Residing in the picturesque town of Launceston, Cornwall, this charming Olde Worlde cottage offers a unique retreat for two guests. With one double bedroom, the cottage is designed to provide a cozy and intimate atmosphere, featuring an original farmhouse kitchen fireplace with remnants of a clome oven set within a large inglenook recess. The warmth of the wood burner on the slate hearth creates a welcoming ambiance, particularly during the cooler months. The living area, adorned with exposed beams and a dominant stone chimney, enhances the rustic character of the space, while a short, steep staircase leads to the bedroom, where sloping beamed ceilings and a window view of the budding orchard await guests.

This secluded rural hideaway is situated within a private estate encompassing 45 acres, providing ample opportunities for outdoor exploration.

Each session lasts for one hour and can accommodate up to four people, allowing guests to unwind under the stars.
