Forge Cottage, nestled in the serene landscape of St Clether in Launceston, Cornwall, is a beautifully restored 17th-century barn that offers a charming retreat for up to seven guests. Originally a grain storage facility for the nearby Watermill, this picturesque accommodation is part of Ta Mill, which features 15 quality self-catering cottages and lodges. Surrounded by a secluded garden, Forge Cottage provides a tranquil escape while being conveniently located near the ancient beauty of Bodmin Moor and the stunning surfing beaches of the north coast, just a short 20-minute drive away.
The interior of Forge Cottage is designed to maximize comfort and warmth, particularly in the inviting ground-floor sitting room.

The adjoining kitchen and dining area are well-equipped with modern appliances, including an electric oven, microwave, and dishwasher, making meal preparation enjoyable. A spacious family bathroom on the ground floor adds to the convenience, while the upstairs area features three tastefully decorated bedrooms, ensuring a restful stay for all guests.
The bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged, with two featuring comfortable double beds, and a third accessible room containing three single beds, ideal for accommodating families or extra guests. An additional bathroom upstairs includes essential amenities, enhancing the functionality of the cottage. Outside, guests can enjoy the stone walled garden equipped with a picnic table and a charcoal barbecue, providing a perfect setting for outdoor dining and relaxation amidst nature.
Forge Cottage and its surrounding area offer a variety of activities for guests of all ages. At Ta Mill, visitors can engage in leisure activities such as a 9-hole pitch'n'putt course, a games room with table tennis and pool, and an outdoor play area for children. Fitness enthusiasts will appreciate the fully equipped gym, while those seeking luxury can opt for additional amenities like a hot tub or a wood-fired sauna. The property is pet-friendly, welcoming two well-behaved dogs, and provides essential facilities such as a travel cot and highchair upon request.
