13 Manorcombe Bungalows

A detached single-storey bungalow at Honicombe Holiday Village near Gunnislake in the Tamar Valley, sleeping 6 in three bedrooms. The 20-acre estate includes two heated pools, a gym, games room, shop, and on-site pub - more resort infrastructure than a standard self-catering complex. Prices from GBP430 per week.

Inside, the open-plan living space has two sofas, an electric fire, and a wall-mounted TV. The kitchen has a glass dining table and a washing machine. Three bedrooms - one double and two twins - share a shower room and a separate cloakroom. Everything is on one level, which makes the layout work well for guests with limited mobility or families with pushchairs.

A front patio provides outdoor seating. The indoor heated pool has a toddler splash pool alongside the main pool; there is also an outdoor pool for summer. The Tamar Valley Line railway runs through Gunnislake to Plymouth - a 40-minute journey through river gorge scenery.

The nearest beaches are Downderry Beach and Whitsand Bay, both 19.3 km south. Whitsand Bay has 4 miles of south-facing sand, lifeguarded in summer. The National Trust's Cotehele estate, with its 1,300 acres of woodland and medieval hall, is a short drive. Best for families who prioritise on-site facilities and Tamar Valley scenery. Less suited to those wanting coastal access without a 20-minute drive.
