Property Details

Situated on the banks of the River Lynher, this pretty south facing detached and secluded cottage, built of local stone and slate, is set in 3 acres of tranquil pasture and woodland yet is only a 40 minute drive to both the beautiful north and south coasts. Sympathetically restored whilst retaining much of its original character and charm, the cottage has lovely river views from every room and offers a 180 yard private beat for salmon and trout fishing (licence required). Situated in a peaceful valley, the property is approached down a long narrow rough unmade track that leads to a gravelled parking area at the bottom and a sloping grassy path through the garden to the front door.

This opens to a small entrance hallway with coats area and an adjacent bathroom W.C. with wash basin and bath with hand held shower fitment. Four steps lead down from the hallway to a country kitchen/dining room with a beamed ceiling, electric rangemaster cooker, Belfast sink and a rustic dining table with chairs. The kitchen and bathroom benefit from underfloor heating. Adjacent to the dining area, a door leads through to a charming beamed sitting room with comfortable seating arranged before the fireplace and windows overlooking the garden and riverbank.

A carpeted staircase leads up to the first floor landing where there are three cottage style bedrooms with white washed stone walls and views of the river; a master double, a twin bedded room and the third with a single bed. A grassy garden and gate leads to a field which slopes gently down to the edge of the river and provides a peaceful haven for nature lovers and a delight for older children, however young children and pets must be supervised at all times.

A 15 minute walk through woodland can reach the Manor House Inn, just over a mile away in Rilla Mill, and the nearest village store/P.O. is in Upton Cross 2.5 miles away where fishing licences can be obtained. Liskeard, 15 minutes drive, has a range of local shops, supermarket, and a leisure centre and Launceston with its ancient castle is 20 minutes. This is a wonderful base for walkers and wildlife enthusiasts to explore the beauty of Bodmin Moor nearby, and Siblyback Lake, 7 miles, offers trout fly fishing and a watersports centre. There are also riding stables and a variety of golf courses within easy reach. Cornwall holiday cottage footer
