The log fire has been roaring away and the underfloor heating has been toasting our feet at our beautiful Garden apartment in Fowey, Cornwall. But this last weekend gave us a flavour of things to come as the temperature rose outside and we dared to loosen our layers.

Is Spring nearly here? Let's celebrate it anyway with a discount offer
Easter will soon be upon us when the garden at The Garden casts aside its hibernation suit. Then, with a fanfare, this little corner of Cornish paradise will erupt in colours and smells and sounds.

There is simply nothing like our luxury apartment and award-winning garden in Fowey in the spring. Why not experience it for yourself and take advantage of our May discount?

Saturday 30 April - Saturday 7 May: £625 (usually £675)
Saturday 7 May - Saturday 14 May: £625 (usually £675)

To find out more or make your booking, contact Marian by email or by phoning on 01225 471687 or complete our simple booking form.

One of the real treats that Fowey has to offer is its annual Christmas Market. This year it's back on the Town Quay and will be opened by everyone's favourite green guru, Dick Strawbridge.

We can't wait to sample the market's myriad delights. See our Things to do page for a flavour of the atmosphere.

But we hear accommodation is disappearing fast, so don't hesitate, no umming and ahing - we've made Carnethic House available for this special weekend at an equally special rate of £250! To find out more, contact Marian on 01225 471687.

A brisk downhill stroll through the woods below Carnethic to Readymoney beach then up the other side of the cove to the cliffs and a chance encounter with these fine ladies. Moo.

A turn of the head and we're looking out to sea and back across the mouth of the Fowey estuary. On this Bank Holiday there were myriad boats, possibly the Polruan Regatta (that's Polruan nestling on the far cliffs)....it's just that I somehow managed to miss all the boats when I took the photo - look at that lovely clear sky though!

An hour (ish) later and we've made it: Polkerris Beach. A quick dip in the sheltered bay for those of us who don't suffer anaphylactic shocks at the mere sight of northern hemisphere water, then into Sam's on the Beach (always book first - by phone or online, simples) for delicious moules....Joy!

Here's a little tip: make the most of every minute of this glorious place and, after your long lazy lunch, don't resign yourself to the A30 and M5 just yet, get on the beach and jolly well stay there. We all have that feeling that on our last day we should pack up and go. Oh sure, in the days before we say we'll spend the whole day in Cornwall, but you know how it is once you're packed and the car's stacked. Fight those urges people, because what's more, you'll beat the traffic.
All this - beautiful views, delicious food, sandy beaches, watersports, exercise (on them cliffs), hidden coves, deep breaths and fuel for the soul....right on the doorstep of our wonderful Cornish apartment at Carnethic House in Fowey, the perfect escape all year round.

Tempted? Why not book your little slice of paradise by calling Marian on 01225 471687 or email marian@cornishhols.com or complete our enquiry form?

Ship Ahoy! 08/31/2010
 
Visitors to Fowey over Bank Holiday woke up to this stunning view on Monday. At first we thought we might still be dreaming (due to a fairly detailed study of the cocktail list at Sam's top floor bar the night before), but sure enough, there it was, The Black Watch in all her regal splendour and imposing elan. What a sight!

No doubt she'll be featuring on postcards of Fowey soon...who knows, perhaps one of our Cornish Hols guests at Carnethic House will pin her up on our Note with a Boat gallery.

www.cornishhols.com is the new website for our luxury self-catering apartment, The Garden at Carnethic House.

Please stay and have a browse through the website...then come and stay in Fowey! We're sure you'll love it as much as we do. Everyone else does, as you'll see from the lovely things they say.

Our Cornish holiday apartment is the perfect escape at any time of year. Even this August with the heavens opening our guests haven't been disappointed, there's always so much to do and see. And if you can't gather the energy to go out of the front door, then don't. Just take one of the doors out on to the balcony, down the steps into the garden, through the little gate under the flower arch and into the relaxing warm atmosphere of the heated pool, sauna and hot tub.

It really is the perfect escape - come and enjoy it for yourselves.
