Harford is a charming and character-filled cottage tucked away in the heart of Goldsithney, Cornwall, offering a wonderful base for families and friends looking to explore this beautiful corner of the county.
Rich in quirky features and local history, the property was originally the Timekeeper's Cottage for the nearby Tregurtha Down Tin and Copper Mine.
Workers would clock in at the cottage before making their way through the garden and along Gears Lane to the mine.
The room overlooking the front garden was once used to oversee and monitor the workforce.
