this little hamlet has a charm all of its own. Here, you’ll find an award-winning pub, direct access to the coastal footpath, and a beach that’s totally dog-friendly all year round. Stroll up the road to find the impressive Restaurant Nathan Outlaw plus many other local restaurants serving pizza, ‘pub grub’ and, of course, beautifully fresh seafood. Port Gaverne and its surrounding area has all you need for a coastal Cornish break.
Discover this hidden part of Cornwall’s coast before others. With the final season of Doc Martin being filmed just five minutes away, and the Fisherman’s Friends movie (released in March) set in the area, this part of Cornwall is sure to draw attention to itself this summer!
