Cornish Gems, the luxury holiday letting company, understands the modern holiday market and offers choices that give multi-generational families and 'framilies' a plethora of options to max out budget and quality time in stunning coastal and country locations, with luxury at their fingertips.

The shape of the modern family and how they holiday is constantly changing. Grandparents are living much longer active lives and helping to care for their grandchildren (in and out of term time), more mothers are back in full time employment, single parent families and re-marriages with second waves of children change the numbers when it comes to beds needed. There is also huge pressure for value for money with people demanding holidays that can do more for them on a budget.

More often than not, extended families are looking for fabulously flexible holiday options so family and friends can drop in and out of the getaway as and when their hectic schedules allow. Cornish Gems are seeing more and more multi-generational holidays where the 'silver surfer' grandparents make the most of their retirement time, bringing their grandchildren, and the family dog, down for a full two week break.  Then mums, dads, aunts, uncles and 'framily ' members drop in for long weekends, or parts of the holiday, when they can get away from the office.   

Choosing the freedom of a holiday home near the beach, with big gardens and the space to welcome all members of the family including four legged friends, means everyone can enjoy hassle free long holidays or short breaks throughout the year. The Cornish Gems collection of outstanding seaside apartments, coastal lofts, cosy country cottages and manor houses across the county in jaw dropping locations really hit the spot for multi-generational family holidays at astoundingly good prices per person per night.

MAX THE BUDGET on some surprisingly affordable coastal retreats, sumptuous barn conversions, modern coastal abodes and manor houses. A lovely holiday home with the option for the neighbouring apartment or annex means the grandparents can stay without the feeling of being under each other's feet. With prices from under £100 per person for a whole week for a family of six in low season, holiday homes offer incredible value for money.
