St Meubreds Cottage, Cardinham welcomes you into a light, bright modern kitchen and sitting room, thoughtfully equipped with an electric oven, induction hob, dishwasher and coffee machine for effortless self-catering. Perch at the breakfast bar with a morning coffee, windows flung wide to soak up rolling countryside views, or gather for a hearty meal before a day of Cornish exploring. Step through to a cosy adjoining sitting room, where a wood burner crackles invitingly and a plump sofa beckons for evenings spent watching the Smart TV.
Step outside and opposite the cottage, there's a private sunny patio garden awaits, complete with table and chairs for alfresco dining and a barbecue for warm summer evenings beneath the stars. Upstairs, the luxurious bedroom boasts a king-size zip and link bed (which can be made into twins on request), a further Smart TV, and dual-aspect windows framing tranquil countryside views on both sides. The light, bright en-suite shower room is accessed directly from the bedroom. Private parking for one car sits conveniently close to the cottage's front door.
Picture lazy mornings propped up in bed, countryside views stretching beyond the window as birdsong drifts in on the breeze. Spend your days discovering Cornwall's golden beaches, ancient castles and lush gardens, then return as dusk falls to fire up the barbecue, a glass of something cold in hand while the stars emerge overhead. Later, curl up beside the crackling wood burner, the day's adventures replaying as sleep beckons.
