Launceston itself is known as being the ancient capital of Cornwall and offers a range of shops and pubs as well as a castle and an excellent 18-hole golf course (St. Stephen’s). Also, Roadford Lake and Colliford Reservoir, both within a 30-minute drive are regarded as some of the best brown trout fisheries in England. Perfectly placed close to the Devon/Cornwall border and within a short drive of the A30, it provides a convenient location from which to explore both counties and the north and south coasts. Head north and enjoy the beautifully rugged coastline and long sandy beaches including Crackington Haven only a half an hour drive away. Other attractions and places of interest easily accessible from here include the pretty fishing villages of Boscastle, Tintagel and Port Isaac, the stunning Camel Valley and Camel Valley Vineyard, Launceston Golf Club and Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor.

Step inside this delightful property and you will immediately find yourself in the welcoming entrance hall which boasts a selection of boot and coat storage. Here you can decant after a day exploring coast or country. Located next to this there is an undeniably useful utility room offering further storage and a washing machine. Now head up the stairs and onto the first floor where the accommodation opens into a beautifully light and airy loft-style apartment, with the first area being a brilliantly appointed kitchen with an electric oven and hob, microwave and a fridge/freezer. Located just beyond this is the spacious lounge/diner which includes comfortable seating arranged around a Smart TV, plus a dining area that provides a perfect venue for relaxed meals. For gorgeous views of the church spire, step into the bedroom which has been lovingly presented and includes a double bed plus a generous amount of built-in storage. Located on the other side of the lounge area and completing the property, is a bathroom with shower over bath and WC.

Venturing back outside, you will find that the property sits within the owner’s grounds but is neatly separated by hedges to ensure privacy.

We had such a lovely, peaceful stay at Church View. Jill was so welcoming and we had everything we needed at the cottage. It was so quiet which we really appreciated, you cannot hear a thing apart from the occasional owl at night! The cottage is so well equipped and had everything we needed. The bed is also super comfy and there was plenty of storaRead morege space. Was also nice to have a bath! We will definitely come back should we stay in Cornwall again. Hide

My dog and I loved our stay at Church View. It was peaceful, comfortable and immaculate. The central location meant it was easy to get to both north and south coasts or to venture further west.

Had a wonderful week. The accommodation was excellent and the setting was superb. The town was close by with plenty to see and do. There are walks close by or a short drive away. The hosts are both friendly and helpful and were there to give us a warm welcome as was Sam the dog. Would definitely go back again if staying in the area.

Very clean comfortable and peaceful. We was very lucky with the weather and could sit outside after a full day visiting different places around Cornwall and Devon. The Owners are very friendly and Sam the dog,but they leave you alone to enjoy your holiday,but we really enjoyed our conversations we had with them.

A very good cottage in a lovely setting a short drive off a main road in St Stephens, Launceston. Good WiFi connectivity and well equipped kitchen and bathroom. Good size living accommodation and bedroom. The Owners are very friendly and helpful too. We keep going back... and that says it all!

We have stayed at Church View several times and it is always excellent. A lovely cottage in a rural setting but within close proximity to Launceston. Very well equipped for staying in and the location is excellent for exploring Cornwall and West Devon.

We had a lovely time at Church View. Our host were really nice and their dog Sam always greeted us excitedly friendly. Although the cottage is next to the main house, it was very private and quiet, except for the sheep's bleaking from time to time on the field next to the house. We would return any time!

I loved this cottage & its rural location just 15 min walk to town. Set over 2 floors, has ample space & light with every facility you could possibly need. Hosts - helpful & charming, clearly put much thought into equipping cottage. Launceston perfect for exploring further afield & next to 2 lovely churches. Terrific shower plus a deep bath. Bed noRead moret ideal for my arthritic back but fine for 95+% of guests. Great internet speed 70/8Mbps. Would most definitely revisit; so very very sad to leave! Hide

Owners were really friendly and helpful. The cottage is sited in the grounds of an old victorian vicarage and is very secluded. The location of the cottage is great for discovering North Cornwall and we very much enjoyed our visits to Tintagel, Cotehele and Bude just to name a few.
