Now that the Christmas decorations have been packed away and the last of the mince pies eaten, it’s time to embrace the new year and start making plans! With a whole year stretching ahead, just waiting to be filled with holidays and adventures, here’s a handy overview of the main school holiday dates to enable you to plan your breaks away. You’re bound to find the perfect self-catering accommodation in our fantastic selection of properties on the north Cornish coast and can use the dates as a guide either to book a seaside holiday for all the family when school’s out, or alternatively a quiet Cornish coastal get-away during term time!

After the build up to the festive season and excitement of Christmas Day itself, there are several days of ‘downtime’ before the New Year’s celebrations get underway. This Twixmas period refers to the days betwixt Christmas and New Year.

New Year in Cornwall is a special time to visit for a holiday or short-break. After all the festivities of Christmas, it’s an opportunity to relax and unwind or, if you prefer, keep on partying into 2019.

With markets and fairs and festive experiences galore, Christmas in Cornwall is full of wonderful Christmassy events, seasonal celebrations and festive cheer. Intersperse these with strolls on the beach in the crisp fresh sea air, and you have a winning winter break.
