Bask in countryside tranquillity while Cornwall's captivating coastline beckons at your doorstep

The Orangerie, Gilbert's Coombe is a romantic countryside cottage offering an enchanting retreat for couples seeking tranquillity. The fully-equipped kitchen sits up five steps from the main living area and provides everything needed to prepare delightful culinary creations, from quick snacks to gourmet meals, complete with a convenient breakfast bar for casual dining. The welcoming lounge/diner invites you to sink into comfortable sofas before the crackling wood burner while enjoying the Smart TV, or share intimate meals at the dining table positioned perfectly for conversation and connection.

Step outside to discover multiple outdoor sanctuaries, including a private walled garden ideal for al fresco dining with the provided BBQ, and bistro seating at the front overlooking mature landscaped gardens. The tastefully furnished king-size bedroom exudes a homely feel, complemented by a beautifully contemporary en-suite shower room with a luxurious drench shower. With dual-aspect rooms allowing natural light to flood in throughout, this charming bolthole feels bright and airy while maintaining its cosy character.

Imagine waking to gentle sunshine streaming through the windows, enjoying a leisurely breakfast in your private walled garden as birds provide a natural soundtrack. Spend your days exploring coastal paths and seaside villages before returning to light the wood burner, pour a glass of local wine, and sink into the sofa, planning tomorrow's adventures as shadows lengthen across your countryside hideaway.

The Orangerie, Gilbert's Coombe is perfectly positioned to explore Cornwall's captivating coastline and countryside. Nestled a short distance from the small seaside resort of Portreath, you'll enjoy easy access to sandy beaches, a narrow harbour, and amenities including pubs, shops and cafés.
