  • One of four bespoke holiday cottages set in the grounds of an impressive country house estate with an incredible communal heated outdoor swimming pool
  • Just a short drive of a number of spectacular coves and beaches including Mullion and Poldhu Cove
  • A walker's paradise with rolling countryside and the South West Coast Path to discover

Property code: OC-41381

Surrounded by a 23-acre estate, this delightful barn conversion offers a peaceful retreat for romantic getaways for two. Discover the many quaint fishing villages, coves and beaches that this tranquil part of South Cornwall has to offer before returning to base for a relaxing swim in the shared outdoor pool.

Inside, the accommodation offers a tasteful blend of old and new, as a modern kitchen and open-plan lounge/diner combine with exposed ceiling beams and oak floorboards. Wake in the cosy double bedroom before heading outside for a reviving morning swim in the shared pool. After a day of exploring, dine alfresco in the charming shared courtyard or pack a picnic and stroll past fields of sheep, horses and chickens to find a peaceful spot to eat.

Located on the spectacular Lizard Peninsula, this area is steeped in maritime and smuggling history with plenty of stories to tell. Head towards the coast to visit the popular Mullion (4 miles) and Poldhu (2 miles) coves before stopping for an ice cream in the quaint fishing village of Porthleven. Ditch the car for a day and follow the breathtaking South West Coast Path or enjoy a day out at the popular attractions of The Eden Project (40 miles) or Tate Gallery St Ives (20 miles).

This is a lovely cottage, perfect for a couple. It was spotlessly clean on arrival and we were provided with a goody basket of freshly made scones jam and clotted cream. In addition there was a fresh cob loaf, butter and coffee all sourced locally. It made for a really warm welcome. The kitchen was well equipped and all the glasses cutlery and crocRead morekery were spotless. The bedroom overlooked the valley and was tastefully furnished, light and airy.
