Location

Set on the fringe of the charming coastal village of Tintagel which is famed for its links with the legendary King Arthur, whose castle ruins still stand prominently as a major tourist attraction within this region. The barn is found within easy walk of the local facilities within the village, including Primary school, Church, medical centre, garage, multiple pubs and restaurants and convenience stores. Much of the surrounding coastline is within ownership of the National Trust guaranteeing miles of unspoilt coastal countryside in both directions. To the opposing side of Tintagel and within easy motoring distance is the picturesque Elizabethan harbour village of Boscastle. The property is ideally located for exploring both the wild and romantic Bodmin Moor and North Cornwall's rugged coastline, famous for its spectacular cliff scenery, wide sandy beaches and traditional fishing villages. The historic market town of Camelford which lies along the wooded banks of the River Camel is approximately five miles inland and offers a comprehensive range of professional, education, recreational and shopping facilities including: County Library, County Primary and Secondary Schools, Medical Centre, Leisure Centre and Bowood Park 18-hole Golf Course. The towns of Bodmin, Wadebridge and Launceston are within easy driving distance and the cities of Truro, Plymouth and Exeter are approximately one hour away by car.

With its established mature trees surrounding the location, it feels completely private and tranquil but with the convenience of being just a stones throw from facilities.

The property briefly comprises of the following:- entrance hall, cloakroom, kitchen/dining room with utility cupboard and lounge. On the first floor there are two bedrooms and a shower room.
