Welcome to Cornwall Apartment Holidays - and a hugely more enjoyable, and modern way to enjoy self catering in Cornwall. We offer you a luxury, modern apartment which has been designed and equipped to provide you with the "feel" and modernity of a boutique hotel whilst at the same time allowing you the comforts of being totally independent. Self-catering has, at last, come-of-age and no longer means putting up with someone else’s cast-offs, swirly-patterned sticky carpets and floral duvets. Instead, our apartment is furnished to a very high standard and includes a flat-screen T.V, D.V.Ds, broadband wireless internet, ipod speakers, telephone, hi-fi system, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, local books, maps, bed linen and towels .

Ocean's edge , Mevagissey.

One of only twelve luxury cliff top apartments which was designed and built in 2001, it is situated at the top of a hill at the very edge of the sea. The views of Mevagissey harbour and the Cornish coast in both directions are un-interrupted and spell-binding. From local croissants and coffee at breakfast to the very last glass of Camel Valley wine before bed you will find it hard to tear yourself away from an ever-changing vista of boats, sunrises, sunsets, seagulls and stars – all accompanied by the soporific breaking of the waves directly below. Ocean’s edge is a first floor apartment, sleeps 4 and comprises of a double and twin bedroom with en-suite shower-room, a family bathroom, a lounge, dining room and balcony all with glorious sea-views, and a luxury kitchen.

Holidays in Cornwall have always had a nostalgic rosy glow about them, and Mevagissey is no exception. It is still a traditional working Cornish fishing village with the busy harbour being the very heart of the village. A long and colourful history of smuggling and boat building [since 1745] all adds to its charm. Very narrow lanes are filled with art galleries, gift shops, cafes, restaurants [from seafood to Italian and Portuguese] and pubs. Once the centre for pilchard fishing, Mevagissey was the first to have electric street lighting powered by pilchard oil and was the birth place of Pears soap. Ocean’s Edge is a mere 5 minutes walk away from the centre of the village [this is downhill – its more like 10 minutes going back!] and as we offer a covered car parking space you won’t want to take the car.

As holiday accommodation in Cornwall, our apartment is ideally situated for exploring all of the best local attractions including The Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan, the Maritime Museum, the Coastal path and many local beaches and coves. Have a look at our “Out & About” section for extensive details on where to go, what to eat, what to do etc over a wide area of Cornwall. From walking to surfing, from pubs to fine dining, from farmers markets to pick-your-own, from beaches to spas, from gardens to golf, from sailing to ferries, we hope to give you so much to do that one week won’t be enough!

Look also at the “The Apartment” for a more detailed inventory and more information on the apartment – hopefully, the only things you’ll have to bring are your clothes, some food and drink and an appetite for enjoying yourselves. Welcome to a modern self-catering holiday in Cornwall and welcome to our home at the coast, we know you’ll love it.

If you would prefer a self - catering holiday home in Devon, then have a look at our new home in Torcross. Cliff House is simply unique - an historic, detached house, it occupies an outstanding cliff top position offering privacy and seclusion. Set on an elevated, rocky promontory above the small village of Torcross, the stunning views from nearly all the rooms are un-interrupted and spell-binding. Cliff House sleeps 8 and even welcomes your canine furry friends. www.luxuryholidaysindevon.co.uk
