It was a real pleasure to stay in (here) with Jennifer Bibby last July to chat all about her debut novel The Cornish Hideaway and I’m delighted to share my review for My Weekly online today.
Published in paperback by Simon and Schuster on 230th March 2023, The Cornish Hideaway is available for purchase through the links here.
The Cornish Hideaway

All Freya has ever wanted to do is paint. So when she fails her Master’s Degree in Art, on the same day that her boyfriend decides he needs a ‘more serious’ partner, to Freya it feels like the end of the world.
Luckily, she has a saviour in the shape of best friend Lola, who invites her to the sleepy Cornish village of Polcarrow, to work in her café. With nothing keeping her in London, Freya jumps at the chance of a summer by the sea.
Freya needs time to focus on herself. But then dark and mysterious biker Angelo blows into town on a stormy afternoon, with his own artistic dreams and a secretive past, and Freya’s plans of a romance-free summer fly straight out of the window…
Heart-warming, heartfelt and romantic, The Cornish Hideaway is a novel of community, friendship and learning to love again, for fans of Jenny Colgan, Cathy Bramley and Heidi Swain.
My Review of A Cornish Hideaway
My full review of The Cornish Hideaway can be found on the My Weekly website here.
However, I can say that The Cornish Hideaway is a gorgeous escapist read that will have you packing your bags and heading to Polcarrow. I loved it!
