This charming barn conversion is a lovely hideaway for couples seeking a romantic base close to the wild North Cornwall coast. Set within a small collection of characterful properties just 2.5 miles from Crackington Haven, it offers a peaceful setting to retreat to after days spent exploring beaches, cliff-top paths and pretty coastal towns.
Set around a small courtyard with a handful of other holiday cottages, this former barn has been lovingly converted with reclaimed wooden floors and exposed beams offering a nod to its heritage. Mid-century-inspired furnishings and plenty of homely touches add style and comfort. Spend quality time with your loved one in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining room, curled up on the sofa watching TV, rustling up home-cooked treats in the fitted kitchen or lingering over leisurely suppers at the intimate dining table. When night falls, get cosy under the covers of the romantic four-poster bed for a blissful night’s sleep before a refreshing shower or leisurely soak in the bathtub leaves you ready for fresh adventures. A small seating area at the front offers a peaceful spot for a morning cuppa or evening tipple, and guests have access to a shared games room along with 36 acres of woodland and one allocated parking spot.
Crackington Haven’s sand-and-shingle cove (2.5 miles) invites rock-pooling and seaside strolls, while surfers will be drawn to Widemouth Bay’s broad sandy beach (6.5 miles). Follow the South West Coast Path to Boscastle (6 miles) to see the picturesque harbour and visit the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic, or venture to Bude (9 miles) to swim in the famous tidal pool and wander canal-side paths. Tintagel Castle (12 miles) promises Arthurian legend and spectacular sea views.
