Coles Cottage is a comfortable 17th century semi-detached cottage located in the quiet hamlet of Derriton near Holsworthy, Cornwall. This cozy and homely retreat features exposed beams, low ceilings, slanting floors, a woodburning stove, and a large collection of books and records. The cottage offers a sitting room, dining room with a piano, kitchen, and a sunny ground floor room with a double bed and garden access. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a bathroom, with guests needing to duck due to low ceiling beams.
The cottage's pretty enclosed garden is filled with roses, herbs, and shrubs, with a patio for relaxing in the sunshine. Holsworthy itself is a market town with a supermarket, cattle markets, local shops, and a friendly golf club. The area, known as Ruby Country, offers trails for horse riders, fishermen, walkers, runners, and cyclists, with some of the darkest night skies in the UK for stargazing. The beaches around Bude, just a 15-minute drive away, are renowned for their clean golden sands and friendly seas.
Staying at Coles Cottage provides the best of both Devon and Cornwall, offering a peaceful countryside retreat not far from the dramatic North Cornwall coastline around Bude. Guests can enjoy the tranquility of the Devon countryside while being close to the vibrant coastal attractions. Whether exploring the local market town, relaxing in the cottage garden, or venturing to the nearby beaches, Coles Cottage offers a delightful escape for up to 7 guests in the South West of England.
