Nestled in a tiny coastal hamlet near the famed village of Boscastle, this property benefits from coastal and country views and a location that perfectly balances peace and quiet with accessibility to some of the most stunning coastal scenery in the UK.

The farmhouse itself is a fine example of traditional Cornish architecture, double fronted with stone walls and a slate roof (which was replaced some 30 years ago) that exudes timeless charm.

The heart of the home is the sociable farmhouse style kitchen/breakfast room, ideal for both family meals and entertaining guests where the electric Rangemaster with induction hob is available via separate negotiation.

The whole enjoys a plenty of peace and quiet but has the security of a couple of neighbouring homes.
