About this property
Located on the track to St Nectan’s Glen and Waterfall, between the villages of Boscastle and Tintagel, this beautifully refurbished Victorian villa offers families and friends tranquillity in the heart of North Cornwall. This scenic part of the coast is a walker's paradise; from the doorstep, head up the lane to St Nectan's Glen (0.5 miles), journeying through the woodland along the River Trevillet to the waterfalls. Discover Rocky Valley and Tintagel (both within 1.5 miles) in one direction, a historic village steeped in Arthurian legend with its iconic castle and famous Merlin's Cave. In the opposite direction, you’ll find the picturesque village of Boscastle (2.5 miles), with its tiny harbour, shops and galleries, and generous selection of cafes and restaurants. The sandy beaches of Bossiney Cove, Trebarwith, and Crackington Haven can all be reached within 8.5 miles.
The handsome entrance hallway creates a sophisticated atmosphere with its grand staircase and beautiful tiled floor, leading to the spacious kitchen/diner at the heart of this home-away-from-home. Flooded with plenty of natural sunlight and offering green views alongside contemporary-meets-country decor, this homely social hub will capture your imagination. Quaint and cosy to the core, featuring soothing pastel shades and a roaring wood burner, the elegant lounge sets the scene for relaxation. During the warmer months, open the French doors to the patio to let the fresh Cornish air flow through; indoor/outdoor living is made easy. Upstairs, there are four restful bedrooms, each boasting the same peaceful ambience as the ground floor and offering lovely views to wake up to. Choose from a master king-size with an en-suite shower room, another king-size room, a double, and a cosy twin bedroom. Serving the bedrooms and completing the home is a well-appointed family bathroom.
Outside, enjoy your peaceful surroundings from the comfort of the extensive garden, which features a sweeping lawn and pretty patio – the perfect spot to enjoy some al fresco dining. Set on a slope, there's also a raised sun terrace offering glimpses out to sea. The lower garden, brimming with mature shrubs, boasts charming paths winding through the planting. Guests will also find the utility room outside, as well as private parking for six cars.
