  • Hilltop barn conversion set within ten acres of countryside with far reaching views
  • Enjoy scenic walks through the surrounding fields and woodland straight from the door
  • Extremely dog-friendly property with enclosed garden and large paddock for exercising
Property code: TFRIZ

This is the perfect place for two humans and up to four four-legged companions to take a breather from reality. The idyllic barn conversion is in a private rural location, where you can wake up to far-reaching views of the countryside. It’s also close to the North Devon border so you can dip into discovering the attractions of the neighbouring county too.

Wrap your hands around a morning cup of tea and soak up the serenity of the countryside from the decked balcony; this is also a perfect spot to catch a sunset. This single-story home is a cosy haven where evenings consist of cooking in the immaculate kitchen and relaxing by the fire while choosing from Netflix’s library of TV shows and films. The garden is fully enclosed so as you sit on the decking admiring a sky free from light pollution, your dog can roam, roll and play outside.

Cornwall is full of award-winning dog-friendly eateries and walks so spectacular you’ll remember them forever. This cottage is set between the rugged Dartmoor (17 miles) and the mythical Bodmin Moor (4 miles), and if you travel 20 miles north, you’ll arrive at the coast where you and your pup can chase waves and dig in the sand. Dogs on leads are welcome to climb up to the battlements of Launceston Castle (7.5 miles) for impressive views of the town.

We needed a quiet break with no hassle and somewhere easy to run and our 3 dogs. We loved the property and our hosts could not have done more to help us enjoy our stay. We had one particularly bad weather day and just lit the fire, binge watched Netflix and drank the very welcome bottle of wine left for us by our hosts!
