Skylark - sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms
This single-storey, barn was converted in 2024/25 with exceptional attention to detail and love into a two bedroom, two bathroom retreat; designed to make the spectacular views of the Camel Valley the star of the show. Turn off the main road and meander down a mile long track into a world of peace and tranquillity.
The open-plan living area provides a wonderful sense of space and light, with a double height ceiling, exposed beams and brickwork and characterful slate window sills and oak doors throughout. The bi-folding doors are the focal point of the space, and frame a mesmerising view of the breath-taking Camel Valley. There's plenty of room for enjoying cosy times in the sitting area; meals around the table; and a fabulous kitchen area for your very own Cornish creations.
A generous hallway with slate flooring and plenty of storage leads to the bedrooms, the first of which is a comfy king, with its own en-suite shower room. Bedroom two has the flexibility of zip-and-link-beds providing either twin single beds or a luxurious super-king size bed, with use of the family bathroom, making Skylark a perfect choice for friends and families alike.
Slide open the bi-folding doors to a pretty brick patio area, complete with rattan style comfy outdoor furniture and a charcoal barbecue. Don't forget your binoculars, the views are magical; as are the visiting skylarks, swallows and buzzards, who often circle overhead.
The charming market town of Wadebridge is just over 10 minutes drive away. Walk the Saints Way walking path or cycle The Camel Trail. The Camel Trail offers an abundance of trails running beside the picturesque estuary, head all the way to Padstow and enjoy lunch harbourside. The spectacular north and south coasts are both within easy reach, with the beaches of Rock, Polzeath and Trebarwith Strand to the north, and the harbours of Fowey, Mevagissey and Trelissick to the south. Or for enchanting woodland walks, explore the stunning Cardinham woods, it's all here.
