Cornwall

Cornwall truly being England’s best-kept secret, this southernmost seaside getaway has the most breathtaking vistas. Although a fair drive from London (5 hours on a good day, 6-7 on one with more traffic), all the trouble is forgotten once you reach the destination. Find yourself one of Unique Home Stay’s cozy, luxury cottages, and make sure to visit Kynance Cove on The Lizard Peninsula as well as one of the many other Cornish beaches, or the charming village of Coverack. The water reflects the likes of The Caribbean’s St. Barths or Spain’s Formentera, while the nature remains one of a kind. If you’re trying to visualize it, picture a place where heaven and earth meet in the middle.
