This pretty property has been lovingly furnished to provide a comfortable couples' retreat, and is ideally located on the spectacular Lizard Peninsula with a picturesque beach just a mile away.

Surrounded by a 23-acre estate, this delightful barn conversion offers a peaceful retreat for romantic getaways for two. Discover the many quaint fishing villages, coves and beaches that this tranquil part of South Cornwall has to offer before returning to base for a relaxing swim in the shared outdoor pool.

Inside, the accommodation offers a tasteful blend of old and new, as a modern kitchen and open-plan lounge/diner combine with exposed ceiling beams and oak floorboards. Wake in the cosy double bedroom before heading outside for a reviving morning swim in the shared pool. After a day of exploring, dine alfresco in the charming shared courtyard or pack a picnic and stroll past fields of sheep, horses and chickens to find a peaceful spot to eat.

Located on the spectacular Lizard Peninsula, this area is steeped in maritime and smuggling history with plenty of stories to tell. Head towards the coast to visit the popular Mullion (4 miles) and Poldhu (2 miles) coves before stopping for an ice cream in the quaint fishing village of Porthleven. Ditch the car for a day and follow the breathtaking South West Coast Path or enjoy a day out at the popular attractions of The Eden Project (40 miles), Tate Gallery St Ives (20 miles) or Flambards Theme Park (5 miles).
