If you were to sit down and think “Right, if I could create the perfect holiday escape, how would it look?” odds are you’d come close to The Rosevine – come close as I think they’ve probably exceeded the essentials on your list. Located on the south coast of Cornwall, overlooking Gerrans Bay and Portscatho, The Rosevine is a welcoming family-friendly retreat and a very stylish one at that.
The part Georgian house is split into 12 self-contained apartments, suites and studios, which in some instances have separate bedrooms. All have sitting and dining areas and discreet well-equipped kitchen facilities, as well as a flatscreen tv and dvd player. There are sea-views, large French doors that open onto private decked terraces, comfortable beds with Egyptian cotton bed linen and good toiletries to pamper yourself with.
Downstairs the cosy drawing room provides a perfect adult zone – you may just get to flick though a paper while the kids get to enjoy the decadent and shockingly elegant children’s den next door (I aspire to it!) equipped with toys, games, a large screen tv, books, dvd’s and an X Box. There’s also a sunny morning room that adjoins the dining room to relax together in.
