With Christmas and New Year all wrapped up it’s time to start thinking about a little winter break all to yourselves, just the two of you; no extended family, no children, no pets. Bliss.
Cornwall’s landscape in the colder months is just as beautiful as it is in full summer bloom, and with the main tourist season months away, winter is a superb time to take advantage of our wide open spaces, peaceful shores and a certain tranquility only found in our outstanding county.
Bundle up and bond again
The South West Coast Path around Newquay on a brisk January morning, hand in hand with your significant other, is a great way to enjoy some solitude after crowded Christmas weeks, and wearing your warmest clothes as a fresh sea breeze brushes your face never fails to bring cosiness into focus.
The sea air and coastal views are sure to blow away any cobwebs that may have spun themselves over the festive season, and the post-walk red noses and rosy cheeks we see enjoying steaming hot chocolates, always shine a little brighter than before they left.

Spice on the ice
Just a short drive from Newquay and you arrive at the world famous Eden Project. Their winter ice skating sessions are almost guaranteed to bring a smile to your face and warmth into your hearts – no matter how chilly the rink may feel.
Embrace each other as the moment takes you – be it in a moment of affection or simply to stay upright – and enjoy graceful revolutions as a couple amongst the tropical biomes.
Intimacy by the ocean
Time, that’s what we firmly believe couples need. Time to themselves, time away from everyone else, time to treat and indulge each other, time to really get to know one other again.
A morning spent under a luxury duvet on a frosty winter’s day, champagne and blankets on the beach, barista coffee overlooking the coast…it’s the little things that make a break in Cornwall during the winter months so special.
