Luxury countryside retreat in Cornwall w/hot tub, fire pit & stargazing atrium | House in Redruth
3 Bedroom House in Illogan, Redruth
Luxury rural retreat with hot tub, stargazing atrium & coastal access
Tucked away in the peaceful Cornish countryside, The Cowshed is a beautifully reimagined bolthole where laid-back luxury meets wild, rural charm. One of just two carefully curated retreats under the Stay a While Cornwall name, this stunning escape has been thoughtfully designed for guests who love to linger a little longer.
Think morning coffee with horses grazing in the neighbouring field, sunset soaks in your private hot tub, and clear-sky stargazing from your very own atrium or outdoor firepit. Whether you’re craving coastlines or countryside, this place puts you in the sweet spot - just minutes from Portreath beach and the South West Coastal Path, yet blissfully off-grid, surrounded by rolling hills, woodland, and wide open skies.
Inside, you’ll find a warm and welcoming space with a contemporary feel. The open-plan living area is light-filled and inviting, centred around a crackling log burner - perfect for winter getaways, post-surf chills, or curling up with a book after a coastal walk. Interiors blend playful artwork, natural textures, and calming colours, bringing the outdoors in without sacrificing comfort or style.
The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking, featuring modern appliances, a Dulce Gusto coffee machine, quality utensils, and plenty of space to prep. Settle in for memorable dinners around the six-seater table - or, if you're feeling sociable, head to one of the many fantastic local pubs, cafés or restaurants just a short drive away.
The sleeping arrangements:
– One super king bedroom (can be set as twins on request)
– One king bedroom
– NEW Spring 2025: a brand-new ground floor master suite with king size bed & en-suite bathroom - ideal for multi-gen stays or those who prefer fewer stairs.
There are two additional bathrooms, one upstairs and the second on the ground floor, doubling as a multi-functional utility room. Each with thoughtful touches to help you feel instantly at home.
Outside, your private garden offers uninterrupted views across the fields, a bubbling hot tub, an electric BBQ & firepit for sunny days, and the kind of peace and quiet that’s hard to find.
And when you're ready to explore, the coast-to-coast trail is right on your doorstep, offering walking, running, and cycling routes through ancient woodland and all the way to the sea. There’s private off-road parking for three cars, superfast WiFi, and a large smart TV.
What we love:
– The hot tub, stars, and horses (name a better trio?)
– That dreamy glass atrium – your new favourite spot for morning coffee or moonlit chats
– Nearby access to trails for walking, running or cycling
– Close to beaches, surf spots, wild swimming, great food and charming local pubs
– Gorgeous interiors that feel calm and cosy
– Dog-friendly for well-behaved pups who love adventure as much as you do
– Superfast WiFi and a peaceful WFH nook for longer stays
This isn’t just a place to stay - it’s a place to unwind, reconnect and make memories.
Stay a while.
