Lower Buttervilla Cottage

About this property

Formerly two farm cottages, Lower Buttervilla has been transformed into one beautiful and contemporary, detached holiday home. Lots of original features remain, including two fireplaces - one an inglenook revealing an ancient bread oven and the other fitted with a wood burning stove. The kitchen has a Rayburn for cooking as well as a combination microwave/oven/grill. Patio doors lead from the elegant lounge/diner to a large enclosed courtyard garden where guests can enjoy a BBQ, whilst a secluded decked patio at the rear of the cottage is ideal for relaxing in the sunshine. On the first floor, the three bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite bathroom, are bright and stylish. Lower Buttervilla is in the small Cornish village of Polbathic. Close to the Devon-Cornwall border, Polbathic is within the parish of St Germans which is home to Port Eliot, an impressive stately home which dates back to the 3rd century; both the house and beautiful gardens are open to the public. The village is conveniently located for easy exploration of both counties, both inland and around the spectacular coastline.

St Germans is on the River Tiddy, part of the Lynher estuary near Plymouth. The village has a Norman church. Port Eliot, a Grade I listed stately home with its garden, is open to the public and hosts a literary festival. There is a view of the Lynher estuary over which arches the huge Brunel viaduct. St Germans has a shop and a pub with a restaurant. Half an hour away are Looe and Polperro. Plymouth is also half an hour away across the Tamar Bridge and hass the National Marine Aquarium, Barbican quay area, theatres, Drake Circus shopping centre and walks along the Hoe. St Germans is an ideal destination with access to attractions.
