Best Things Nearby:
The town of Fowey is about two miles away. Very charming with friendly shops and very good restaurants. A lovely harbor as well. The Eden project is only four miles away (unless you get lost like we did). If you like plants, this is a must see. The largest greenhouses in the world. The guides were very knowledgeable and the grounds and greenhouses were magnificent.
Best Things About the Resort:
The cottages are very well equipped. First time I have had a chrome wine bucket on a pedestal and four different types of wine glasses in a timeshare kitchen. Lots of small appliances, too, although there is no dishwasher or garbage disposal. We had a two bedroom unit and the second bedroom is small; two twin beds arranged perpendicularly.
The grounds are lovely, flowers still blooming in December, and there is a wonderful restaurant at the Manor hotel. You can use all the facilities at the hotel. They have a nice pool, sauna, steamroom, exercise room and spa. If you want a massage, make your reservations early.
Resort Experience:
Cornwall is an area of England consisting of dozens of small towns. We were only able to visit a few, but enjoyed all of them. England gets dark early in the winter; by 4pm, it is nighttime. This limited where we could go because the driving at night can be confusing and treacherous. There are no lights, very narrow roads, and local drivers who are in a hurry and don't care. Most everything in Cornwall can be reached within an hour or two by car, but get an early start.
