This stunning Cornish retreat really does end your search for the perfect romantic getaway. Nestled on the outskirts of Bodmin Moor, it's a mere 1.5 miles from the charming village of St Breward, where a welcoming pub and a well-stocked village shop, featuring a wide selection of local products available for convenient online delivery, await. The cottage provides direct access to an abundance of walking trails, including the highest peaks in Cornwall, Rough Tor and Brown Willy, with breath-taking panoramic views of both the south and north Cornish coasts on clear days. Alternatively, you can embark on an 18-mile adventure along the picturesque Camel Trail, starting at Wenford Bridge and following a disused railway line through scenic countryside. Within a 10-mile drive lies the charming market town of Wadebridge, while a 15-mile journey takes you to Rock, where you can catch a ferry to the bustling fishing haven of Padstow, renowned for its active fishing harbor and exceptional seafood restaurants.

Stepping inside this stunning escape you will first find yourself in a beautifully light and airy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with beautiful exposed beams overhead, really showcasing the blend of original and contemporary features within the home. This fabulously sociable room boasts a contemporary look with an incredibly cosy corner sofa, as well as an additional armchair and Smart TV allowing you to relax in style whilst watching your favourite films after a day of adventures. Better still, light the log burner and listen in to the crackle and pop of logs after a day of Cornish adventures. The dining space provides the perfect venue for laid-back meals whilst the well-appointed kitchen provides all the appliances needed and more for a stress-free stay. Moving on through the home you will find the bedroom which hosts a king-size bed and ample clothing space, with an accompanying en-suite shower room fitted with a waterfall shower and WC.

Heading outside guests are treated to a shared courtyard style garden. Relax and enjoy some alfresco dining on the outdoor seating or enjoy roasting marshmallows over the fire pit. This escape really does provide something for everyone.

One of the best equipped, if not THE best equipped cottage we have stayed in, impeccably clean and the attention to detail was stunning. An absolutely gorgeous cottage with no expense spared with furnishings. An ideal location for walking and exploring, we loved it and will certainly be back !

Gwyns is a beautifully designed and appointed barn conversion to provide comfort, warmth and total relaxation for a holiday in good weather and not-so good weather. Its location on Bodmin Moor affords wonderful walking and views for miles and it is only 1.5 miles from St Breward where The Old Inn serves excellent food and atmosphere and a short diRead morestance to Wenford Bridge where you can join the Camel Trail for walking or cycling. Gwyns with all of its furnishings and equipment is like home from home and gave us and our two dogs a wonderful weeks holiday and we would recommend it to anyone. Hide

Gwyns is located in a beautiful location on Bodmin Moor and no need to get in your car for local walks including the nearby Alex Tor. We would highly recommend Gwyns with Dawn and Gerry being the ideal hosts. A lovely welcome of a Cornish Cream Tea was a bonus on arrival. We will definitely book Gwyns again. Hide

Where do we start. A great central location for both the North and the South coasts. The moors 360 degrees of them right outside the door. And when you add in a stunning little cottage and the most wonderful hosts you get Gwyns! A beautifully finished and spacious cottage. No expense spared on the finish/fixtures and fittings, a brilliant log burnRead moreer! And a whole new meaning to the word comfy. The sofa you can just melt into and the bed will have you questioning whether or not you need to get out of it. (Plus you can bring your furry friends) Thank you to our amazing hosts Dawn and Gerry for a wonderful Christmas getaway. They gave us milk when we forgot ours and a list of local events happening over the time we were staying. Definitely take the walk across the moors to The Old Inn and grab a pint. Gwyns is now one of our firm favourites and we will be back! Hide
