When the schools have broken up for the summer, the service we provide for you can be even greater. During July and August if you want, we can install a chef at Shores House so your holiday is even more relaxing. No more cooking, no washing up. For starters, there’s a sumptuous breakfast: a real feast. Later in the afternoon when you come home, you’ll be greeted by the aroma of a freshly-baked cake. Then we’ll give the kids their tea at whatever time suits them. And finally, we will serve a terrific evening meal, rounded off with a groaning platter of local Cornish cheeses.

Cornwall has become one of the greatest centres in Britain for “foodie” companies. Everyone knows that Cornish seafood is unrivalled, but down here you’ll also find superb, award-winning organic beef, lamb, fruit and vegetables. Your chef will assemble mouth-watering menus for the week, designed around your individual requirements: from local charcuterie to applewood smoked cheese.
