  • Pet friendly  barn conversion boasting a sheltered hot tub and large garden area
  • Located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and World Heritage status
  • Rural setting with easy access to Bodmin Moor, the Tamar Valley and Dartmoor National Park
Property code: 54343

A family retreat for a big group of humans and five dogs too, this one really is barking up the right tree! A haven for wildlife with walks on the doorstep, and short drives out to Bodmin, Dartmoor, or further afield north or south to explore beaches, scenic coves and small fishing villages. If you’re staying in, challenge someone to a table tennis tournament in the games room.

This spacious, contemporary barn conversion even has a shared, enclosed paddock to play fetch in shared only with the neighbouring property. A truly stunning restoration of a stone barn, this is the largest of two with reverse level open-plan living. The large modern kitchen diner is fabulous for cooking, drinking and making plans and memories. There is plenty of comfortable sofas and chairs to accommodate everyone in the lounge, perfect for relaxing after each day's adventure and letting sleeping dogs lie. With TVs, a grand selection of bedrooms, contemporary décor and countryside views you may want to stay awhile. Outside is a games room, a private furnished garden with swings and a BBQ, and did we mention the covered hot tub?

This place will set all tails wagging. If you can prise yourselves away, you are just 14 miles from beaches on north or south coastlines so days out could take you to Looe or Boscastle. Bodmin Moor or Tamar Valley, both within 10 miles, offer huge scope for muddy paws, stick chasing, cycling and big hikes. Just 2 miles away from the barn is a shop and pub, what more do you need?

Really good location to go and explore the surroundings- we would definitely recommend a walk around the moor near Minions- just gorgeous! Dogs loved the large enclosed field next to the house- never had any issues with sharing with the other family on the site. Cottage had most of what you would need- good selection of crockery/cooking bits. Beds Read morecomfortable, towels provided, only two bathrobes however. bring slippers/flip flops to get to the hot tub!! stairs slippery but stair gates- re dogs. Hide

Please look at the previous reviews, we didn't and so I was unaware that there is no private garden area to sit outside with your dogs unless the dogs are kept on a lead which is really difficult if you want to use the BBQ area. No dogs in bedrooms or on the sofas, again I was unaware. We did have a lovely break away it was just a shame that the HORead moreUSE RULES are not visible when booking as I think it would have put me off. The Hot tub was lovely but you will need to leave your dogs inside. Hide
