Tucked away in a quiet hamlet, this charming cottage is a great choice for families and groups of friends looking to get out and about across the idyllic North Cornwall countryside and coastline. The sleepy hamlet of Trelights is one of Cornwall’s quieter corners, offering a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The fishing village of Port Isaac (4 miles), set in a steep-sided valley, remains almost untouched by time, with winding streets lined with shops and eateries. Port Isaac’s small beach is perfect for rock pooling when the tide is out. The renowned Polzeath Beach, where you can build sandcastles, sunbathe or paddle along the shore, is also within 4 miles. Made famous by its medieval castle ruins and historic links to Arthurian legend, the village of Tintagel (10 miles) is a playground for history buffs, nature lovers and walkers alike.
Behind the cottage’s rustic exposed stonework, you’ll find a haven of homely charm. Kick off your walking boots and hang up your coat in the entrance hallway, which leads to a delightful twin bedroom and a contemporary shower room. You’ll also find a handy utility room on this level. Heading upstairs, you’re met with a sleek and stylish kitchen/diner, ideal for budding chefs eager to get creative with local produce. The rest of the first floor encompasses a spacious lounge, where an open fire sets the scene for relaxation. Stretch out on the sumptuous corner sofa to watch the Smart TV, or enjoy a game of table tennis, with a table situated at one end of the room. From the far end of the lounge, another set of stairs leads down to the other half of the ground floor, which boasts two further bedrooms, one king-size and one twin. A sophisticated family bathroom completes this homely hideaway.
Make the most of your stunning setting by exploring the extensive surrounding garden, where winding paths are perfect for an early morning walk or moonlit stroll. Outdoor seating provides the perfect spot for al fresco dining and evening tipples while admiring the peaceful countryside surroundings.
