  • 100-year-old traditional cottage set on a working farm with beautiful original features
  • Spectacular gardens with a pond, small boat and stream for paddling
  • Located just under 2 miles from the pub and surrounded by verdant countryside
Property code: OC-N27747

With fabulous views of Bodmin Moor, Caradon Hill and the village of Minions, as well as lovely countryside walks and woodlands to explore, this really is a delightful farm homestead just perfect for families. The traditional farmhouse is over 100 years old and has been in the same family for three generations. The owners still live in the adjoining annexe but are completely separate from the house. Rilla Mill is located practically midway between the north and south Cornish coastlines, which makes exploring the county very easy. Quaint fishing villages on the south coast such as Looe and Polperro are a perfect day out, offering boat trips and plenty of cafes and shops to explore, as well as some fantastic walks.

Head through the beautiful front entrance and into a grand hallway with a high ceiling. Off the hall is the large farmhouse kitchen with feature Aga, a central kitchen table, original flagstone flooring and stunning views of the manicured gardens. This really is the heart of the home and is perfect for getting together with all the family. Across the hallway is a large lounge with a wood burner, comfy seating, a piano, and French doors leading to the flower-filled garden. This makes for a lovely room to relax, watch a film or gather around the piano for a good old sing-song. The utility room is handy for storing walking boots and other outdoor items. Upstairs is a split landing with WC, as well as three great-size bedrooms, all with stunning views: a super-king-size, a super-king-size zip-and-link, and a double zip-and-link. Finally, there is a large family bathroom.

Outside is a vast garden, ideal for a game of rounders or football. There is a patio area with garden furniture and BBQ, perfect on a summer’s day. The pond is 100 metres from the house and has a little boat as well as a sweet little stream that can be used for a paddle (children must be supervised at all times). There are also chickens on site and fresh eggs available when they are laying.

  • 3 bedrooms - 1 super-king- size, 1 super-king zip-and-link (can be made up as a twin on request) 1 double-size zip-and-link (can be 2ft 6in twin beds on request)

We had a brilliant stay. Diana and John were wonderful hosts, the house was amazing and had everything we needed for a family week away. The garden and views are stunning. The lemon cake on arrival was very welcome after a long drive! Looking forward to visiting again!

The holiday accommodation at North Coombe Farm is top class in all regards. In addition to its superb location (a great base from which to explore most of Cornwall and Devon) the property is light, spacious, well decorated, clean, warm, comfortable and welcoming. We would particularly commend the kitchen and its equipment. All the windows overlook Read morethe superb garden that sweeps down over the lawn to the stream and pond. The owner, Diana, is close by to offer assistance, but is never intrusive (by the way, her Lemon Cake is top notch as well). Even the good natured farm dogs occasionally chip in with a little good natured entertainment !! Overall, North Coomb Farm is highly recommended; we will definitely return. Hide

We spent a wonderful time at North Combe Farm with its beautiful garden and the incredible views of Bodmin Moor. The house is well maintained, equipped and decorated. The moment you step through the front door you feel home. Diana is a perfect host surprising us with cake and a complete afternoon tea, not to forget fresh eggs. The complete silenRead moretness of the surrounding, the flowers and tiny lanes provide the perfect Cornwall flair, hence offering all amenities within 20 minutes. The beaches, many NT properties and gardens, Dartmoor and loads of interesting places are nearby. We can only recommend to spend the holidays there. Hide
