Description

The Reading Room is a beautifully converted chapel nestled in the peaceful hamlet of Seworgan near Constantine in Cornwall, offering couples an irresistibly romantic countryside retreat. This charming stone-built hideaway is all on one level and brims with character, from its enchanting vaulted and beamed ceilings to its contemporary, elegant décor. Make use of the convenient off-road parking before stepping through the French doors into a bright, airy living space designed for cosy, intimate escapes.

The stylish kitchen invites you to create delicious meals together, complete with an electric oven and hob perfect for preparing indulgent dinners. Share your dishes and raise a toast at the dining table, and later curl up on the plush sofa to enjoy a film on the Smart TV.

On sun-drenched days, the outdoor space becomes your own private haven. Relax on the garden furniture, soaking up the Cornish sunshine, and fire up the barbecue for alfresco dining under blue skies.

As evening settles, retreat indoors to unwind with a soothing soak in the bathroom before warming your feet on the comforting underfloor heating. Slip into your pyjamas and settle into the inviting double bed with a hot chocolate; the soft glow of bedside lamps creates the perfect atmosphere for a few pages of your favourite book.

Surrounded by rolling meadows and wooded valleys leading towards the beautiful Helford River, just three miles away, Seworgan is a quaint rural community with a pub, village shop, and charming church. Wander upstream to Gweek to visit the Cornish Seal Sanctuary, or explore the spectacular nearby gardens, including Penjerrick, Glendurgan, Carwinion, and the stunning subtropical paradise of Trebah.

A short drive brings you to the vibrant coastal town of Falmouth, where you can discover the historic Pendennis Castle, relax on Gyllyngvase Beach with its inviting café, or venture to the picturesque harbour town of Porthleven for exceptional dining experiences.

With its picturesque setting, enchanting features, and easy access to beaches, scenic walks, breathtaking gardens, and delicious Cornish cuisine, The Reading Room is a perfect base for romantic breaks and unforgettable couple’s escapes.

Choose this idyllic property for a truly magical stay.

Beautiful place stunningly peaceful, everything you need is right there for full relaxation, along with being a short drive to some gorgeous locations around the area.

This place is a real gem and, to be honest, the photos don't do it justice.

The Reading Room is large, light and airy, and it seems to do something to you where you just feel peaceful. I wished we could have stayed longer to "do nothing". We were very glad to be able to bump into the hosts (they are easily contactable if needed) and loved learning more about The Reading Room and the location. For us, we love being able to stay somewhere that isn't covered in dog hair, and the only way it could be improved would be to provide access to a washing machine for longer stays. We would not hesitate to return.
