Walks are abundant, be it across the moors or along the Tinner's Way to the coastal path, and your pooch can come too. Set within an enclosed private garden with a bench, gas barbecue and table and chairs, in the grounds of the owners' home, Smithy's Stable is perfect for two. The open plan living area is warmed by a roaring wood-burner and boasts an en suite bedroom, which is home to a double bed and separated from the living space by open paneling. Smithy's Stable has been decorated with style and flair. Exposed granite walls, slate and solid oak floors and a small but well-equipped kitchen area, with a two ring gas hob and mini oven, complete the cozy charm and character of this converted stable. The quintessential romantic retreat for your Cornish holiday.
