Description Cornish Cream Tea: Carnon Downs

Just a few miles away from the city of Truro, this quaint, stone–cladded cottage is tucked away within thirteen acres of glorious garden and woodland. So, if you’re looking for a private paradise that’s well connected with civilisation, this place hits the nail on the head.

With its wooden beamed frontage and luscious shrubbery, you’ll instantly fall in love with its countrified good looks – and as you step inside beyond the blue front door, a welcoming snug awaits.

The open–plan kitchen–diner is definitely the heart of the home. Leading directly onto the living room, there’s no better space for a spot of socialising with family and friends – and with access to the garden from the patio doors, you won’t need to travel far to soak up the rays.

We love the way the tall windows allow natural light to flood from room to room, making things bright and breezy. The statuesque, beamed ceilings sit high on our list of ‘loves’, too.
