Shippen Barn - Court Farm

About this property

This lovingly furnished, reverse-level home-from-home is bursting with charm and character with a shared heated indoor swimming pool, games room, tennis court and small holding on-site; this is the ultimate family getaway to enjoy the natural beauty of the surrounding North Cornwall coastline.

After a long day exploring, you have two characterful and spacious bedrooms downstairs to retire to, which each feature a charming mix of soothing original features and cosy contemporary touches everywhere you look. If you’re not quite ready for bed, head upstairs to relax in the light and bright open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner; this endlessly social space invites you to unwind weary walking muscles on the comfy sofa whilst catching up with your favourite programme on the Smart TV, cook up a storm with your local produce and dine long into the evening seated around the rustic farmhouse-style dining table. Soak up your countryside surroundings by feeding the sheep and goats housed at the shared small holding before carrying on the day’s fun by enjoying the shared games room, tennis court, children’s outdoor play area and heated indoor swimming pool.

The sleepy rural village of Marhamchurch a stone’s throw from the Devon/Cornwall border is as picturesque as they come, boasting a landscape of traditional thatched cottages, tucked just 2.5 miles inland of the surfing mecca of Bude; it would be hard not to fall in love with Bude’s three sandy beaches, rugged cliffs, scenic walks and fabulous local shops and restaurants. Dive into the history and heritage of this incredible corner of the South West by exploring the fishing villages of Boscastle (13 miles) and Clovelly (18 miles) that have remained almost untouched by time. Stretching for nearly 2 miles, the golden sand and rock pools of the iconic Widemouth Bay can be reached within 3 miles.
