short breaks

Poltarrow is a great place to visit out of season... Cornwall wakes up before the rest of the country and is also much quieter during winter months.

Being on the gentler side of Cornwall, the southern coast is warmed by the Gulf Stream, bringing the glorious gardens of Heligan, Caerhays, Trewithen, Trebah and many more, into bloom that bit earlier. Their forests of camellias, rhododendrons, magnolias and azaleas, make Spring a spectacular time for all garden lovers.

... but it's not just the gardens that appeal to visitors to Cornwall in the springtime. Combine this with miles of beautiful coastline and quieter roads and attractions, spring really is a perfect time to visit Cornwall...
