KingNestled in the heart of Cornwall, this remarkable 400 year old farmhouse is more than just a holiday cottage, it's an experience. From the moment you arrive, you're greeted by the enchanting beauty of its lovingly tended garden, which provides the perfect backdrop for your stay. The real welcome begins when you step inside, where the owner's exceptional homemade bread and cake await, together with very thoughtful welcome treats and surprises to make you feel instantly at home. Accommodating six lucky guests (but offering a reduction at certain times of year for smaller parties) and two, four-legged friends are most welcome too.
At the heart of this home is a kitchen that any food lover would envy. So practical in its design and quality, it features a twin-oven electric Rangemaster, honed granite worktops, and a timeless double Belfast sink. Whether you're whipping up a simple breakfast or preparing a feast for family and friends, this space is designed to inspire. The large dining-table seats eight which is convenient if you are a larger party and it's the perfect space for gathering and sharing stories of the day's adventures. (You can also book neighbouring property Mount Wise Cottage (2187) that sleeps two, for even more family fun).
The farmhouse's charm is evident in every corner, from its thick granite walls to its original fireplaces. The cosy sitting-room invites you to relax by the wood-burning stove, while the beautifully decorated bedrooms offer peaceful havens for restful nights. Each space has been thoughtfully arranged by the owner (who lives nearby) to balance historic character with modern comfort, creating a truly special place to unwind.
Outside, the magic continues with all the space available for relaxing and exercising dogs. In all, 15 acres of fields with footpaths that take you further afield. Amongst the ferns and granite in the pretty three tiered garden lies a fascinating fogou - a listed structure that is also home to a rare luminous moss. A spacious decking area with a picnic bench provides the perfect spot to unwind, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. It's all these unique features that set Mount Wise Farmhouse apart and are part of its fascinating history.
Centrally located, Mount Wise puts the very best of Cornwall within easy reach. Whether you're drawn to the sandy beaches of the north coast, the serene coves of the south, or the dramatic landscapes of the far west, this is the perfect base for exploring it all. Stithians Reservoir is just a stone's throw away for watersports enthusiasts, while nearby attractions such as the Helford River, Trebah and Glendurgan Gardens, and the historic towns of Falmouth and Porthleven offer endless opportunities for adventure.
As night falls, step outside and look up. With minimal light pollution, the night sky here is a spectacle of stars. On a clear evening, the constellations shine brightly, making stargazing an unforgettable part of your stay. As you gaze upward, don't forget to listen for the sounds of Cornish wildlife, barn owls calling in the distance, bats fluttering silently through the air and buzzards settling into the treetops.
Mount Wise Farmhouse is more than just a place to stay, it's where memories are made. Whether you're here for a family getaway, a romantic escape, or simply a chance to immerse yourself in Cornwall's beauty, this one-of-a-kind retreat promises a holiday you'll treasure forever.
