This open-plan retreat cottage stands in rural beauty on a large farm estate in Lanlivery. From here, a wide choice of South Cornwall's day trip destinations await you. It's ideal for a couples' break or as extra accommodation for families booking the other cottage property here. For some quiet contemplation you have access to fishing on the idyllic lake.

The kitchen/dining/living room features exposed stonework, large windows to let the sun stream in, a wood floor and a comfy leather sofa for evenings curled up with TV and wood burner. Overall, it's a bright and cheerful space ideal for two. Outside you can linger over breakfast on the enclosed patio garden, before heading out for a stroll on the farm or by the pond, which is a wildlife haven.

You're placed just 2 miles from the Luxulyan Valley, rich in early industrial remains, as well as 7 miles from Charlestown Harbour, with tall ships, smaller traditional sailing craft and the Shipwreck Museum – both World Heritage Sites. Water activities abound at bustling Fowey, 8 miles away, and further up Fowey River at Lerryn within 6 miles. Locally, a path across two fields brings you to a charming village pub in Lanlivery, or for an extra-special evening, Lostwithiel just 3 miles away has a choice of fine dining.
