This beautiful area of Cornwall really is a hidden gem and upon arrival you will be immediately wowed by the spectacular, uninterrupted countryside and high moorland panoramas that surround the cottage’s glorious south facing gardens, who’s colourful flowerbeds and extensive, level lawns attract an abundance of wildlife. With no near neighbours, the silence is broken only by birdsong, providing the perfect atmosphere for unwinding and relaxation away from the hubbub.
Inside, the cottage’s bright, well-equipped kitchen invites you to relax on the veranda’s swing seat. The dining room and hallway have Cornish Delabole slate floors, and the sitting room’s large leather sofas welcome you. Upstairs offers two sumptuous king-size bedded rooms which both have 400 thread count designer bedding, plump goose down duvets (hypoallergenic available on request), a selection of pillows and fluffy, white, 100% Egyptian cotton towels, all of which combine to make this the perfect hideaway.

Exclusively designed for just two guests, the two kingsized bedded rooms are ideal for couples, couples who cannot sleep in the same bed, but whom both deserve the luxury of a kingsized bed, two friends travelling together, or an adult and a 16+ years old child.

Neighbouring villages include Pensilva, with moorland horse riding for all abilities, Minions with the ancient Hurlers stone circles and the Cheesewring rocks, all offering astonishing views of Cornwall to the coast.
