Escape to rural Cornwall and enjoy the welcome of this charming shepherd's hut, the perfect base for walkers, surfers and nature lovers. Surrounded by rolling farmland and boasting spectacular views, the peaceful retreat is an ideal destination for couples or solo travellers.
Traditional in style, the shepherd’s hut has a barrel-shaped roof and four steps up to the entrance. French doors open to a thoughtfully arranged, open-plan interior, which includes a double bed tucked away at one end, raised above two storage drawers and with idyllic views through two windows. The living space includes a compact kitchen with a two-ring gas hob, a combination microwave and a fridge, perfect for preparing simple meals and snacks, and a breakfast bar with a pair of stools. For relaxing indoors, there’s bench seating and a cosy armchair, plus a TV. A shower room with WC adds everyday comfort. The private seating area at the front of the hut is designed for making the most of the tranquil country views, and features garden furniture, a fire pit and lighting that creates a magical atmosphere after dark. Look out for the friendly farm animals in the neighbouring field, which is part of a working farm. Adding to the convenience of this beautiful holiday property, gated, off-road parking is available on the site for two cars.
A central location within Cornwall offers all kinds of options for discovering different aspects of the county.

The shops, pubs and cafes of Launceston are just 5 miles away, mythical Tintagel Castle is 22 miles, and the beaches of Bude are 24 miles away.
