The Granary

About this property

Launceston 2.7 miles. Set in the quiet rural village of South Perthewin, just over the border into the picturesque county of Cornwall, is this delightful barn conversion, The Granary. Perfectly positioned for exploring the best of both Devon and Cornwall, and only a short drive from the North Coast and moors, The Granary is an idyllic getaway for families and friends alike. Stone-built with high ceilings, exposed beams and an effortlessly stylish interior décor, this lovely barn has been designed with comfort in mind. With a reverse-level layout, enter the property on the ground floor into a spacious entryway and head upstairs to be greeted by an impressive open-plan living/dining room, with a feature woodburner and a rustic vaulted ceiling, open to the rafters. There's room on the comfy corner sofa for the whole family to relax and enjoy a movie in front of the Smart TV whilst the dining table offers a lovely sense of formality, perfect for that special get together or simply recounting your days adventures over a delicious supper. Located at the rear and with glass doors to the garden, is a well-equipped country kitchen, where you can prepare a hearty breakfast before heading out for the day. On the ground floor you can retire to one of three beautifully furnished and peaceful bedrooms; choose from two spacious king-size rooms, both with en-suites or a neat twin, while the fourth bedroom - a king-size - can be found on the first floor. Every bit as impressive is the immaculate garden; a sunny escape with large patio area, table and chairs and a fabulous hot tub, it is perfect for relaxing and toasting a glass of fizz to a fantastic holiday. On summer evenings, head off and explore the beautiful surrounding countryside and local area on foot; South Petherwin is home to a handsome church, a traditional pub serving up local delicacies and some lovely wooded walks around the River Inny. Located a short distance away from the ancient town of Launceston, you are within easy reach of an exciting selection of independent shops, artisan bakeries and the town’s 13th century castle. A short drive will take you to Rough Tor and Bodmin, a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, boasting a wealth of natural beauty and an enjoyable climb to a rocky summit. Alternatively, you can head further afield to reach the popular coastal locations of Boscastle, Bude, Crackington Haven, Tintagel and Widemouth Bay within 20 minutes. Offering stylish accommodation in a superb location, The Granary is the perfect base for a holiday in Cornwall.

The town of Launceston, situated on the Devon and Cornwall border, has fine Georgian buildings in the central square, and is dominated by the ruins of a Norman castle sitting high above the town. Launceston is within driving distance of the seaside resorts of Bude and Padstow to the north, and Plymouth to the south, as well as Bodmin Moor and Dartmoor. A superb base for exploring Cornwall and Devon.
