The Cow Shed is a delightful holiday annex tucked away in the peaceful area of Gloweth, just outside Truro in Cornwall.

With handy off-road parking for two cars, it’s a great choice for couples in search of a quiet escape among the rolling Cornish countryside.

Step inside and you’ll discover a bright, single-storey space with an easy, open-plan layout designed for both comfort and practicality.

The kitchen comes fully equipped for rustling up your favourite dishes, while the dining table nearby offers a relaxed setting for everything from leisurely breakfasts to evening plans.

The sitting area, complete with a Smart TV, is the perfect spot to put your feet up, whether you're settling in with a good book or unwinding in front of a film.

Outside, the front patio is a pleasant place to start the day with a cup of tea or watch the sun dip behind the trees with a glass in hand.

The property features a well-presented king-size bedroom, where calming décor and a sofa bed provide both comfort and flexibility.

The sleek shower room includes a handy washer/dryer, making longer stays all the more convenient.

The property is located on a smallholding of 2 1/2 acres and guests are welcome to explore the grounds, which include a polytunnel, orchard, friendly sheep and chickens.

When you’re ready to explore further, you’ll find no shortage of things to see and do.

Begin with a visit to the dramatic St Agnes Heritage Coast, where cliffside paths and sweeping sea views await.

Head a little further to Pendennis Castle and take in centuries of history alongside commanding views across the headland.

The Roseland Heritage Coast also offers a patchwork of hidden coves, golden sands and far-reaching sea vistas.

In Truro, admire the towering spires of the cathedral or take a leisurely cruise aboard the iconic King Harry Ferry, drifting past peaceful riverbanks and wooded shores.

Don’t miss the chance to visit the National Trust’s St Anthony Head, with its breathtaking outlook over Falmouth Bay and peaceful trails through the surrounding woodland.

After a day of discovery, return to The Cow Shed and enjoy a quiet evening beneath the stars.
