Set in the heart of stylish Lostwithiel, South Cornwall, grade II listed Boseglos House is no ordinary home. Originally a mid 18th century cottage, this landmark house has been sensitively renovated to present first class luxury living for up to 8 guests. The Gothic revival extension of the property was completed in the mid 1800's by the architect GE Street who was a pupil of William Morris and also designed the Royal Courts of Justice in the Strand, London. A beguiling mix of opulent fabrics, country kitchen chic and indulgent boutique bedrooms await behind your holiday door. Step out and explore the characterful town of Lostwithiel, one of Cornwall's best kept secrets with an intriguing collection of antique and decorative interior shops, cool cafes, restaurants and pubs. The central location in the county ensures easy access to nearby Fowey and Charlestown, the sandy beaches of St Austell Bay and rural Bodmin moor. A private annex for two can easily be created.
