Herons

Boredom is persona non grata at this wonderful villa on a holiday resort in North Cornwall, thanks to an incredible range of amenities both private and shared that are available for guests to enjoy. Starting at the home itself, there's a private heated swimming pool, as well as a sauna and hot tub for warming up after a dip. On sunny days, the barbecue is ready and waiting for an alfresco feast, while the cinema room is sure to be appreciated on days when the weather isn't so kind. Aside from all these frivolities, there are all the modern home comforts you could ask for, from a sleek fireplace to the equally contemporary kitchen complete with an island. Elsewhere on the resort, there's a wave machine so you can practise your surfing, plus a watersports lake with an inflatable volleyball court, obstacle course and equipment for both wakeboarding and paddleboarding. If this sounds a little too active, the spa is sure to sing to you. From the site, it's also possible to embark on woodland walks and there are wellington boots provided. The lively beach town of Newquay is only twenty minutes away in the car, too.
