Fox Barn Lakes

A light and airy cottage, perfectly positioned within the countryside and surrounded by seven acres and fishing lake making this a fantastic retreat for couples and families alike.

Sleeping four guests, this rural hideaway is made for families with the delights of North Cornwall on your doorstep, plus a shop, pub, and restaurant within 2 miles. It’s part of a complex of three holiday properties set in gorgeous Cornish countryside with a carp lake and riverbank setting. Enjoy rugged rambles with your hounds in Dartmoor National Park (12 miles) and discover picturesque villages, and lofty hikes toward towering tors. Shop in Launceston (3 miles), the ancient capital of Cornwall with a 13th-century castle keep.

Step inside this welcoming holiday home where you’re greeted by contemporary style interiors and a sunny open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area. Source delicious ingredients from the farm shop in Lifton (2.5 miles) and cook up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen before gathering around the dining area to catch up on the day. Kick back in the cosy living room and watch TV; have fun in the games room, or head out to the enclosed terrace where hounds can curl up and enjoy the garden views while you create BBQ feasts to enjoy alfresco.

Tee off on the fairways of Launceston Golf Club (2.5 miles). Source delicious treats and explore the pannier market and eateries in Tavistock (13 miles), the birthplace of Sir Francis Drake. Discover Tudor heritage at Cotehele House (17 miles), wander garden trails and spot wildlife at the National Trust Buckland Abbey (19.5 miles), or meander towards rainbows over Lydford Gorge waterfall (12.5 miles). Or pack a picnic and head for Widemouth Bay (17 miles), a great place for new surfers where you can catch the Atlantic waves and explore the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
