Sellers insight:Lots of space for family parties and barbecues when we put the marquee up in the field.
I am not overlooked, and there are no close neighbours.
The house is economical to run, with solar panels for the house and solar heating for the swimming pool.
The house is south-facing, so a bit of a suntrap, with the jacuzzi in the garden room.
Part of the woods are sssi and have many flowers and ferns.
The river has many visitors, including kingfishers and dippers. It’s also a popular fishing spot for the family, and we often see the heron.
It was convenient for my grandchildren when they stayed, as buses stop outside for schools to Wadebridge and Camelford.
There are also buses for college and shopping in Bude.
I was drawn here by the historical fact that it was originally a water mill and has many character features, including two inglenook fireplaces, which now have wood burners.
There’s plenty of parking in the private grounds when family bring their motorhomes, with electric hook-up in the field.
We’ve used the field for archery and shooting, and the boys go go-karting.
Mostly, I like to relax in the pool or sit by the river in summer.

Step Inside: Full of warmth and character, the cottage offers a welcoming layout ideal for relaxed country living. The cosy living room, complete with a log burner, leads through to a traditional kitchen featuring a Cornish Heritage oil fired range cooker and a fitted double oven. The kitchen opens into a delightful dining area that enjoys views over the garden, creating a lovely space for family meals and gatherings.

From the main reception area, a garden room offers further space to unwind, with views over the garden and double doors that open into a snug — perfect for reading or quiet evenings in.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts three bedrooms along with a family bathroom, completing this charming and homely cottage.

Step outside: Occupying an exceptional setting with open countryside and woodland surroundings, the property enjoys complete privacy with no near neighbours and is not overlooked. Two gated entrances open into a large courtyard offering ample parking — ideal for visiting family, motorhomes, or even marquee events.

The beautifully maintained grounds extend to include open fields and established woodland, part of which is designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest, rich with wildflowers, ferns, and thriving birdlife including kingfishers, dippers, and herons. A tranquil river winds through the edge of the woodland, where private walks and peaceful fishing spots create a haven of nature and relaxation.

Perfectly designed for outdoor living, the south-facing aspect ensures all-day sunshine, while the expansive grounds have played host to everything from family barbecues and marquee celebrations to archery, go-karting, and peaceful riverside picnics. Adding to the lifestyle appeal, the property also features a covered outdoor swimming pool with solar heating and a garden room complete with jacuzzi.

Open access from the courtyard leads directly into the field with the substantial workshop and garden store close by — offering excellent potential for equestrian or hobby use.
