Converted barn: parking, super-king bed & views

Description

Cosy comfort meets quaint charm in this pocket-sized, upside-down barn that has oodles of character and unbeatable views. The Pigsty is a converted barn that was originally – you guessed it – a pigsty! It’s now been lovingly converted to provide a quirky “upside-down” retreat for couples, or the perfect work retreat over 2 floors. Nestled just four miles from the bustling heart of Falmouth, our smallholding offers a rural getaway just minutes from Cornwall’s best beaches and attractions. The space The Pigsty Highlights: 'Supersized fun' - Experience superking comfort in the mammoth bed. - Stream the TV you love with a Smart TV and WiFi, or relax to your favourite music with a DAB Bluetooth radio. - Refresh yourself in the spacious walk-in shower. - Get inspired in the 'nook' overlooking the Cornish countryside. - Unwind on your own private patio with a glass of wine enjoying views over the orchard.
