About this property

Mabe Burnthouse 2.3 miles. Positioned in the small village of Treverva in Cornwall, is this pleasant, detached home, Moorstone. Enjoying a large and enclosed garden to enjoy alfresco dining in the sunshine and unspoiled countryside views, this dwelling is perfect for families. Be greeted by a spacious driveway, where you can leave your vehicle, before entering into the hallway; here you can kick off your shoes, ready to explore. Discover the sitting room, with a crackling woodburning stove and a smart TV to play family favourites, the ideal place to unwind after a day filled with fun. Moving through your holiday home, locate the navy blue kitchen/diner; here you can make use of the electric oven and hob to conjure culinary delights and there is a dishwasher to do the cleaning up for you. Gather at the dining table to tuck-into a home-cooked meal, as you chatter about the highlights of the day; afterwards why not savour a cold beverage out on the grass? The garden is ideal for your children to let off some steam whilst the adults soak in the sun from the picnic bench. As the evening cools, retire inside and locate the utility room with a washing machine to freshen up your clothes for the day ahead and storage for surfboards. Head upstairs and you can prepare for a night's embrace in the shower room before taking your pick between three well-presented bedrooms. There is a sage green king-size, a double and a twin bedroom, all with ample storage and views overlooking the greenery. In the morning, savour a cup of tea in the sunroom to relish your peaceful setting and why not escape into the pages of a book? Moorstone is located next to a reservoir, so you can awaken tired eyes with a quaint morning stroll and enjoy a home-cooked breakfast at the lakeside cafe, Wild Vibes Argal. All your amenities can be found in the hamlet of Mabe, home to a well-stocked convenience store and a welcoming, pet-friendly pub, The New Inn. Venture to Falmouth, a vibrant and colourful town, hosting a stunning coastline and the dramatic Pendennis Castle, Falmouth is also home to the National Maritime Museum Cornwall and the Falmouth Art Gallery. There are plenty of shops, bars and restaurants to explore, and the town is a great base for exploring the rest of Cornwall. Also worth a trip is the city of Truro, a charming and historic city with plenty of attractions to keep you busy. For a place to celebrate connection and creativity, head to Chyan Cultural Centre, or visit Kernow Adventure Park, Cornwall’s hidden outdoor activity centre located in Kessel Quarry, then why not pop down to Skinner's Brewery and Tap Yard Bar for a taste of true Cornish brew. For some retail therapy, be sure to check out the shops and cafés in the city centre. For memorable getaway, consider Moorstone.

A little hamlet located 4 miles from Falmouth's marine town and harbour. Rolling meadows, country lanes, and hazy, atmospheric creeks wind their way inland from the sea through deep, wooded valleys characterise the surrounding region. The location is ideal for those who enjoy beautiful scenery, boating, and long walks in the countryside. Falmouth will keep you entertained for hours with its stunning natural harbour (the world's third largest), winding alleys, and beaches. The picture is completed with old harbour-side bars, superb shopping, Pendennis Castle, and the spectacular new National Maritime Museum.
