Riverside and lakeside cottages in Cornwall

Riverside and lakeside cottages in Cornwall

From tranquil escapes on the banks of the River Fowey to lochside cottages in Scotland, there’s something rather lovely about a getaway by the water. Feel your stresses and strains fade away with your waterside stay, best spent soaking up the glorious views, watching the local wildlife, indulging in sun-drenched waterside picnics, and kayaking or paddle boarding along the glassy water. Sounds just perfect, doesn’t it?

Our exclusive ferry discounts of up to 25% will make your island trip with Classic plain sailing.
