Moving through the property, locate the bright and airy sitting room, traditionally-decorated with an exposed brick wall which homes a rustic woodburning stove to gently heat up the room; take a seat on one of three sofas and unwind for the evening in front of the TV. The younger ones can be kept stimulated in the games room, which offers an additional TV and Xbox for a fun night in. Relish the countryside setting in the large garden, savour a moment of relaxation on the outdoor seating as you soak in the far-reaching views. As the evening grows dark, head back inside to find the ground-floor bathroom to indulge in a bubble bath; there is a double bedroom adjacent, ideal for those with limited mobility. There are four more excellent bedrooms to choose from, take one flight of stairs to discover another double bed with an en-suite WC, as well as an adult bunk bedroom, both offering great storage space.

In the morning, enjoy a steaming cup of coffee from the Nespresso machine in the garden and plan the exciting day ahead. Take a scenic drive to the historic village of Kilkhampton where you'll find a range of local amenities; treat your loved ones to a stop at one of the friendly pubs serving home-cooked meals, or visit the village shops to stock up on tasty treats for a night in. A short drive will bring you to the seaside resort of Bude, home to Bude Sea Pool, where you can swim in crystal clear waters, or for an insight into the history of the town, tour the 19th century castle before indulge in a spot of Cornish cream tea at the quaint on-site cafe.
