This historic stone cottage is set in beautiful countryside and has tranquil rural views. Within easy reach of sandy beaches, scenic cycling trails and popular coastal towns, it’s an inviting Cornish getaway that’s just perfect for a small family.
Set over three storeys connected by a spiral staircase, the property has an intriguing design, with a double bedroom – which has lovely rural views – and a family shower room situated on the ground floor. Making the most of yet more gorgeous views, the open-plan living space is on the first floor. This inviting room includes a kitchen with a microwave, a dining table for four and a selection of seating. Switch on the wood burner-effect electric fire if you’re feeling chilly, and indulge in an evening of your favourite shows on the Smart TV. Finally, the top storey features a twin room with beds tucked under the sloping ceilings, benefiting from an en-suite WC for convenience. A 5’ high doorway makes this a perfect bedroom for little ones. For anyone bringing bikes or sports equipment, there’s a secure store on the other side of the lane to the cottage, and when you feel like a meal in the fresh air you can take advantage of the BBQ and picnic table on the small lawn to the side of the cottage.
This idyllic escape is just 400 metres along a country lane to the Camel Trail, taking you on foot or by bike to Padstow, 2.5 miles, or Wadebridge, 4 miles. Enjoy stunning views along the route, and don’t miss fresh fish and chips in either town, plus a visit to the shops and galleries. In the traditional Cornish village of St Issey, 1.5 miles, you’ll find a friendly pub that serves home-cooked food.
