This B&B suite in peaceful St. Kew is connected with the very best that North Cornwall has to offer. Here, you’re only a fifteen-minute drive from Polzeath Beach and twenty-five minutes from Tintagel Castle – the imposing keep that inspired the myth of King Arthur. Your 16th-century cottage also feels a little magical in its own way, from the gorgeous tree-shaded setting to the exposed timber beams inside the home. Just like in the days of yore, you’ll have homemade bread and preserves left out for your breakfast in the morning. After long country walks on sunny afternoons, the 15th-century St. Kew Inn next door serves up seasonal dishes, Cornish ales and weekly live folk music. And when it’s time to call it a night, fluffy dressing gowns and a dreamy king-size bed await.
