Nestled deep in the Cornish countryside, between the charming towns of Lostwithiel and St Austell, you’ll uncover a truly special retreat within the award-winning Hidden Valley Gardens. Currently closed to the public, the three acres of gardens are a haven for both flora and fauna, offering a serene sanctuary where mature plants, shrubs, and grasses flourish alongside native wildlife such as woodpeckers, deer, and owls.

A short set of wooden steps leads you to a cosy, welcoming open-plan retreat designed to immerse you in nature. The space features stylish armchairs around a TV and dining area, alongside a divine double bed, all bathed in natural light that pours in through a stunning half-moon window. There is also a small, functional kitchen for preparing simple meals and a spacious bathroom with a bath and shower attachment.

Step outside onto your private decking area, where the beauty of the gardens unfolds before you, this tranquil spot is ideal for relaxing with a morning coffee or sundowner as you take in the peaceful surroundings. Occasionally, you may catch the gentle sound of a train as it trundles along the nearby railway line, connecting Par Station, home to one of the last manned signal boxes, with Newquay and Plymouth.

If you can bear to leave this enchanting haven, there are plenty of things to do in the surrounding area. Par Beach is just three miles away, boasting a wide, golden sandy beach, framed by cliffs and the iconic China clay works, which offers a unique contrast between natural beauty and industry. Visit Charlestown and take a step back in time, while visiting its historic and unchanged quay, showcasing a small fleet of tall ships, along with a fascinating museum and an array of restaurants and pubs to choose from after a day of exploration.

Enjoy a fascinating tour and gin-making experience, or simply make your way to the world-renowned Eden Project, just a short drive away, to explore its iconic biomes that house diverse plant species from around the world. A little further, the enchanting town of Fowey awaits. Known for its celebrity chef-inspired restaurants, narrow streets, and boutique shops, Fowey is the perfect spot for a day of exploration and indulgence.
