Get your nearest and dearest together at this beautifully converted barn conversion in a pretty complex of properties just outside the charming town of Launceston. Sleeping four people across two inviting bedrooms, this cottage is the perfect accommodation choice for small families or groups of friends looking for a relaxing retreat to call home while they discover the best of Devon and Cornwall together. Spend happy days exploring the lively shops and cafes in historic Launceston, and in the evening, come home to host a BBQ feast on the cottage’s pretty, private patio area.

From your private parking spot (there’s room for two cars) head to this beautiful barn, which makes the most of its upside-down layout. Step inside and you’ll be welcomed by a stylish hallway that leads to two well-designed bedrooms and a chic family bathroom. Make your way upstairs and you’ll find a rustic open-plan living area that has been carefully designed to embrace its sunlit, south-facing views. Take a moment to admire the characterful exposed beams and tasteful decor in the lounge area before you head to the contemporary-style kitchen to cook up a feast. Share a fun dinner together with your loved ones at the wooden dining table. Alternatively, head out onto the private patio area, fire up a BBQ and dine alfresco. After dinner, sip a glass of wine while you watch the stars come out, or head back to the lounge to relax in front of the TV. At the end of the day, two stylish double bedrooms await downstairs – one features a custom-made king-size oak bed. Completing the layout is a modern family bathroom with a contemporary rain shower.

Come face to face with wildlife at the wonderful Tamar Otter and Wildlife Centre (3 miles). Watch playful otters in their natural habitat, marvel at a variety of birds of prey and meet deer and wallabies. Alternatively, head to Hidden Valley Discovery Park (7.5 miles) to navigate mazes and try out interactive exhibits that combine fun and learning.
