If you are looking for a gorgeous Cornish retreat within a spectacular country estate with endless activities, then look no further than Lostwithiel House! Lostwithiel House is one of two cottages set within the stable yard of Lostwithiel Manor Estate, surrounded by landscaped gardens, woodland, lakes and a historic deer park. Designed by Sir John Soane and beautifully refurbished by Sarah Fortescue Designs, this charming three-bedroom cottage combines historic character with colourful, contemporary interiors. Perfect for families or friends, the cottage enjoys access to the estate’s endless activities, while Cornwall’s north and south coasts, beaches and moorland landscapes are all within easy reach.

Inside, Lostwithiel House is stylish, welcoming and full of personality. The first-floor open-plan living and dining area features a stunning vaulted ceiling, comfortable sofas, a smart dining space and a fully equipped modern kitchen, all overlooking the estate grounds. The master bedroom is also on this level, while downstairs you will find two beautifully styled twin bedrooms, each with its own luxurious ensuite bathroom, organic toiletries and soft bathrobes. Throughout the cottage, bold fabrics, playful wallpapers and thoughtful details create a relaxed yet sophisticated atmosphere.

Guests can enjoy alfresco dining on the terrace, stroll through the deer park, relax by the lake or explore the estate’s magnificent gardens and woodland trails.
