West Country delights including walks, bike riding routes and marvellous beaches can be found in this barn conversion cottage on the Cornwall-Devon border. This family-ready property invites four guests to spend memorable times together, complete with space indoors and out for cosy nights or summer afternoons, perfect for holidays at any time of year.

Let yourselves into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner where slow mornings and restful evenings can be enjoyed together.

From one of the bedrooms, you’ll find a balcony with steps leading out and into the enclosed garden. Home to a pretty lawn and a furnished patio, you’ll love spending warm weather nights unwinding out here.

Also nearby, Roadford Lake (9 miles) invites visitors to take part in some thrilling water sports including paddleboarding and kayaking, or just offers a place for keen anglers to sit and while away an afternoon by peaceful waters.

The cottage is fantastic, we really enjoyed our stay and we felt secure in the fact that our cockapoo was settled in the property with no means of escape.

A beautiful cottage and really well equipped. Our children loved playing on the trampoline and watching the sheep and cows. The owner was away when we stayed, but her parents were on hand when needed and were just lovely, welcoming people. Lots of places to visit within 30 minutes. We visited Bude, Tintagel Castle, Boscastle, Lydford Gorge (just beRead moreautiful). We had one rainy day, but felt grateful for a day to laze around in the beautiful accommodation. Fully recommend this holiday let. Hide

Beautiful cottage in a great location for exploring north Cornwall. Our girls loved watching life on a real farm, and our own wee garden area as well as use of the trampoline was great. Finding scones, jam and cream waiting for us on arrival made our day.
