Cornish Holiday Cottages

About Us

Our Story

Founded by Tom and Sarah Penrose, Cornish Holiday Cottages began as a small, hands-on venture rooted in a genuine love for Cornwall and its distinctive holiday homes. Starting with just a handful of carefully selected properties, Tom and Sarah focused on quality over quantity, working closely with owners to ensure every cottage met their high standards. Today, the business has grown into a trusted collection of stays across the county, while remaining proudly independent and personally run, with the same attention to detail and care for every guest.
