About the home

Visitors are in for a real treat when they stay at Glintings holiday cottage in Polperro, Cornwall. Perched on the hillside with magnificent views over the village of Polperro and down to the harbour, this spacious detached cottage offers a perfect retreat for a holiday in Cornwall. A lovely large, sunny living and dining room with a wood burner is a perfect place to unwind, with French doors that open out onto a lawned terrace, ideal for that early morning cup of coffee or drinks in the evening. Upstairs there are three large bedrooms, all with great views. The garden extends up beside the house with a terraced patio that encourages al fresco dining, having prepared your meal in the spacious kitchen. Polperro is one of those all year round destinations, with lovely scenic walks that meander along the coastal path and cosy inns full of atmosphere. The narrow streets, crowded around the harbour have a host of little shops selling local curios and antiques and there are several excellent restaurants and tea rooms. Then, at the end of the day Glintings provides a tasteful and beautifully furnished home from home, with all the creature comforts to ensure your stay is a
relaxing and memorable experience.

The West Country / Cornwall region

Cornwall is the most South Western part of the UK, benefitting from some of Britain's mildest climates, with the warming effects of the Gulf Stream, early springs and long lingering summers. This unspoilt County enjoys a dramatic landscape from rugged moorland to stunning beautiful golden beaches.

Cornwall has historically been intrinsically linked with outdoor activities. With some of the cleanest seas in Europe surrounding the County, it has always been popular for water-based activities especially surfing. North Cornwall, predominantly in and around Newquay has historically been home to many UK Surfing Championships.

Walkers are able to find extensive countryside to discover and can delight in the longest stretch of continuous coastline in Britain on the South West Coast Path.

This ancient and mystic Celtic County has a feeling of being a land of legend and romance. Hence artists come to Cornwall for inspiration drawn by its rugged beauty and the quality of light.

The Polperro area

South Cornwall has a wealth to offer in terms of stunning countryside, places of interest and leisure activities. These include the fabulous Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan, the Cotehele Estate and St Mellion, with its famous championship golf course, leisure centre and spa is just 7 miles from Plymouth.

Encompassing the enchanting fishing towns of Looe and Polperro. The bustling town of Looe is divided by the ever-changing river that separates quieter West Looe from the absorbing waterfront of East Looe, with its diversity of shops, restaurants and pubs, Banjo pier and sandy beach. Nestling in a deep sheltered valley protected by the ancient harbour is the spectacular, historic fishing village of Polperro, much favoured by artists, writers and photographers and the location for many films, due to its inspirational and truly remarkable setting.

The river Tamar has been the official border between Cornwall and Devon, the area around the Tamar Valley is recognised as a World Heritage Site, having cultural importance on a global level being rich in both beauty and heritage. With the stunning village of Cargreen perched on it's banks. The Valley possesses some of the most beautiful and unspoilt scenery in the Westcountry.

“We would highly recommend Glintings Holiday Cottage in polperro” We stayed here for a week in July 2012. What a lovey place for vacation, excellent location, close to shops and just around the corner from the harbour. The cottage is well equipped and presented to a high standard. Breathe taking scenery. We would definitely return, maybe in the autumn next time. We would highly recommend Glinitings. Just what we were looking for, very cosy with everything we needed
