Cornwall is known as one of the UK’s favorite summer destinations. The sparkling blue waters, golden beaches, and picturesque fishing villages turn this English peninsula into a refreshing experience, besides having the perfect views for your travel photos. It takes a little more than four hours by train to get to London, leaving from the only city around, Truro. Beyond the striking coastline, some attractions make this destination truly unique, like the open-air clifftop Minack Theatre and the world-renowned experimental garden Eden Project. Enjoy the sandy beaches and surf-ready waves in a refreshing vacation while staying at the top log cabins in Cornwall, UK, listed below.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 09, 2024.
