The bedroom is delightful with beams and a shepherd hut style double bed with plenty of storage room underneath.

I was born and raised in Cornwall as were most of my ancestors. Together with my husband who is also Cornish we run a sheep farm. We also have horses, pigs (who have become pets!..) and poultry. Richard (my husband) keeps bees. We both appreciate our natural surroundings living in a rural environment. We have good local knowledge and are happy to help. We live next door and will leave your key in a safe place on arrival. We will leave you in peace to enjoy your stay or can be contacted if you require any guidance or local advice. A travel cot and/or highchair is available on request. Please give prior notice if this is required.
