Over The Hill

This barn conversion enjoys a tranquil rural location in a hillside location. The fishing village of Polperro is just a mile away and can be reached by a country walk over the owner’s land and down a lane. Here, visitors will find a tidal sea pool, quirky independent shops, a choice of eateries and a small beach. A bigger beach can be found in the nearby harbour town of Looe, a gently sloping stretch of sand with good bathing conditions. From Looe, visitors may like to take a boat out to the nearby Looe Island, a marine nature reserve with a resident seal colony.

This stylish accommodation makes a great place for a couple’s break, or perhaps for a small family using the available extra futon bed. The spacious open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is located on the first floor of the property and offers a light and airy space with exposed beams, TV, DVD, and wood burner, for which the logs are provided. The contemporary kitchen area is well-equipped with an electric oven and hob, dishwasher, fridge with ice compartment and microwave. Downstairs, the bedroom with king-size bed has its own TV and space for an additional futon bed, suitable for a child. The property’s bathroom has a roll-top bath, separate shower cubicle and WC and the washer/dryer is located under the stairs.

Outside, there is a shared lawn area with outdoor seating for alfresco dining and guests are welcome to explore the grounds where they will find a play area with swings and a seesaw, as well as a games area with nets for tennis, badminton and football. Guests are also free to enjoy the wildlife pond and meet the chickens, ducks and fish.
