Cornwall Letting Agents with Heart and Authentic Care
There is a particular rhythm to Cornwall, a softer way of moving through each day, shaped by tide, light and space. For homeowners, that rhythm matters just as much as it does for guests. At Rowes Retreats, we bring that same calm, steady approach to every property we care for. As Cornwall letting agents with a gentle, human focus, we understand that your holiday home is more than a listing. It is a place held with meaning, history and intention.
We are a family run cottage letting company in Cornwall, shaped by the belief that authenticity and honesty create better experiences for everyone. When you place your home in our care, we honour that trust with clarity, warmth and a deep respect for the landscape and lifestyle that make Cornwall so special.
Our approach is grounded, thoughtful and quietly attentive. We know each home personally. We understand what guests look for when they choose a Cornish stay. Most importantly, we recognise that owners want peaceful, reliable management that never feels rushed or impersonal. Your home deserves to be seen, understood and protected. That is the heart of our work.

Cottage Letting Services Rooted in Cornish Character
Holiday letting in Cornwall works best when it stays connected to the coast, the community and the individuality of each home. We do not operate as a large commercial agency. Instead, we offer a more personal approach where every retreat retains its own voice and charm rather than being shaped into something generic.
Our Cornwall letting services include full listing support, guest communication, changeovers, maintenance coordination and the calm ongoing care that keeps a home running smoothly. We work closely with trusted housekeeping partners who prepare each property with intention, ensuring that arrivals feel peaceful and welcoming.
Each home is presented with simplicity and authenticity. Guests stay for the soft coastal atmosphere, not manufactured perfection. Our listings highlight natural charm, local character and the gentle comfort each property provides. Nothing is forced. Everything feels real.
Whether your home sits above Falmouth’s harbour, rests along the Helford River or nestles in one of Cornwall’s quiet villages, we tailor our management to its setting and personality. No two cottages are the same, and we treat them with the individuality they deserve.
For homeowners, this means honest communication, thoughtful preparation and the reassurance that every detail is handled with care.
Coastal Property Management With Simplicity and Warmth
Cornwall’s coast has a way of shaping moments, routines and the quiet pleasures that define a holiday. When managing a holiday home, that coastal rhythm becomes part of how we work. Our service focuses on creating experiences that unfold naturally, allowing guests to settle quickly into the stillness of the landscape.
As a cottage letting company in Cornwall with a calm and grounded approach, we keep processes straightforward and supportive. From booking management to property upkeep, each step is designed to protect your home while ensuring guests feel looked after from the moment they arrive.
Many properties in our collection sit close to beaches, harbour paths, cafés and local woodland walks. Others offer peaceful privacy tucked away from the busier parts of Cornwall. Wherever your cottage is located, we help guests connect with what makes that area special. We share gentle recommendations, highlight local walks and help them settle into the relaxed pace that Cornwall is known for.
Inside each home, we focus on comfort and practicality. Guests appreciate clean, well organised spaces ready for everyday living. Kitchens are equipped for slow breakfasts, evenings in and simple family meals. Living spaces encourage rest. Outdoor areas are maintained for calm moments in the coastal air.
This level of care creates a meaningful experience for guests while providing owners with confidence, clarity and dependable support throughout the year.

A Family Run Approach to Letting Built on Trust and Care

Rowes Retreats is more than a holiday letting service. It is a family run business shaped by genuine connection, honesty and a quiet dedication to doing things properly. Owners come to us because they want their homes cared for with reliability and respect. Guests return because they feel the difference in the atmosphere and the steadiness behind each stay.
We communicate clearly and kindly, with no rushed processes or overwhelming systems. We understand the importance of smooth changeovers, discreet maintenance and fast responses when needed. Our involvement is present but never intrusive.
We are also here for the long term. Many of the homes we manage carry family stories, treasured memories and deep-rooted connections to Cornwall. We treat that history with care. Owners trust us to maintain their homes thoughtfully. Guests trust us to provide meaningful, authentic stays.
It is a balance built on understanding. Understanding the home. Understanding the coast. Understanding people. That is what guides our approach to being Cornwall, letting agents who truly care.
