Set within the sweeping grounds of the St Mellion Estate, this single-level stone retreat is surrounded by 450 acres of countryside, giving families or friends and their canine companion ample scope for morning wanders and last walks of the day. With a spa and health club on site, places to eat and a renowned 18-hole golf course close at hand, days can be as active or as gentle as you choose.
Enter the cottage via the hallway. Beyond, the open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining area immediately draws you in, with timber-clad ceilings adding warmth and character. The dining table sits at the heart of the room, ideal for shared suppers and plotting tomorrow’s routes. The kitchen has everything needed for holiday catering, whether that’s a hearty breakfast before a long walk or a packed lunch for exploring with your four-pawed pal. In the lounge area, settle into comfortable seating and switch on the Smart TV, or let the daylight pour in through the patio doors that open onto the terrace. Three inviting bedrooms await. The first is a super-king-size zip-and-link room (which can be arranged as twins if requested), complete with a dressing table and patio doors leading outside. Close by is a gleaming shower room. The second bedroom also has a super-king-size zip-and-link bed (twin option available), an en-suite shower room and its own patio access. The final bedroom boasts a super-king-size zip-and-link bed, a small seating area with Smart TV, patio doors and an en-suite bathroom. Outside, a terrace with garden furniture provides a lovely spot to sit while your hound rests. Beyond this, the estate’s extensive shared grounds invite leisurely strolls, and guests are welcome to make use of the on-site health club. Private off-road parking is available for two cars.
Bordering the Tamar Valley National Landscape with Dartmoor beyond, the area is a treat for walkers and their inquisitive pups. Riverside paths along the River Tamar are close by, while National Trust Cotehele Mill (3.5 miles) has historic gardens and scenic trails to uncover. For coastal days, Whitsand Bay (15 miles) is dog-friendly all year, and Plymouth (12 miles) provides waterfront walks, shopping and pet-positive places to eat.
