Pet friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 8 - Lerryn, Cornwall

Set in a riverside village on the upper stretch of the River Fowey in South Cornwall, this spacious home from home sleeps eight guests across four bedrooms and is perfectly placed for families who enjoy the choice of coast and countryside to explore. Potter around the pretty local village with its traditional green and welcoming pub. You’re surrounded by the beauty and heritage of the Fowey Ria, part of the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which runs from Par Sands (9 miles) to Looe (10.5 miles).

Take a flight of steps up to the property entrance and step inside this charming home from home where you’ll find bright and airy country-style interiors in coastal hues and sturdy wooden furniture for your lively brood. Domestic goddesses and culinary kings will enjoy cooking with local ingredients and fresh seafood in the well-equipped spacious kitchen, living and dining area with relaxing river views. There’s a handy utility room alongside the kitchen, and a few steps down from here you’ll find a cosy snug room and bean bags, great for guests who want to curl up and enjoy quiet time with a good book.

Enjoy film nights together in the main living space where there’s a cosy wood burner and a set of cottage-style stairs leading up to the three king-size bedrooms (one en-suite and garden access), one twin bedroom, and a stylish family bathroom with a roll-top bath. Outside, there’s a beautiful tiered garden over two levels with steps running up to the BBQ decked terrace which sits alongside your lofty private hot tub where you can relax and enjoy the views out towards the river and the charming village green.
