This beautiful barn conversion gives a completely different taste of Cornish life, which is one of the reasons it’s so special. Nestled quietly down a lane, surrounded by countryside, it’s not what many people picture when they have a vision of Cornwall. But, if you’re craving the coast, it’s still perfectly accessible by bike or car, depending on your preference (and energy levels!). Hop on your bike and cycle the stunning Camel Trail, situated right next to your cottage. An eighteen-mile stretch overall, this tranquil trail follows a disused railway line through the wooded Camel Valley and can take you all the way to Padstow for your seaside fix. If cycling's not your thing, don’t worry, the A30 is only ten minutes or so away in the car, so you can reach the coast in no time at all. After a day out hiking, cycling and making the most of the nature on your doorstep, head back home where your cottage waits to welcome you. With vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and some seriously funky sofas, you can sit back and relax in your living area as light floods in from outside. If the sun is still shining, head outside to... your seating area with a bottle of wine and settle down for an evening of peaceful quiet and serene conversation, as the sun sets over the fields beside you.
