About this property

Quirky romantic home, pet friendly with pretty garden near Padstow and Beaches

Ideally situated for exploring Cornwall, The pet friendly Birdsong is a delightful quirky dwelling, part shepherds' hut, part modern property, situated in the quiet rural village of St Issey. It is only 4 miles from the unspoilt fishing harbour of Padstow with its famous Seafood restaurants, boat trips and the scenic Camel Trail cycle way. The beautiful sandy beaches of the stunning North Cornish Coast are also only 4 miles away and offer many exciting beach and surfing activities.
Experience the romanticism captured in the two shepherd hut bedrooms, but with all the modern comfort needed for a relaxing holiday, this special detached home will delight lovebirds looking for a unique break from the norm.

Birdsong is accessed by steps leading up from the private parking space to this lovingly restored property.
Both of the romantic bedrooms are original shepherds' huts with double beds and have been sympathetically restored to make the most of their unusual features. Three steps lead down from the bedrooms to the rest of the property.
The sunny sitting room has comfy chairs and a cosy log burning stove. There are plenty of magazines and books in the bookcase, along with local maps, walking books and holiday suggestions. There is a Freeview TV and DVD player with selection of films and if you are unlucky enough to have to bring your work with you, there is a high speed Wi Fi broadband.
The conservatory is the perfect place to relax, overlooking the private patio garden, with French doors leading to the sheltered sunny terrace where you can enjoy Al Fresco dining among the pretty flowering pots, perfect for relaxing afternoons on the sunbeds or evening BBQ's around the fire pit.
The open plan kitchen overlooks the pretty garden, and is well equipped with new dishwasher, electric oven, hob and fridge/freezer.
The bathroom has bath with shower, heated towel rail and washer/dryer machine.
Whether your holiday is with family or friends, for beach holidays or an out of season walking break, Birdsong will make the perfect holiday retreat.
