I love the UK.

The true seasons we experience in the countryside, the freshness of the coast with fish and chips wrapped in newspaper. I love all of our old towns, the buildings steeped in history and of course, the absolute joy of a really good British pub. All that said, time is teaching me that there is still so so much we are yet to experience here. Every year we travel abroad to sunnier skies when there are so many beautiful towns, villages and districts in the UK that, really, we know nothing about.

From wonderful hidden gems off the beaten track to beautiful regions known for their stunning scenery, amazing food and drink culture and endless activities to keep everyone entertained…no matter what the British Weather throws at us. I think Cornwall is a wonderful mix of all of those things, which we were so lucky to discover in February half term this year.

Having visited the South of Cornwall a couple of times in previous years and falling head over heels for it, we were really keen to explore the North more this time.

With no stress at all about the weight of our suitcases (I’m no good at packing light!), we loaded up the car with clothes and shoes for all seasons and two very excited little boys and made the three hour drive from Ledbury to Daymer Bay.

Our home for the half term week was arranged through Latitude 50, a handpicked range of self catering properties in Rock, Polzeath, Port Isaac and of course, Daymer Bay.

This Cornwall Based Business has been helping visitors discover the magic of their beautiful home for over 20 years, and you can really tell. Latitude 50 not only have a beautiful selection of properties, they are there to help guests plan their dream Cornwall holiday with beach, sight seeing and restaurant recommendations, and all those little details that take the stress away and make your self catering holiday really special.

Have I convinced you to maybe swap one of those overseas holidays for a trip to beautiful Cornwall?

I hope so!

Latitude 50 have a huge selection of some of the best holiday accommodation in the North of Cornwall. Here is a direct link to ours, but I am sure there will be something that takes your fancy here.
