The Linney at Penrose Burden, St Breward is a romantic ground-floor retreat tucked within a secluded group of converted barns, offering couples a peaceful escape amid rolling Cornish countryside. The open-plan lounge, diner and kitchen is the heart of the home, with sweeping views stretching across the fields beyond. Settle into comfortable seating in front of the crackling wood burner, stream a favourite film on the Smart TV and DVD player, or fill the room with music from the Bluetooth speaker. A handy tide clock sits nearby, ready to help you plan your next trip to the coast, while French doors invite the outdoors in on sunnier days.
Step outside through the French doors onto the private patio, where a table, chairs and BBQ set the scene for alfresco dining beneath wide Cornish skies; a second patio at the rear offers another peaceful spot to soak up the surrounding views. The king-size bedroom is dressed with a supportive Hypnos mattress for restful nights, complemented by a Smart TV and clock radio dock for charging devices. The charming en-suite bathroom features a rain shower over a period-style rolltop bath with feet, finished with locally made organic toiletries. Private parking for two cars sits just outside, with bike storage also available for cyclists exploring the nearby Camel Trail.
Imagine mornings spent with coffee on the patio, mist lifting slowly over Bodmin Moor's distant peaks, and evenings curled beside the wood burner as owls call across the fields. By day, lace up your boots for wonderful walks straight from the door, cycle the Camel Trail towards Padstow, or venture to the coast for fresh sea air and locally caught seafood. Back at The Linney, the countryside hush and gentle comforts make for a truly restorative escape.
