The Cottage

Mount Douglas Farm,
Lelant,
Cornwall,
England

A cosy barn conversion with wonderful views set on a working farm within easy reach of the North Cornish coastline.

Why you'll love staying here

A charming barn conversion set on a small, family-run farm, ideal for extended families or groups of friends seeking a coast and countryside escape. Arranged in a reverse-level layout to make the most of the views, the spacious granite cottage has been thoughtfully furnished to create light and airy accommodation. Features such as sloping ceilings, pine flooring, and a traditional brick fireplace offer a subtle nod to the building’s heritage.

Outside, a decked balcony with distant sea views overlooks the farm, home to grazing horses. There is also a secluded, enclosed garden with outdoor dining furniture, a barbecue, and plenty of safe space for children and dogs to enjoy.

The cottage is perfectly placed for exploring North Cornwall’s stunning coastline, with St Ives, Penzance, and Porthreath all within easy reach. It’s also well located for visiting the Great Gardens of Cornwall and the excellent RSPB reserve at Hayle Estuary, renowned for its rich variety of wetland birdlife.

Carbis Bay is within walking distance, with a beautiful stretch of white sand, clear turquoise waters, a watersports centre, and a small selection of shops and restaurants.
