Carleon Lodge

In an enviable location, this wonderful conversion of two former barns offers guests a comfortable, unique, and very stylish retreat. Carleon Lodge is a conversion of two old granite and serpentine stone barns with a glass atrium ink between, retaining many of its original features which, due to the thoughtful design by the Owner and master craftsmen, will blend seamlessly with contemporary additions. Set out in reverse style, the stunning kitchen/diner will be on the first floor to take advantage of the views through a magnificent glazed gable end with floor to ceiling glass to make the most of the views towards Poldhu Cove in the distance and the lovely summer sunsets. The quality finish will continue with solid oak fitted kitchen, which will have granite work surfaces and Neff appliances throughout. The sitting room is high up across the glass atrium link (stop and admire the stars overhead) as you walk through the magnificent massive stone doorway. This sitting area has a lower half of serpentine stone all around, and vaulted open beamed ceiling made of Douglas fir arches. The room has an inviting warm feel accentuated by a cosy wood burning stove. There are four bedrooms in total, all of which are incredibly spacious. Outside you can take advantage of the private garden, half grass and half concrete for those summer balls games, and with. Sit in the bubbling water and enjoy the spectacular stars over the dark skies of the incredible Lizard Peninsula.
