An exquisite nature inspired retreat created for two

Stay amongst the beautiful oasis of Boslagen as it seamlessly blends back into nature and appears as if romantically floating on its own natural pond. A dreamy setting inspired by the owner whose focus on low-carbon and sustainable options complemented her passion to provide an exquisite holiday experience like no other. This architecturally inspiring pavilion offers a generous space for couples to call home for a while. Dressed in the very best fabrics and furnishings, the ensuite bedroom and open plan living, kitchen and dining spaces embrace the orchard, meadow and woodland views from the full height glass walls. A wrap around veranda floats over the water where guests can while away the evenings and soak in the outdoor, sit up Japanese bath for two. The playground of north Cornwall is a short trip away, waiting to host adventurous souls or those looking to embrace a slower pace of Cornish life. Boslagen has been created for adults only, no babes in arms . 

Boslagen was absolutely amazing. The decor and fittings are second to none. We felt so at home there from the moment we arrived. Everything we needed, and more, was provided. What a wonderful property and we can't wait to return. The service was amazing. Thanks so much for calling and emailing to check everything was OK.

Step Inside

Step over the footbridge and arrive at Boslagen, a single-storey glass pavilion surrounded by the still waters of the natural pond. Once inside, the Cornish light and serene spaces combine to evoke a feeling of calm and wellbeing. Taking cues from nature, an organic inspired interior palette is complemented with the finest furnishings including new, repurposed and antiques for an individual aesthetic. The romantic bedroom is as appealing as any boutique hotel with beautiful linens and the green views of the meadow and surrounding woodlands. Reeds and grasses edge the natural pond and the water reflects on the roof of your room for complete harmony. The contemporary bathroom inlcudes a walk in drench shower, a separate WC with glass ceiling and Osborne and Little 'Lamorran' wallpaper. Open the bathroom door and step onto the deck where the outdoor bath sits over the pond - the perfect al fresco pamper experience.  The open plan living, kitchen and dining space has been designed for two guests to while away the days whether quiet time with a book, a Cornwall base from which to explore or even perhaps a space to work away from home. 

On Your Doorstep

The benefits of a waterside view are well documented; a sense of calm, the meditative appeal of rippling water, a tonic for the soul. Set over the pond, the veranda of Boslagen wraps around the pavilion to give pockets of seating from which to gaze on the water and follow the Cornish sun. The natural pond is an ecosystem of its own where native reeds and grasses, frogs and other pond dwellers can be seen and, in time, the local Moorhens will no doubt call this water-idyl home too. Squish together on the oversized sun cushions, share a local bottle of wine and dine at the bistro table. Wander barefoot in the wild flower meadow, pick orchard fruits in the summer and enjoy the green spaces from your holiday door. Boslagen offers a plum location for north Cornwall adventures. Surfing, swimming, kayaking, walking can all be part of your holiday agenda and when it comes to places to eat, Cornwall is blessed with some lip-smacking options from beachside pop-ups to fine dining. Stylish Padstow, characterful Port Isaac, the wild beaches of the Seven Bays, Daymer and Polzeath await. 

Boslagen is very special indeed and welcomes couples to embrace a little Cornish zen and luxury, whatever the occasion, whatever the season.
