Property code: OC-F45947

Located close to the River Tamar, this delightful retreat for two is a cosy base for exploring the Tamar valley area of natural beauty and south Cornwall and Devon.  The bustling town of Saltash is just 3 miles away, from Saltash Pier you can catch a ferry across the Tamar to Plymouth’s historic Barbican to discover the city’s rich maritime heritage and stroll around The Hoe. Close by is the pretty village of St Mellion with its renowned golf course. The south coast of Cornwall is dotted with picture-postcard fishing villages, including Polperro and Looe (19 miles). Sample fresh seafood and wander the traffic-free streets soaking up the atmosphere. For somewhere a little more off the beaten track, head to the Rame Peninsula (17 miles), where you’ll find quiet beaches and former smuggling villages to explore. Other attractions in the area include the Lost gardens of Heligan, the Eden Project and many National Trust properties.  Adrenaline Quarry is also nearby, offering open water swimming, zip lines and go-carting.

Take four external steps up to the entrance of this charming bijou base and step inside to find an open-plan studio layout. Exposed ceiling beams add rustic charm, while skylights provide natural illumination to the space. At one end of the room is a contemporary kitchen, equipped with an air fryer and other cooking essentials, plus a coffee machine for your daily caffeine fix. Next to this, a couple of cosy armchairs and a coffee table create a comfortable spot for drinks and nibbles, while you can watch the Smart TV from the comfort of the king-size bed. Just off this space is a vintage-style shower room for energising soaks to wake you up in the morning.

The outside space has a covered seating area and BBQ for enjoying sizzling treats. On cooler evenings, keep warm beside the wood burner as you watch day turn into night. Parking for one car is provided in the allocated space at the front of the property.

A lovely dog friendly Barn Conversion. Lovely unobtrusive owners. Outside seating area with woodburner and a BBQ. Cushions and Blankets provided for those cooler evenings when you cant be bothered to light the burner. Ideally situated for exploring Devon and Cornwall. Lots of good Pubs to eat at. The Rising Sun in the village is a 5 minute walk, Read moredogs welcome, no food, but occasional pop ups throughout the year, so always worth checking before eating elsewhere. Its a lovely pub for a drink and a mardle. A small welcome pack including milk and treats for the dogs was most welcome. Read the welcome folder. Lots of good ideas for food and days out. Hide

We spent a lovely week in Wayne and Amanda's delightfully converted small barn. Four Shilling Barn is finished to a high standard, is well equipped and very cosy. The location is incredibly peaceful and idyllic, sitting next door to the local church. It is also within easy reach of a host of wonderful places to visit. The property has a fabulous gaRead morerden room with views of the large garden and beyond and is especially magical at night when the wood stove is lit. Pets are welcome and our small dog loved roaming around the garden. Amanda and Wayne are particularly friendly and welcoming hosts and helped make our week in Four Shilling Barn one that we will remember fondly. Hide

Great barn with good quality fittings/fixtures. Hosts very helpful and accessible. Slightly disappointed that no direct access onto outdoor bbq area, but still accessible via only barn door and round the building. Barn was spotless and sparkling. Would recommend and rate it highly.
