About this property
Badgers Rest is a charming 18 x 8 foot shepherd's hut on the outskirts of Tintagel in Cornwall and offers a peaceful location with coastal walks from the front door to Boscastle & Port Isaac including Trebarwith Strand, Nectans Glen & Rocky Valley. With a wood-fired hot tub and a beautifully manicured garden, the hut is ideal for a couple, keen walkers or the solo traveller. The hut is a studio-style with a double bed that folds away to give you a dining table to eat at while you plan your itinerary. There's also a sitting area in front of a toasty woodburning stove and a kettle and toaster for your morning tea and toast. Outside, the garden provides a wonderful space to unwind, with the hot tub and sun loungers for resting and the dining seating for an alternative eating arrangement. Get to know your surroundings by walking into the heart of Tintagel, a charming coastal town in Cornwall that is home to a variety of attractions, restaurants and bars, including the fantastic Cornishman Inn and the Italian restaurant of The Olive Garden. The town is known for its dramatic cliffs and access to brilliant attractions, including Tintagel Castle, a must-see attraction, and Bossiney Cove, along with a few National Trust properties within the town, such as Tintagel Old Post Office and Merlin's Cave. Venture to Camelford for the day and experience its rich history and stunning natural beauty here, you'll find attractions like Davidstow Airfield and the Cornwall at War Museum, as well as beautiful parks like Enfield Park. Wadebridge isn't far, a thriving seaside town with plenty to offer visitors; the attractions here are Pencarrow House and Garden, St Breock Downs Monolith and the glorious Cornish coastline. There are some superb sights to see nearby, from the St Nectans Glen Waterfalls to the stunning Trebarwith Beach; you'll rarely be bored here! Badgers Rest is a pleasant property for a quiet break.
Tintagel is a popular tourist destination because of the legendary King Arthur's Castle, whose ruins dominate the cliffside just outside the village. The sea, rocky coves, and breathtaking scenery dominate the surrounding area. Several beaches, including nearby Trebarwith Strand and Bossiney Cove, are easily accessible, and surfing is the main draw for water lovers. Tintagel has several pubs and restaurants, and the National Trust's Old Post Office is a must-see.
