Description of Polventon Barn
With tranquil views over a peaceful rural valley, this traditional stone and slate detached barn is perfectly situated for those who wish to get away from it all, in a lovely unspoilt area surrounded by beautiful countryside on the edge of Bodmin Moor. Nestling in the small hamlet of Warleggan, the property is set to one side of the owners 17th century farmhouse in an area of outstanding natural beauty with an abundance of birds and wildlife and offers an ideal rural retreat.
Approached from the gated gravel driveway, a path leads to the front door which opens to a delightful, warm and cosy sitting room full of old world charm and with a vaulted ceiling at one end. Sympathetically furnished, the barn has great character with exposed beams and stonework, some slate floors and comfortable lounge seating set before a wood burning stove. An inner hallway and one step leads up to a wet room with shower, W.C and hand basin, and at the end of the hall is a fully fitted galley kitchen with a Belfast sink.
To one side, a doorway opens to a lovely double glazed conservatory which has a rustic dining table and bench seat and a door leading out to a covered sun deck with patio furniture. The secluded rear garden has a gravel terrace and five steps leading down to a hedged and gated lawned garden with lovely views of the surrounding countryside. A hand carved spiral staircase leads up to the long galleried bedroom with a double Victorian brass bed set under the eaves and an additional sitting/reading area. A garage houses the freezer and shared laundry facilities and there is also space available for the storage of bikes and beach gear.
The quiet village of St Neot is 3 miles away where there is a shop, traditional pub and church. The Colliford Tavern on the shores of Colliford Lake is a 10 minute drive. Polventon Barn is conveniently located for the beautiful beaches and cliff paths on both the North and South coast which can be reached in just over half an hour by car as well as the Eden Project. Locally there are excellent walks, fishing, golf and pony trekking available, and cycle trails through Cardinham Woods close by. The old county town of Bodmin with a selection of shops, pubs and a leisure centre is about a 20 minute drive as is Lanhydrock House and Gardens. Water sports are available at Siblyback Lake nearby.
