Set within a peaceful countryside estate near the quaint village of Pelynt, this character-filled cottage offers an idyllic base for up to four guests and three canine companions. Guests enjoy access to 50 acres of private grounds with woodland trails, a tranquil lake and abundant wildlife from Canada geese to moorhens. Spend your days exploring fishing villages, lazing on beaches and discovering the region’s rich heritage, then return here to bubble beneath the stars or cosy up by the open fire.
Inside its cholate-box exterior, this charming stone cottage blends rustic charm with homely comforts. Flagstone floors, timber beams and quirky round windows are adorned with antique furniture and floral fabrics for a warm and welcoming stay. After a day out walking the coast path, curl up by the roaring open fire with a glass of wine to watch a film or chat about your adventures. At dinnertime, head to the country-style kitchen to whip up a feast to be savoured at the dining table overlooking the garden. Upstairs, two inviting bedrooms whisper of sweet dreams; choose between a double and a twin, both with restful country views. In keeping with older cottages, the main bathroom is on the ground floor, although there’s a convenient WC upstairs. Outside, a lawned garden with outdoor furniture provides a sunny spot for al fresco drinks and dining, while the private hot tub offers the ultimate spot to unwind beneath starlit skies.
