About Original Cottages
Report
We're proud of our journey from humble kitchen-table beginnings to national brand. A leader in the market, we've made sure our unique company structure keeps the advantages of personal, local service but with countrywide reach. Spanning north to south, every hill and dale of British countryside and stretch of coastline is covered by our family of regional companies: they know the perfect places to stay, explore and retreat to.
Our Core Values
Report
Nine core values underpin the way we work and guide all that we do, from key business decisions to our relationships with holidaymakers, property owners, partners, suppliers and each other. The Original Cottages' founding brand Norfolk Country Cottages was established by Richard Ellis and his late wife Lesley in 1992 and Richard is still involved as Non-Executive Chairman.
Cornwall
Report
Cornwall is a county for lovers of culture and countryside, the coast and really great cuisine. It's the place that sees the sun set and has heritage and ancient history from east to west. Cornwall is a county of dramatic coastlines and spectacular views. A place where you're never more than twenty miles from the sea, excellent beaches and pretty fishing villages.

It is home to the Lake District National Park, but also includes parts of the Yorkshire Dales, a stretch of Hadrian's Wall and the North Pennines, which is itself an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
