Pet friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 6 - Gulval, Cornwall

Perfectly positioned to enjoy both the countryside and coast, this simply stunning property's tranquil location makes it ideal for family gatherings or a romantic couples retreat, and as pets are welcome make sure your four-legged friend comes too. Explore the shoreline and pretty harbour villages along the South West Coast Path before returning to enjoy a peaceful evening in the stylish interiors of this unique property, as contemporary creature comforts sit harmoniously within the traditional wooden cladding of this barn conversion.
