A Cornish Christmas

Nestled in the Cornish village of Cloudsea, sits Sea Cottage – the perfect place for some Christmas magic …



At last Ivy is looking forward to Christmas.  She and her husband Stuart have moved to their perfect little cottage by the sea - a haven alongside the rugged cliffs that look out to the Atlantic Ocean.   She’s pregnant with their much-longed for first baby and for the first time, since the death of her beloved mother, Ivy feels like things are going to be alright.

But there is trouble ahead.  It soon emerges that Stuart has been keeping secrets from Ivy, and suddenly she misses her mum more than ever.  

When Ivy stumbles across a letter from her mother hidden in an old writing desk, secrets from the past come hurtling into the present.  But could her mother’s words help Ivy in her time of need?   Ivy is about to discover that the future is full of unexpected surprises and Christmas at Sea Cottage promises to be one to remember. 

This Christmas warm your heart and escape to the Cornish coast for an uplifting story of love, secrets and new beginnings that you will remember for many Christmases to come.
