Picture crisp morning walks along the River Camel before returning to the crackle of the wood burner, perhaps with a glass of something special from a local vineyard. Days unfold at your own pace: cycling the famous Camel Trail to Padstow's harbour, exploring golden beaches along the Trevose Headland, or simply settling into those window seats with a good book.
