Perfect for year-round holidays and romantic breaks, The Platt is a detached, timbered, single-storey property at the end of long driveway. A lovely hideaway for couples of all ages looking for a very rural, quiet location, tucked away in a peaceful spot, and away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. A feature corner window in the dining area provides a spectacular view of surrounding countryside, across river valleys, woodlands, and fields. The large, spacious balcony is ideal for warm sunny days and evenings outside. In the living room, a cosy wood burner can be a welcome addition on a chilly evening or if the look of a warm fire just takes your fancy. The property is deceptively spacious, light, bright and airy with big French windows leading from the open plan living accommodation onto the decked balcony. French windows also open out from the double bedroom, so that you can lay in bed and enjoy unspoilt views of the Inny and Tamar River Valleys, and the quietness of the countryside. The kitchen is modern with plenty of workspace, cupboards, and a large Range cooker. There are wooden and tiled floors throughout and carpet in the bedroom.
Set in the tiny hamlet of Rezare in the Tamar Valley, midway between Launceston and Callington. Bodmin Moor is within 5 miles, and Dartmoor is 12 miles away. Both places are wonderful for walking, with amazing views, and full of history. The area is ideal for walking, fishing, and other countryside activities. There is a well-stocked village shop and post office within 1 mile at Stoke Climsland and other pubs and restaurants in the local area. Conveniently located midway between the north and south coasts, The Platt is a perfect place from which to explore the stunning coastline, sandy beaches with seas for swimming and surfing, and attractive seaside towns. Beach 21 miles. Shop, pub, and restaurant 1 mile.

Fantastic stay at The Platt. Helen was a great host and left us some welcome treats for both the humans and dogs. The location is rural which is exactly what we were looking for. The property is well looked after and clean, my only suggestion would be that the shower head could be replaced.We would definitely stay again!

Eine wunderschöne Hütte in ruhiger Umgebung. Tolle Ausicht auf die Landschaft. Die Gastgeber sind super freundlich und haben uns viele Tipps für Ausflüge in die Umgebung gegeben. Die Hütte war absolut sauber und toll ausgestattet. Hier wird mit Herz vermietet!
