About this property
Kingbarth is a wonderfully private, detached cottage with 19th century origins over two levels, in an area of great beauty just a ten minute walk from Lerryn. This lovely house is just perfect for a family or a romantic couple. It is decorated in an uncluttered style, fresh and simple with thick rugs over original slate floors downstairs. Step from the garden into the farmhouse style dining room, through to a large kitchen which has lovely meadow views, and then on in to the spacious living room with a wood-burning stove and door to the pretty garden. There's a children's snug with a box of games and toys and at the back of the cottage, a utility area and a little shower-room. Head up the stairs to three bedrooms, two king-size doubles and a twin with beautiful meadow views, and there is a family bathroom. A big rambling garden with garden furniture, patio and BBQ encloses it, full of flowering shrubs and birdsong: brilliant freedom for older children to explore, yet enclosed at the front for younger ones. No close neighbours, just undulating meadows surround. A wonderful restorative get-away. For those who want to explore, nearby Lostwithiel has shops, pub, restaurants and Restormel castle. Or perhaps take the ferry to the picturesque fishing village of Fowey.
For those seeking peace, tranquillity and the unspoilt splendour of Cornwall's softer' southern coast there can be few finer spots than Lerryn. Sitting at the very point where the River Lerryn joins the highest tidal reach of a creek leading up from the Fowey estuary, the village has a timeless, natural beauty no matter the season.

We had great times regardless of the poor weather, thanks to the spaciousness of the living areas, the selection of indoor games available and the comfort of the accommodation.

It was well equipped, spacious and spotlessly clean.The one negative for us was that the lane leading to the cottage is extremely narrow and our car (a Fiesta) sometimes bottomed out on leaving the drive. We would recommend approaching the lane from the top end, turning at Wooda Farm and doubling back.
