Tucked deep within Cornwall’s lush countryside—where winding lanes, whispering streams and dappled woodland meet—The Goose Nest awaits. Follow a meandering path over a salmon-filled stream and through birdsong filled trees to this lakeside hideaway, where tranquillity flows as freely as the water beside it. Pause, breathe, and take it all in; a flash of kingfisher blue, the quiet glide of a heron, or the soft, shy stir of an otter—nature is your only neighbour here. Inside discover a masterstroke design—handcrafted with care, brimming with rustic elegance and thoughtful luxury. A leather sofa invites you to unwind with views across the lake or indulge in a cosy movie night on the Smart TV. The charming kitchen features a vintage dresser, butler’s sink with antique brass taps, and a mini wood-burning stove for those snug, firelit evenings.

At its heart lies a king-sized bed, a bespoke crafted triumph, nestled above a clever array of drawers. Plush linens, ambient lighting, and a rich palette of deep green tones create a cocoon of comfort. The bathroom continues the storybook charm, with a striking copper basin, brass finishes, and a generous double shower.
Nearby, Cardinham Woods boasts over 650 acres of woodland walks and cycle trails to enjoy. Just a short drive away lies the historic market town of Bodmin, with its array of shops and attractions. Step into the darkly fascinating past at Bodmin Jail, ride the heritage steam railway through wooded glens, or explore the majestic National Trust Lanhydrock House.

Golf enthusiasts will enjoy the local course, while adventurers can cycle the famous Camel Trail all the way to Wadebridge and the iconic harbour town of Padstow, where boutique shops, art galleries, and world-class dining await.
In just 30 minutes, you can reach the south coast and the sweeping sands of St Austell Bay. Discover Charlestown, with its tall ships and historic charm, or wander the golden shores of Watergate Bay with dramatic clifftop walks and amazing sunsets. And no visit would be complete without a trip to the world-renowned Eden Project, where futuristic biomes shelter tropical worlds of wonder
