Buttercup at The Camel Trail, Tredethy welcomes you into a beautifully contemporary open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining space designed for gathering together after a day of adventure. Enjoy home-cooked meals whipped up in the fully equipped kitchen, complete with induction hob, integrated oven and dishwasher, before settling around the dining table to share stories from your day. The adjoining lounge invites you to relax on plush sofas beneath a wall-mounted Smart TV, whilst large windows frame views across the wildflower meadow towards the gently flowing River Camel.
Step outside onto the spacious decked veranda, an idyllic spot to enjoy a leisurely coffee whilst watching wildlife graze across the shared meadow, or to host an alfresco supper as the River Camel murmurs nearby. Downstairs, a comfortable double bedroom sits alongside a family bathroom with shower over bath, whilst upstairs you'll find a king-size bedroom with its own balcony overlooking the meadow and en-suite, plus a twin room also with en-suite facilities. Private off-road parking for two cars completes this wonderfully self-contained holiday retreat.
Picture mornings spent watching mist rise gently over the meadow, a steaming mug in hand as birdsong drifts from the riverbank below. Days unfold at your own pace: cycle or stroll the famous Camel Trail straight from your doorstep, cast a line into the River Camel, or simply unwind on the decking as the water rushes past. As dusk settles, gather around the dining table, sharing tales of trails discovered and beaches explored, cocooned within this tranquil Cornish valley.
