🍂 And just like that… Monday brings normality again.

The uniforms are ready.
Lunchboxes are back out.
Alarms are being set.
And across the country, families are slipping back into the familiar rhythm of school, work and routine.

But down here in Cornwall, something else happens too…

Everything gets a little quieter. 💚

The summer crowds begin to disappear. The roads calm down. The beaches have more space. The coast paths feel peaceful again.

And for some of you, this might just be your time.

👶 If your little ones aren’t school age yet…
☕ If retirement means you no longer have to plan around term dates…
💻 If working from home means your “office” can occasionally have a rather better view…
❤️ Or if you’re simply a couple who loves Cornwall when it’s a little slower…

September is waiting.

Come for the walks, the beaches and the slower mornings.

Spend an afternoon in our heated indoor pool. 🏊
Wander down to the river.
Explore Cornwall without the peak-summer bustle.
Then head back, put your feet up and enjoy having nowhere else you need to be.

For many, Monday means back to routine.

But if your life gives you the freedom to travel outside the school holidays, perhaps Monday could mean something different…

Time to escape it. 🌿

🏠 A hotel room… or a whole cottage in Bude?

Sometimes it pays to look beyond the big names.

We recently compared the price of a stay at Cobblestone Cottage with a room at one of the large hotel chains locally.

And we were cheaper. 💚

But for us, it’s not really just about the price.

For less than the cost of that hotel room, you could have a whole cottage to yourselves.

A kitchen for lazy breakfasts. ☕
A living room to put your feet up after a day on the beach.
Your own front door.
Space to unpack, relax and actually settle in.
And Bude just outside, ready to explore. 🌊

And when you book Cobblestone, you’re not booking with a faceless corporation.

You’re booking with a small, independent, family-run business.

We’re the people behind the messages, the cleaning, the maintenance and all those little jobs that go into making sure the cottage is ready for you.

Every booking genuinely matters to us.

So before automatically booking the familiar hotel room, perhaps have a look at what else your money could get you.

Because sometimes a whole cottage, a little more space and a lot more character can actually cost you less. 🏡💚

And hopefully, you’ll g a hotel room can’t guarantee…

some lovely Bude memories. 🌊

☔ The rain is back… and so is Cornwall as we know it. 💚

After weeks of sunshine, blue skies and a very un-Cornish amount of dry weather, the Bank Holiday weekend has arrived — and Cornwall has decided it’s time for a little rain again.

And actually, we’re rather pleased to see it.

The fields need it. 🌱
The river needs it.
The gardens need it.
The animals are happy to see it.
And everything is already starting to look that little bit greener.

This weekend might mark the last big weekend of the summer holidays, but it certainly doesn’t mean the end of holidays in Cornwall.

In fact, September and October can be rather lovely here. 🍂

Quieter roads.
More space on the beaches.
Coastal walks without the summer crowds.
Pub lunches after a morning exploring.
And evenings cuddled up by the woodburner. 🔥

And if the Cornish weather doesn't play ball?

We have a heated indoor swimming pool. 🏊‍♀️

So a rainy afternoon doesn't have to mean sitting inside wondering what to do. Grab the swimming things, head to the pool and let Cornwall do whatever Cornwall wants to do outside. ☔

So, could you squeeze in one last-minute Cornish break this September or October?

A few days away. No summer-holiday rush. No need for a packed itinerary.

Just a little more Cornwall before autumn really gets underway.

Pack the walking boots. Pack the waterproofs. Definitely pack the swimming things.

The rain is welcome. And so are you. 💚

☀️ Things children will remember about this summer…
Probably not how many miles you travelled.
Not whether every day was perfectly planned.
And definitely not whether you managed to fit in every attraction on the list.
They’ll remember the little things. 💚
💦 Paddling in the river until their feet went numb.
⚽ Throwing down two jumpers and suddenly having a football pitch.
🏏 Mum or Dad insisting they’re still brilliant at cricket.
🏊 “Just one more swim!” before finally getting out of the pool.
🐄 Stopping to watch the cows in the field.
🧺 Picnics where nobody really sat on the blanket.
🌊 Sandy toes after a day exploring the Cornish coast.
🌅 Staying outside later than usual because bedtime feels different on holiday.
As we head into the last week of the school summer holidays, there’s always that feeling that summer has disappeared far too quickly.
But there’s still time.
Time for one more adventure.
One more picnic.
One more swim.
One more evening where nobody is thinking about school shoes, packed lunches or alarm clocks.
Because childhood summers aren't really remembered by how much you managed to squeeze into them.
They're remembered in moments.
And sometimes the simplest ones become the stories they tell for years to come. 🌿

🌙 🌖 Some moments happen once. Others come back year after year. 🌿

It’s been quite a week here in Cornwall.

We’ve looked up at the sky for a 96% partial eclipse, stayed up to catch glimpses of the meteor shower, and back down on the farm, we’ve watched another little milestone unfold as the swallows finally left their nest. 🐦

Some things you wait a long time to see.

Others, like our swallows, become part of the rhythm of life here. They arrive each year, make themselves at home, raise their young and, before we know it, it’s time for them to leave again.

And perhaps holidays are a little like that too.

Some of our guests discover Kingscombe Cottages for the very first time and spend a few precious days with us before heading home with new Cornwall memories.

Others return year after year — familiar faces coming back to a familiar place, noticing what has changed and enjoying all the things that haven’t. 💚

We appreciate every single stay.

Whether Kingscombe is somewhere you visit once in a lifetime, somewhere you’ve only just discovered, or somewhere you find yourself returning to again and again, you’ll always be welcome here.

Because the really special thing about a holiday isn’t always the big event.

Sometimes it’s simply being in the right place, at the right moment, with the right people. ✨
