Holiday cottages in Boscastle

Our holiday cottages in Boscastle are the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle and swap the ring of your phone for the din of Atlantic waves.

On the enchanting North Cornwall coast, traditional stone cottages line the banks of the River Valency which flows into Boscastle’s historic harbour.

Many will associate Boscastle with the flash flood that overwhelmed the tiny fishing village back in 2004. But over a decade on, this beautiful, remote hamlet has been returned to its former glory.
