This beautiful converted Cornish barn is suitable for a couple and their four-legged friend. Set within a 20-acre estate and with Cardinham Woods on your doorstep, this cosy cottage offers you and your canine companion a slice of rural paradise.

Step inside this warm and cosy accommodation to find charming interiors, vaulted ceilings, exposed stone brickwork and a crackling wood burner that is a joy at the end of any blustery day. Unpack your local produce in the open-plan kitchen/diner and begin making a romantic meal for two before sitting together at the table. The comfy seating in the living room beckons guests to curl up with their waggy-tailed pal and begin reading the newest bestseller or catching a blockbuster on the TV while snacking on buttery popcorn. Watch the sun fall below the treetops on balmy nights while your pup snoops out the enclosed garden. The pretty bedroom is a welcome sight and boasts delightful, exposed brick and calming tones for a restful night's sleep. Completing the home is the light and bright bathroom for freshening up after countryside adventures.

This property is not suitable for children or infants

Exploration abounds without leaving the estate, with Cardinham Woods' forest trails, cycle routes and stream-side views available from your doorstep and included in your stay. This is a fan favourite with any pup! For a change of scenery, head into the market town of Bodmin (3 miles), where you can venture around the high street shops before stopping off for titbits in the dog-friendly eateries. History buffs will be keen to see the Victorian heritage of Lanhydrock House (2 miles) or tour the rich and dark legacy of Bodmin Jail (2 miles).

A very lovely spacious cottage. Exceptional value for money, couldn't have asked for a better environment to just kick back and do our own thing. Welcome pack is amazing and catering for our dogs was brilliant.

Thank you for a very generous welcome hamper which we enjoyed. We also enjoyed the hot tub if a little breezy! There was masses of information in the cottage ranging from the owners stories to where to visit (St Neots Church was a good recommendation). Inevitably small being just for two but a good use of space made the cottage comfy and airy. Read moreWe appreciated the extras, thank you. Hide
