About this property

… 2 miles from Pelynt, tucked down hedgerow lanes and a long private drive, two pretty, detached stone cottages on the side of a deep valley (panoramic views) full of wildlife and flowers, 3½ miles from Looe. Steep, grassy slope and steps to woods and river. Only birds and bees disturb the peace. Good river valley and woodland walks from the cottages. Family donkeys and dogs are extremely friendly and happy to accompany you over owners’ 54 acres (sheep, lambs in spring) which encompass St Nun’s holy well; its waters are reputed to cure insanity and all visitors are supposed to leave a gift of a ‘pin’, in this context a pin of ale for the farmer! You are welcome to collect eggs (when available) and groom the donkeys. Spring water. A wonderfully tranquil escape, free from traffic noise and light pollution (star-gazing). Good walk to pub at Duloe.

Hobb Cottage: to the front, a low granite wall topped with quartz encircles a pretty flower-filled suntrap garden (table/chairs). Entrance to hall; living/dining room with attractive high beamed ceiling, TV/DVD, open fire (logs and coal included) and lovely valley views; neat fitted kitchen (slimline dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, fridge-freezer); loo; stairs down to double bedroom and shower-room (suite). No children. A great place to unwind.
