Property code: 78271

This North Cornwall property is situated in an elevated position with spectacular countryside views and glimpses of the sea, this stunning property promises a truly tranquil escape to guests. Spacious and welcoming, this wonderful stone cottage is an opportunity to escape busy life and spend time in a beautiful setting away from the hustle and bustle. Wake up among peaceful decor, head down to the decking and have an al fresco breakfast, taking in the rolling hills around you.

Whether you’re off exploring the walks available from Crackington Haven (1 mile) or dining in the open-plan living area looking out through the huge sliding doors, everyone will find their favourite corner here. The interiors are contemporary yet they embrace fantastic wood beams and superb vaulted ceilings in the bedrooms; stylish tiling in the bathrooms make it a pleasure to bathe or shower in. The open-plan living space is bright and airy during the day but light the wood burner in the evening and it becomes a cosy haven to return to after a long day out and about.

Head down to Boscastle and the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic (5 miles) where children will love seeing the largest collection of witchcraft-related artefacts in the world. Then take a walk along the coast path to Warren Point (5.5 miles) for breathtaking views out to sea. St. Nectan’s Glen (8 miles) is well worth a visit to see the splendid 60-metre waterfall and spot some rare specimens of plant. And for some myth and magic, make sure you visit Tintagel Castle (9.5 miles) and the beach just alongside.

Fantastic views of hills & the sea which makes gorgeous sunsets. Exceptional cleanliness, didn't feel as though it had been stayed in by lots of people. Others have also looked after it. Very hard to leave. Will miss the sheep & the cows.

A fabulous way to spend Christmas. The property was so welcoming, very warm, spotlessly clean and totally relaxing. It didn't matter that the weather outside was blowing a gale we loved coming back to chill out and enjoy our family time together. Beautiful North Cornwall too what's not to like!

We enjoyed a lovely week at St John's View (Tranquil Retreat).. Wall to wall sunshine for the whole week!!! The view is beautiful accompanied with a soundtrack of a babbling stream, birdsong, the distant sound of the sea - all interjected by the occasional bleating of a sheep was lovely.
