Ribby Farmhouse

A detached farmhouse on the edge of Lerryn village, sleeping eight across four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The lead bedroom is a four-poster king-size with an en-suite and private balcony - a strong draw for groups wanting a central room to organise around. Downstairs, an AGA Range cooker gives serious kitchen capability for longer stays and self-catering groups. The garden has multiple seating areas for evenings outside.

Lansallos Beach is 6.3km away along the south Cornwall coast, and Lantic Bay 6.6km. The village of Lerryn sits on the Lerryn River, a tributary of the Fowey - the tidal creek is 10 minutes' walk from the farmhouse. This suits couples or families who want a quiet inland base with easy access to both coast and estuary walks. Less good for guests who rely on public transport, as a car is essential for reaching beaches from here.

The farmhouse sleeps eight across four bedrooms and three bathrooms - a workable ratio for a group this size. Saturday changeover means most departures align with the standard holiday week. Wifi, garden seating, dishwasher, and washing machine are included; the AGA range cooker is the practical draw for groups wanting to self-cater properly rather than rely on takeaways. Lerryn village, within walking distance, has direct access to the wooded tidal creek walks that make this part of mid-Cornwall worth staying in beyond beach days.
