About this property

The Roundhouse is a superb 5* gold barn conversion with estuary views, lovely deck and garden, in the rural location of Higher Halwyn near Padstow.

A stunning stone barn conversion with a wonderful countryside and estuary view, situated in a rural area yet only a short drive from Padstow and several beaches.  The beautiful restoration of The Roundhouse used natural materials such as stone, wood and slate, and upstairs its open plan interior with high vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, modern woodburning stove and contemporary decor, gives it a delightful light and airy feel.  The kitchen and dining areas at first floor level, together with lounge, a few steps down, master bedroom, kitchen, balcony and the garden all have wonderful countryside views down the valley to the estuary, Rock and the sea beyond.  This peaceful retreat at Higher Halwyn is tucked right away from it all but a 10-15 minute drive will take you to Padstow, Wadebridge and several golden sandy beaches.  It is on the edge of a small hamlet of similar dwellings found along a quiet farm lane leading down to the Camel estuary and in the other direction to the village of St. Issey and two public houses.  The Camel Trail, just down the lane, follows the route of the old railway line between Padstow and Bodmin and is much loved by walkers and cyclists (bikes may be hired at Padstow or Wadebridge).  The path wends its way alongside the river bank through this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with its abundant wildlife and if you are lucky you may catch a glimpse of an otter or a porpoise.

  • Mrs Rachel Lewis

    Really enjoyed our stay at The Roundhouse - huge amounts of outdoor space for the kids to run around in. Stunning view and probably the best equipped kitchen of any holiday rental that we have stayed in.

  • Mr Richard Lester

    There is a great view of the Camel Estuary from the property.

  • Miss Tracey Singlehurst-Ward

    This is a fantastic property, well equipped and situated perfectly for long walks and cycle rides. It is on a site with several holiday cottages, but feels completely private and secluded. We enjoyed walking to Padstow often (about 40 minutes) and cycling the trail. We would definitely return!
