Within two miles of the
surfing beach at Trebarwith Strand on the spectacular north Cornish coast, this former
Victorian bake house is tucked away in the village of
Delabole, set back from the main road.
The front door opens to a
utility room with
laundry facilities and an inner door leads to a
pleasant living room with the
original slate flagstones on the floor, comfortable seating facing the
wood burning stove and a
dining suite. In one corner of the room, a door leads to a small, partly fitted
kitchen with a
belfast sink,
double oven and a
rustic breakfast table with chairs.
From the living room, a door leads into the central hallway and on the opposite side is a further
reception room with lounge furniture arranged before the
open fire and rugs on the
wooden floorboards. There is also a
sun room with a conservatory style suite enjoying
views of the adjacent fields and the moors beyond.
A wooden staircase leads up from the hallway to the first floor landing where there are a
large bathroom W.C. with hand basin,
shower cubicle and
roll top bath, and
three simply furnished bedrooms. There is a
single bedroom, one with a
5ft double bed, and a
twin bedded room with the option of
zip linked beds. The latter two have
lovely views of the countryside with the moors in the distance.
Accessed from the sun room is a
terrace with patio furniture, and slightly set apart from the house is a tiny fenced and gated,
private garden with a small lawn. There is
off road parking for two cars.
Delabole has a village store, P.O., bakery and pub all within a couple of minutes walk, and there are also playing fields and a
coarse fishery very close by.
The nearest beach can be reached within a 30 minute walk, and the town of
Camelford, 3 miles, has a sports centre with swimming pool, golf club and a selection of shops and pubs. The historic village of
Tintagel, long associated with King Arthur is about 5 miles, and the
picturesque harbours at Boscastle and Port Isaac are 6 miles respectively.
