About this property
This gorgeous property is perfect for a romantic couple’s getaway in the Cornish countryside. Located on the outskirts of Bodmin Moor, it's a mere 1.5 miles from the charming village of St Breward, where a welcoming pub and a well-stocked village shop await. The barn conversion (which boasts a wood burner) offers direct access to many walking trails, including the highest peaks in Cornwall – Rough Tor and Brown Willy – with breathtaking panoramic views of both Cornish coasts on clear days.
Step inside this delightful barn conversion, and you will first find yourself in a beautifully light and airy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. The property seamlessly blends original and contemporary features. The living area has an inviting feel with a corner sofa, an additional armchair, and a Smart TV, allowing you to unwind while watching your favourite films after a day of adventure. On cooler evenings, light the wood burner and listen to the crackle and pop of the logs while sipping a warming drink. The dining space provides the perfect venue for a romantic meal that you can rustle up in a kitchen that has all the necessary appliances. Head to the lovely king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room when it is time to rest. Outside, discover a shared courtyard garden: relax on the outdoor seating, enjoy al fresco dining, or toast marshmallows over the fire pit.
Embark on an 18-mile adventure along the picturesque Camel Trail, starting at Wenford Bridge (3 miles) and follow the disused railway line through scenic countryside. Within 15 miles is the pretty coastal village of Rock, which has a sandy beach and is also where you can catch a ferry to bustling Padstow, renowned for its active fishing harbour and exceptional seafood restaurants. If you love the Cornish culture, head 15 miles to Tintagel and explore Merlin's Cave.
