Oh we do like to be beside the seaside!!!

At one time I think every man and his dog headed to the seaside towns for their summer break - until the growth in cheap holiday accommodation abroad dented their popularity.But recent studies suggest a dramatic growth in jobs over several decades shows that seaside holidays are very much back in vogue. I believe the enduring popularity of this great British institution lies in our subconscious desire to be beside the seaside.

There is definitely an instinctive pull towards the seaside, and has been for hundreds of years, which is why the seaside is so popular among those who like to live by it and enjoy it, hence the reason Pure Cornwall got in to the Holiday homes for sale market and it so popular that I believe people come back to live by the sea because they usually have such happy memories of their UK holidays.

There is also a tradition of a great love of the seaside and seaside towns among people of this country and other European countries, which is why the resorts developed in the first place. The British love affair with the sea is not new the coastal boom began with the onset of the industrial revolution, which in turn sparked off the concept of the holiday.
But Britain's seaside towns took a dip 20 years ago as a result of our appetite for foreign package holidays..

I think there was a time was a time when you were getting better quality accommodation abroad, but I don't believe that any more. This reflected in many of the luxury Holiday cottages throughout the UK that get booked every year in recent times

Happy New 2010 to all our customers at Pure Cornwall...
Hello everyone from Pure Cornwall.
I hope you all had a brilliant Christmas and New Year ..I know I did and I also know that I ate far too much, especially as we had two Christmas dinners this year to accommodate our large family who come from all over the country to see us.
Well as I was saying the phone is ringing off the hook because busy as we are with our luxury holiday accommodation, property sales and management there is another reason.. our Sales Director...oh yes it's all because our Sales Director went out on Hogmany, sorry that's the Scottish in me, New Years eve in a tutu...not just any old tutu ..a pink tutu. This caused a bit of a stir on the North Cornish coast along with some of his business pals and now the world (ok Cornish) press are trying to get hold of some incriminating photos....Please let me see them if you have any!

Other than that we have had a very good start to the year with our holiday accommodation booking up well and some new properties for sale going on to the website over the next couple of days. We got a fantastic testimonial from one of our home-owners regarding our changeovers...which I have to say the lovely Deborah oversees with a drive for perfection. Think crisp, clean, white Egyptian cotton sheets, think Pure Cornwall property management...your holiday accommodation here in Cornwall will always be to the highest standard! Anyway must go, I am off to see another special holiday cottage...watch this space

Best wishes
