Extra Amenities

You will be warmly welcomed to this charming, intimate and ‘dinky’ barn conversion, with original wooden beams, and natural air conditioning via the old stable door. Once through the old wooden stable door you instantly appreciate the serenity away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Perfect for a couple, the single room comprises a wonderfully comfortable kingsized bed, overlooking the grounds through patio doors. If you are lucky, when you arrive you may be welcomed by Fudge, the owner’s dog. He is aptly named ’the butler’ as he has been known to show guests around the grounds on many an occasion! Located high up in the Tamar Valley, The Tamar Orchard barn is the ideal rural retreat to enjoy the ‘horticultural treasure trove gardens of Sandhill House, with its formal water garden, summer house and open fields overlooking the truly, stunning but hidden Tamar Valley.

Views of the world-renowned Dartmoor National Park entice you to explore, beyond your ‘sanctuary’.
Set in the heart of Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the Cornwall and west Devon Mining Heritage site, Gunnislake’s very own railway station, is just at the end of the carriage drive.

The picturesque Tamar Valley line offers breath-taking views all the way to the historic naval city of Plymouth, with its huge range of restaurants on the Elizabethan Barbican, attractions and shops. The ancient market town of Tavistock, the home of Sir Francis Drake and the National Trust owned Cotehele House and Gardens are both just 4 miles away, whilst the fishing village of Looe with harbour, narrow streets and beach is just 20 miles away. The riverside village of Calstock, which is just 2 miles away has cruising boats taking you down the idyllic, unspoilt Tamar River, to Plymouth Harbour, in the summer months.
