Lantallack Cottages


In April 2010 we will have 2 beautiful cottages to let...both with stunning views over the  surrounding countryside.  Take a look at what we have been up to!





This is 'Polly's Bower' a 300 year old apple crushing barn which is being converted into a romantic hideaway for 2.  We have kept all the original beams:



                        Before                                 Getting There!      



The accommodation will be open plan, with beautiful oak floors throughout, a contemporary bathroom and kitchen, superking vi-spring bed, wood-burner and french windows to take in the view:
