This spacious three-bedroom farmhouse, 9 miles from Bude, is set on 220 acres of farmland and boasts excellent facilities including a lake for fishing and a tennis court. It’s a great option for a small family plus one hound wanting tranquillity, a large, enclosed garden, and on-site farm activities.
Originally a 16th-century stable block, the property has been converted into a comfortable space. The open-plan living area is a pleasant mix of homely decor and traditional architecture with exposed beams, brickwork, and Cornish stonework throughout. After a day on the farm, cook up a feast in the kitchen or snuggle up on the sofa with your favourite programme on the TV. There’s plenty of space for Fido to roam or simply let him stretch out in front of the wood burner. When it’s time for bed, you’ll find a king-size bedroom (with an additional single bed) on this floor while upstairs you can choose between a king-size master bedroom and a twin. All the bedrooms are light and airy and pleasantly furnished. Outside the extensive, fenced garden is shared with four other properties. Children will love playing fetch with Fido or whiling away the hours in the sandpit or on the swings. There’s also a patio area and picnic table for al fresco meals.
This is a fantastic place for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Children will love meeting the on-site alpacas, riding the ponies, and feeding the lambs while keen anglers can spend the day by the lake. For walkies on the beach, head 5 miles to Crackington Haven (seasonal restrictions apply) or journey further afield and enjoy a coastal walk in dog-friendly Boscastle (8 miles).
