This idyllic holiday home is nestled in the grounds of a country manor house, on the edge of Bodmin Moor. The pet-friendly property welcomes four guests, and suits both couples and small families, with a sociable, open-plan layout and a charming outdoor dining area. The rural retreat is equidistant from the north and south coasts of Cornwall (20 miles), meaning you’ll be perfectly placed for days out to much-loved seaside resorts such as Looe, Bude, and Fowey. Closer to home, enjoy endless rambles through the remote landscape of Bodmin Moor, highlights of which include the picturesque beauty spot of Golitha Falls (9.5 miles) and the ancient site of Hurlers Stone Circles (7 miles). For shopping and eating out, the historic market town of Launceston is 7 miles away, boasting a great array of independent shops, pubs, cafes, and restaurants.
The converted barn sits alongside four similar holiday homes. Inside, the rural bolthole is decorated in an elegant, country-cottage style, with whitewashed stone walls, traditional wooden furniture, and delicate, floral fabrics. The property has a reverse-level layout, and on the ground floor you’ll find two inviting bedrooms – a king and a twin – both beautifully decorated and styled. Completing the ground floor is a stylish family bathroom. Heading upstairs, discover a bright and spacious living area with a vaulted ceiling and original, exposed trusses. Along one wall is a well-equipped kitchen area, with everything needed to whip up delicious feasts after a day of exploring the local area. Gather at the round, wooden table for family mealtimes, before retiring to the cosy lounge area to watch a film on the Smart TV or read a book in the glow of the wood burner.
Outside, across a small lawn, is a delightful seating area with a BBQ for enjoying al fresco meals. Guests also have access to a shared games room, a children’s play area, and a fenced orchard where dogs can roam free. Through the gate in the orchard you will have the freedom to explore the additional 20 acres leading down to the river Lynher. There is ample private parking.
