How about escaping the routine of Christmas – the shopping, the decorating the tree, standing in the kitchen for hours and preparing the festive meal? If there is just the two of you – then how about spending Christmas in Cornwall and living the dream for a week in our thatched cottage that feels like a home not a standard self catering rented property?
Ring and Thimble in November – hanging baskets hanging on!
We prepare the cottage for your stay – a real pine Christmas tree complete with decorations, fresh festive greenery gathered from our field hedgerows, a fresh Christmas wreath on your door – made here also. And of course there will be smoked salmon in the fridge and freshly laid Boscrowan eggs there for your breakfast on Christmas morning for you. We can be here to receive your food shopping order should you require or maybe you would like to visit our local farm shops and buy your own Christmas delectables?
A Christmas welcome at your front door
Walk on the Cornish cliffs on Christmas Day – how about a picnic lunch even. We also provide fully equipped wicker picnic hampers, rucksack, OS maps and plenty of information in the cottages about walks and what to do and see. (Photo below was Christmas last year on the coastal footpath near Cape Cornwall)
Christmas 2014 – walking near Cape Cornwall
Put your feet up in the evening in front of a roaring woodburner whilst dinner is simmering away in the aga
You can’t beat cooking on an aga!
And then just finish off with a glass of port
Savour a vintage port
At the end of the day, climb peacefully upstairs to that wonderful bed………………zzzzzzzz
A bedroom you’ll never forget!
