Converted from the farm’s 18th-century cattle shed, Shippon Cottage has been beautifully turned into a cozy, dog-friendly one-bedroom retreat. It’s perfect for romantic getaways and special occasions. Inside, it is full of warmth and character. The original granite walls, vaulted beamed ceilings, and soft oak flooring add to its charm. The open-plan living space is relaxed and inviting. A large sofa and chaise surround a wood-burning stove, making it a great spot to unwind with a glass of wine after a day of exploring Cornwall. The country style kitchen and dining area is very well equipped and has everything you should need. The king-size bedroom features a luxuriously comfortable Hypnos bed, soft Egyptian cotton linen and blackout blinds. A cot can also be provided in the bedroom, making it a comfortable option for those traveling with a baby. The modern en-suite shower room is stocked with natural luxury toiletries, and fluffy towels along with bathrobes add an extra touch of comfort. Outside, double doors open onto your courtyard, a lovely sunny spot. There is also a shared garden with seating areas where you can take in the countryside views. A gate leads into the paddock for a peaceful evening stroll.

Ideally placed for discovering North Cornwall, with Padstow, Rock, Polzeath and Port Isaac all within easy reach, along with beautiful beaches, coastal walks, great pubs and fantastic places to eat.
