Coastal Soul

Holiday Rental Description

Part of an old farmhouse that's been braving the Cornish weather for over seven hundred years. Sitting outside in the morning sun of the east-facing courtyard makes you appreciate the old rugged stone façade, especially compared to the sleek and cosy interior. You'll get a whole wing to yourself, complete with two dining spots outdoors and comfortable loungers in the garden. In the colder months, you'll be spending more time in the sitting room, surrounded by books and a large flat-screen TV with Technics cinema sound for an immersive experience. For a bit more peace and quiet, escape to the reading room which has even more books available, or relax in the pleasantly quiet bedroom. From here, the French doors open up to a cosy spot for two where you can admire the sunrise and plan your day. The nearest wild beach is well within walking distance, but the headline attraction is up the road in Bude. If you're up for some sightseeing, take the car down to Tintagel to see the ruins of King Arthur's mythical castle.

Home truths:
* The North Wing is part of a larger farmhouse, however, it is entirely separate, and you have plenty of privacy as well as your own spacious private courtyard
* The owners live on-site should you have any issues
* The zip-and-link bed in the master suite can be configured as either a king-size double bed or two singles
* You'll need a car to get around the area – public transport isn't frequent enough to rely on and there's free on-site parking
* Make sure you stock up on essentials before you arrive – the nearest shop is a few miles away
* The old goose house is perfect for storing bikes, surfboards and wetsuits
* You'll need to supply wood for the wood-burner
