Located in Millbrook, Cornwall in the South West of England, this cosy lakeside cottage with three bedrooms sleeps up to five guests. The property features a hot tub, open fire, and is pet friendly. Nestled in the Rame Peninsula, the house is just a few meters away from a beautiful lake that connects to the Tamar Estuary. Within walking distance, guests can find local amenities such as a pub, cafes, shops, play park, skate park, and tennis courts. The nearest beach is a 5-minute drive away, while the popular wedding venue, Polhawn Fort, is just an 8-minute drive from the cottage.
Guests have full access to the entire house, which includes three bedrooms - two with comfortable king-size beds and one with a single bed. The large living room features a log burner, cozy furniture, blankets, and a selection of board games and local maps for guests to enjoy. The main bathroom with a bath and shower is located upstairs near the bedrooms, while a small toilet is available downstairs in the porch. The fully equipped kitchen offers views of the lake and resident ducks, with a small patio area outside for BBQs and a picnic bench in the front.
Sustainability is a priority for the property owners, and they have incorporated eco-friendly practices throughout the house. While young children are welcome, the house may not be ideally set up for them due to steep staircases and lack of equipment. However, two stair-gates are provided, and guests are encouraged to reach out with any questions or concerns. The vacation home is situated in Torpoint, with nearby attractions including Mount Edgcumbe House and Country Park, Port Eliot, South West Coast Path Section 35 Trailhead, and Torpoint Ferry. Adventure Bay Surf School and Antony Woodland Garden are also recommended places to visit in the area.
