West Cottage, Trescowe welcomes you into a beautifully renovated Cornish retreat where exposed beams and flagstone floors set the scene in the open-plan kitchen and dining area. The well-equipped kitchen features an electric oven and hob, integrated fridge-freezer, dishwasher, and coffee machine, with a dining table gathering everyone together for leisurely meals. A separate utility room houses the washing machine and microwave, whilst a ground-floor WC adds convenience. The cosy lounge beckons with its exposed stonework and feature fireplace, where comfortable sofas invite you to relax beside the crackling wood burner, enjoying a good book or your favourite programme on the Smart TV.
Heading outside, the enclosed south-facing garden becomes your private sanctuary, where mature shrub borders frame a level lawn perfect for children's games, whilst the terrace offers outdoor seating, a charcoal barbecue, and a fire pit area for golden summer evenings. Climb the characterful spiral staircase to discover three restful bedrooms beneath original beams and vaulted ceilings: a king-size room, a double room, and a flexible twin room, all styled with calming interiors for peaceful nights. A contemporary family shower room with WC completes the first floor.
Picture mornings with coffee beside the stable door, birdsong drifting across the peaceful hamlet. Spend sun-drenched days exploring golden Praa Sands just down the road, returning to fire up the barbecue whilst children play safely in the garden. As dusk settles, gather around the fire pit beneath starlit Cornish skies, or retreat indoors where the wood burner's warmth and gentle crackle create the perfect ending to another memorable day.
