Explore South Cornwall’s coast and countryside then unwind in this welcoming rural retreat – just 4.5 miles from Liskeard, it has a bathroom for each of its three bedrooms, a cosy open-plan social space and a pair of pretty garden areas. Pet-friendly, it’s within half a mile of Menheniot’s village inn; leave your cars on the driveway and explore the surrounding leafy lanes at your leisure.
Park and carry your self-catering supplies straight into this Cornish bolthole’s open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner – the exquisite cottage styling is complemented by white-painted beams and triple-aspect windows. You’ll find all the must-haves of home in the kitchen area, which has wooden work surfaces and a peninsula with bar-style seating. Close-by, the modern dining suite is a perfect match for the adjacent dresser and cupboard. Set the dishwasher to work then take a seat in the lounge area to discuss your next day’s plans or stream favourite films on the Smart TV; once sleep-time approaches, three bedrooms are also on the ground floor. Choose between a double with its own en-suite shower room and doors that open directly onto the garden, a second double bedroom with a shower over a short bath, and a twin with an en-suite shower room. Two lovely garden areas extend your living space – make the most of sunny days with breakfast or a BBQ on the patio, and let children and pets enjoy moments of freedom in the enclosed, lawned garden.
For fast-paced family fun head to Adrenalin Quarry, 2.5 miles from the cottage, where zip wires, a giant cliff-top swing and other attractions will satisfy every thrill-seeker. Alternatively, head 8 miles north and discover the dramatic scenery of Bodmin Moor – on its southern fringe, the Golitha Falls National Nature Reserve is home to a series of spectacular cascades and waterfalls along a section of the River Fowey. For coastal day trips drive both Seaton Beach and Looe are within 8 miles.
