  • Superb barn conversion with private decked patio and sunken hot tub
  • Fabulous, panoramic countryside views from its position close to the seaside town of Bude
  • Reverse-level accommodation to make the most of the picturesque surroundings
Property code: OC-86909

Surrounded by the stunning scenery of rural Cornwall, this beautifully presented barn-conversion is ideal for friends, families and their four-legged friends. Located within the village of Kilkhampton, close to the Devon-Cornwall border, you can enjoy peaceful countryside walks or strolls along nearby golden, sandy beaches. The local beaches are also popular with surfers, so be sure to pack your board. After a busy day exploring, visit the local pub for a hearty meal before heading home for a soak under the stars in your private hot tub.

Tastefully renovated, this spacious, reverse-level conversion offers guests contemporary living with far-reaching countryside views. On entering, you’ll find yourself on the ground floor where there’s a convenient hallway, utility area and two king-size bedrooms, both with en-suite shower rooms. Heading upstairs, there’s a light and airy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. The wooden floor, walls and ceilings create the feel of a lodge, whilst quirky angles and a vaulted ceiling frame the rural views. Outside, there’s a private decked patio with a sunken hot tub for two-legged guests to relax in, and a large lawn for four-legged guests to stretch their legs.

Despite occupying a peaceful location, you’re only 6 miles away from the bustling seaside town of Bude, located on North Devon and North Cornwall’s stunning heritage coastline. It’s a fantastic day out for the whole family with its beaches, sea pool, canal, clifftop walks, shops and eateries. From here, you can feel the wind in your fur by joining the South West Coast Path that connects unspoiled beaches such as Sandymouth (3.5 miles) and Welcombe Mouth (9 miles). You can also take a circular walk from Morwenstow (6.5 miles) to the smallest National Trust property, Hawker’s Hut, and soak up the far-reaching sea views.

Lovely cottage in a quiet location with great views. The Hot tub was a nice luxury after a hard day walking the coast path. There is a very nice dog friendly pub serving good food just a 5 min walk from the cottage. The owners were very friendly and helpful. Lovely welcome pack on arrival.
