The Count House at Okel Tor Mine - Self-catering in Cornwall
Calstock, PL18 9SQ, Cornwall
England,
Regno Unito
Celebrate your tenth (tin) anniversary in this light and airy open-plan space with a table in the window for those glorious views, a comfy sofa and lots of games and books in case the weather turns. Pale colour schemes are restful, the kitchen has all you need to cook for two and you'll find basics in the cupboards, locally-sourced snacks or biscuits and plenty of kindling and logs for the wood-burner. It couldn't be cosier.
Off here is a small bedroom with a big bed, lovely white cotton sheets, plump pillows and duvet; a little shower room is just the ticket after a day spent walking or shopping. Outside is gorgeous with a decked area, table and chairs, those wide views and plenty of birdlife in the mature oak and beech trees - don't forget to bring binoculars. There's a shared barbecue for long light summer evenings feeling quite private.
There are magical footpaths from the door, through woods, to the river and back, or head to pretty Calstock for a pub lunch.

Local points of interest from Jon & Jenny Tully:
Punti d'interesse locali da
Jon & Jenny Tully:
- Nature and heritage entwined in a unique setting. Explore the woodland and riverside paths and archaeological remains. Experience the tranquillity, sweeping views across the river and dark night sky. Perhaps sketch or paint, or simply relax with a book.
- Enjoy a complimentary guided tour of the ruined mine buildings, including the most interesting archaeological features on the 16-acre site and an explanation of the mine’s history. Just ask when making your booking or on arrival.
- Celebrate your 10th (tin) anniversary in a Cornish tin mine! Each cottage has been carefully restored, tastefully decorated and fitted with a log burning stove to create a comfortable and cosy retreat, perfect for a couple seeking a romantic break.
- The National Trust's Cotehele is a short walk along the river - a medieval house with gardens spilling down to an historic quay where you can enjoy a cream tea or ice cream. National Trust properties Buckland Abbey, Anthony and Lanhydrock are also nearby.
- Great walking. The Tamara Way coast-to-coast path passes right through Okel Tor Mine and the spectacular views from Kit Hill are nearby too. Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor are less than 30 minutes’ drive and lovely Cornish beaches not much further.
- The local area really is “Beyond Paradise”! Explore nearby locations for the famous TV series, which include Calstock, Pentillie Estate and Looe. Or take a train on the Tamar Valley branch line to Plymouth & catch the ferry back to Calstock.
