Set in the peace and quiet of the Cornish countryside just on the border with Devon, this pretty property promises a wonderfully relaxing escape to guests. Stylish and contemporary, this wood-panelled holiday home offers the opportunity to embrace a slower pace of life, with views overlooking the Tamar Valley. Wake up among beautiful scenery, grab a cup of coffee and step out onto the purpose-built wooden seating area to watch the sun rise over the hills.
Whether you're dining alfresco on the decking taking in the views, or off on a walk through the owners' 10 acres of land, you're never too far from beautiful countryside here. Stunning vaulted ceilings with exposed wooden beams and calm, neutral colours make the open-plan living area feel fresh and bright. Snuggle up on the comfy sofas in the evening in front of the wood burner and it's soon a cosy haven. Drift off to sleep in one of the indulgent bedrooms; in the morning as soon as you wake up, venture out through the French doors and take in the invigorating fresh air.
After you've explored the pastureland and lake, and exhausted all the available outdoor games, head further to bustling Bude (10 miles) and enjoy all things by the seaside. The tidal pool near Crooklets Beach is well worth a visit. The Tamar Lakes Country Park (12 miles) is a great spot for those looking for a more active holiday with sailing, windsurfing and kayaking available, while RHS Garden Rosemoor is a perfect place for a peaceful walk among pretty shrubs and trees.
