The cottages enjoy fantastic views down the Thrushell Valley in a peaceful but very accessible location. They also offer exceptional, one of a kind comfort, style and privacy, and are individually furnished and decorated to complement their unique characteristics.

Slate, oak and sandstone floors, WiFi, DVD players and flat-screen TVs with Freeview and surround sound systems complete the luxury of your environment. Private terraces with fabulous garden furniture and barbecues also ensure you relax comfortably. 

Four-legged friends are very welcome and will love roaming the 12 acres of fields that surround the barns, splashing around in the lovely Thrushell Valley, and visiting the dog-friendly pubs and beaches nearby. 

Complete with bubbling private hot tubs and real fires to keep you warm on a cold night, everything you need is provided for a stress-free indulgent break, whether you stay in, visit country houses, sub-tropical Cornish gardens, or enjoy the award-winning pubs and farm shops, all nearby. A welcome basket is even provided on arrival!
