About the host
Hosted by Amy Tucker Brown
Hello, I am Amy Tucker Brown of Queenwood Holidays and i manage a collection of our privately owned holiday homes on Retallack Resort, Cornwall.
I have been managing holiday homes on Retallack Resort for over 15 years and hope to deliver you the highest experience possible with excellent service and beautiful houses.
Creating Memories
I am passionate about creating memorable breaks in wonderful holiday homes and understanding the value of time away, Queenwood Holidays opened in 2018.
After 10 years of enjoyment designing, developing and managing Retallack Resort in Cornwall, delivering a bespoke, curated holiday service is my dream!
Concierge by Amy
As a mother of two fun-loving energetic young boys, I’ve learnt over the years much of what families need on a Cornish resort holiday. This helped me shape the resort, its offering to our guests and how very valuable a concierge service is. For both busy families and groups of friends prior to their breaks away, the holiday planning sets us apart. We love to assist with any of our guests’ holiday needs, my small team and I at Queenwood Holidays offer a completely free concierge service.
We are here to help from booking restaurants and spa appointments to assisting with surf schools to private chefs. If you need any help from a birthday cake to a babysitter, please just ask. Many of our clients travel with children therefore equipping the homes with all parents could need from cots and stair gates is vital. My concierge service helps with ideas on where to go, what to see to kids activities and hiring babysitters.
Each holiday home is chosen by myself. Each beautifully designed, perfect for friends to gather, families to relax in and create memories together. I take great pride in delivering luxurious holidays through our private resort collection, ensuring every guest a 5-star holiday experience.

Why they chose this property
Golden sandy beaches, buckets and spades, surf lessons, delicious food and time together. Memories we treasure on our Cornish Holidays. Whether children or grandparents, many of these stay the same, perhaps with surf lessons swapping for beach walks! Queenwood Holidays is passionate about delivering you the most wonderful Cornwall holiday. From the moment you book, to the first foot on the sand to the last surf of your stay.
The North Cornwall Coastal Path is alive with flora and fauna, as well as the myths and legends from its past. My Favourite is a circular walk, Constantine Bay to Porthcothan via a natural pool at Treyarnon beach, views of tiny islands, headlands and tiny coves named after wine. High on the list is across dunes and headland between Rock and Polzeath returning via St Enodoc Church where Sir John Betjeman is buried. We love the iwalkcornwall suggestions, well worth a look!
The North Cornwall coastline is glittered with sand, on sunny days the water shines like the Caribbean, in winter wrap up for stunning walks, throughout the summer the beaches are perfect for sandcastles, sun bathing and sunny strolls.
WaterGate Bay close to Retallack Resort is a huge stretch of golden sand backed by high cliffs, perfect for surfers, families and swimmers. The next bay along is Mawgan Porth, the perfect family beach with lots of rockpools, caves and even a large stream running down the southern side of the beach. Both are dog friendly, great parking and wonderful restaurants, coffee shops and beach stores. Porthcothan is an expanse of open space perfect for families with a sandy beach that opens out at low tide to connect up with small coves to the north and south. Daymer Bay at Rock, sand dunes sit along the estuary, a calm stretch for walks and relaxation.

What makes this property unique
SandPipers on Retallack Resort has a logburner in the living room, a sauna and a hot tub on the terrace!
SandPipers has always been one of my favourites on Retallack Resort. Unique to the rest of the resort with the added luxury of a huge terrace with lakeside views for dreamy nights watching the stars from the hot tub and cosy evenings by the log fire. The sauna next to the hot tub is well loved by guests, after long coastal walks. For evenings outside enjoy the protection of the lit cabana, inside the gorgeous colours of mustards and blues remind me of the sea and sand, warm and comforting.
Dog friendly and sleeping four with two ensuite bedrooms, the stylish interior of SandPipers is complimented by many luxury highlights. After days on the beach return to your luxury lodge. After the the beach, warm up by your log burner in the lounge. Spend days relaxing outside on the large terrace with Hot Tub and Sauna and relaxed seating. Capturing sun all day, dine with family and friends on the terrace and enjoy lake views. Bubble away in the hot tub by day and then as evening falls watch the skies fill with stars. The sauna is perfect to warm up for instance after a winter walk or workout at the complimentary resort Gym. The cabana is ideal for shade in the day, however it acts as perfect canopy at night to dine alfresco by the lake .
