Located in Bodinnick by Fowey, Cornwall, this 16th-century former grain store has been sympathetically converted into a charming holiday cottage that sleeps up to four people. The cottage is situated in a quiet hamlet with a farm shop and a 13th-century inn nearby. Guests can visit Ferryside, the former home of author Daphne du Maurier, and take a ferry across to the town of Fowey with its restaurants, shops, and galleries.
