The Duchy of Cornwall

Guard House, Isles of Scilly

The Duchy of Cornwall, established in 1337 by Edward III, is a private estate from which the proceeds fund the public, charitable and private activities of The Prince of Wales and his family.  Consisting of approximately 55,000  hectares in 23 counties, mostly in the South West of England, as well as the Isles of Scilly and Wales, the Duchy offers luxury holiday cottages that are tastefully decorated with modern amenities, lovely gardens and spectacular vistas with an aim to be eco-friendly and environmentally sensitive.
