Property code: OC-86675

Retreat with your loved one and a pair of much-cherished canines to this delightful hideaway near Polyphant. Set in the scenic Cornish countryside, 5 miles from Launceston, this inviting apartment is in a great location for riverside walking and fishing trips, as well as forays out to the coast and into Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor. The one-bedroom, ground-floor holiday home sleeps two guests, as well as their canine companions. Make your way back to the quiet holiday home to enjoy the fresh air and verdant views from the shared terrace after your lively day out and about together.

Open the front door to the apartment and usher your waggy tailed friends inside. Find yourselves in an airy, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner/bedroom. Discover space in here to relax in front of the Smart TV, read your books for a while or simply spend quality time with your delighted dogs. Prepare meals for everyone in the well-equipped kitchen then dine at the table with your significant other. Pull down the double bed when it’s time to turn in for the night. Have a refreshing shower in the morning then consider having breakfast out in the fresh air, while your cheerful chums try to contain their excitement at yet another wonderful walk. There is parking for two cars at the property.

Venture 14 miles up to the coast at Boscastle. Let your happy hounds splash in the salty water of the shallows then pick up the South West Coast Path for a stretch. Walk 4 miles along the clifftops to dog-friendly Tintagel, where your pups can carefully explore the castle, beach and Merlin’s Cave with you. Alternatively, follow the path for 3 miles in the other direction, until you reach Buckator Beach. Keep an eye out for seals bobbing about in the water as you go.

This property was perfect for my quiet retreat with my dog. I felt so happy and relaxed that I extended my stay. I personally can't fault anything and would be very happy to return as the location is perfect for reaching parts of the coast and other inland areas.

We could not fault this property, it was absolutely perfect for what we wanted and our dog loved it. It was lovely being so private and quiet. It was also lovely to have lots of space outside for Dougie to explore freely. We will definitely be going back. The owners were very welcoming and friendly. It was a lovely few days in every way

Lovely spotless apartment. Great location for visiting nearby tourist attractions. The lazy boy chairs not a comfortable as a sofa would have been. Would have struggled with more than 4 nights plus noise from accommodation upstairs dictated a few sleepless nights, however we might have just been unlucky with guests who seemed to stay up all nighRead moret and sleep until mid-afternoon. Good stretch of river for fly fishing for some elusive wild brown trout. Owners friendly and not overly intrusive.

RESPONSE FROM HOLIDAY COTTAGES: Sorry to hear that you were disturbed with the noise from upstairs, you were certainly unlucky as it is usually so peaceful. Your feedback has been passed on to the owner, who has noted your comments on the chairs.
