Here you can decant after a day exploring coast or country. Located next to this there is an undeniably useful utility room offering further storage and a washing machine. Now head up the stairs and onto the first floor where the accommodation opens into a beautifully light and airy loft-style apartment, with the first area being a brilliantly appointed kitchen with an electric oven and hob, microwave and a fridge/freezer. Located just beyond this is the spacious lounge/diner which includes comfortable seating arranged around a Smart TV, plus a dining area that provides a perfect venue for relaxed meals.

A lovely place to stay and our third stay has been as good as the previous two visits. Our dog is welcome and it is a perfect size for a couple with or without a dog. Facilities are very good with an excellent kitchen and very good bathroom. Parking is right outside and there is outside seating looking out over fields.

Well presented flat above garage/gatehouse with open plan lounge kitchen and dining, with bedroom and bathroom off lounge. Dog friendly with large garden area for your use but not enclosed and there were sheep in the next field. A small, enclosed area would be great especially for early morning and night time dog toileting. Great base for exploringRead more Devon and Cornwall. English Heritage properties such as Launceston castle with a view of st Stephen's church and the vicarage from the top. Hide

Another lovely visit to Church View. Perfect for a couple and in our case Henny the Dachshund. Very friendly hosts and very clean accommodation. Everything provided for a great week and the location is perfect for visiting the Cornwall coast and exploring West Devon. This was our second visit and we have already booked our third!

A nice apartment in beautiful grounds. Very quiet and peaceful, but a long walk into town, especially coming back as the hill is very steep. Thankfully there is a bus you can take into Launceston if you don't want to drive.
