Property code: 92491

Enjoy a spectacular stay at this elegant home with its private heated swimming pool, characterful interiors and generous gardens. This exceptional property is nestled within the Tamar Valley and welcomes eight friends or family to experience the unspoilt beauty of the Devon countryside.

If you can tear yourself away from the alluring facade of this sophisticated property, then head inside to find the first of three living areas: the suntrap conservatory. Gaze upon the home's pretty lawn and patio on warmer evenings or cosy up in front of the original fireplace in the main lounge. The third living space is ideal for kids and acts as a snuggly spot for a read of your book or a competitive family board game. When tummies begin to rumble, cook up a storm in the open-plan kitchen/diner using the electric range oven and other quality amenities before congregating around the table to dine. Upstairs, the four delightful bedrooms exude charm and taste; three double bedrooms and a queen-size room all offer ample storage and a country-style ambience. In the morning, wake yourselves up with a dip in the private heated swimming pool before tucking into a light breakfast alfresco.

Keen walkers and ramblers will be in their element as they venture out of the front door and into the enchanting haven of Tamar Valley National Landscape. Stroll the extensive network of footpaths and trails through awe-inspiring countryside and ancient woodlands. Recharge with the humble cream tea in one of the cafes and tearooms available across the valley. Nearby, Cotehele Estate and Kit Hill Country Park offer a fascinating day out for history enthusiasts, both within 6 miles, while adrenaline fanatics may want to experience trekking, cycling and horseriding in Dartmoor (5 miles).

This is a lovely house in a beautiful setting. Very quiet with local walks nearby. The pool was fantastic, heated and in doors. The house is very large and plenty of room for all. The kitchen is very well equipped, probably the best weve ever seen in terms of gadgets.

Had a nice time at Marquis House. Although the Tamar Trails is up the road, there are similar walks at the bottom of the garden past the fence. The pool was a nice addition, enjoyed by all, although a tad chilly. There is a Yamaha CVP98 digital piano which was fun!! Nice and spacious for 2 dogs and 3-4 adults. Also quite quiet and generally peacefuRead morel. We would stay there again and were sad to leave. Use the Tesco at Callington ... its massive. Cotehel House is worth a visit. Pleasant owners. Hide

Lovely stay at The Marquis. Our 2 dogs giving it 5 stars as they loved it. We all enjoyed the pool which was perfect for family volleyball games. Tesco and Morrisons deliver if like us, your car is fully loaded. The owner is lovely and responds quickly to queries.

The cottage was very comfortable and in a lovely quiet location. The pool was excellent. The owner was friendly and had left us tea, coffee, milk, fruit juice, etc. etc. which we found very useful. We enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate in recommending the cottage to anyone else.
