Pyworthy Cottage, North Tamerton is a characterful single-storey retreat nestled within the beautiful grounds of a former rectory, offering a peaceful escape in rural Cornwall. The open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining area creates a welcoming space where you can gather together, with comfortable seating arranged to capture views across the gardens and a wood burner-effect electric fire adding warmth on cooler evenings. The well-equipped kitchen features an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge / freezer and dishwasher, with a dining table providing the perfect spot for leisurely breakfasts and home-cooked suppers using local produce from nearby Holsworthy and Bude.
Step outside onto your private patio, complete with outdoor seating where you can enjoy morning coffee in the sunshine or evening drinks as the sun sets over the countryside. Two comfortable bedrooms provide restful accommodation: a king-size room and a flexible twin room, both positioned off the main living space. A family bathroom with shower over bath completes the practical layout. The cottage sits within extensive mature grounds shared with just three other properties, each maintaining complete privacy, while private parking for two cars ensures convenience throughout your stay.
Picture slow mornings with tea on the patio, birdsong drifting across the gardens as the Devon countryside awakens around you. Fill your days exploring dramatic coastal paths, discovering hidden coves along the Atlantic shoreline, or rambling across ancient moorland with your four-legged companion. As twilight settles, return to your peaceful retreat, perhaps lighting the fire and settling in for a cosy evening together, the rural tranquillity wrapping around you like a favourite blanket.
