About this property

This converted detached former flower packing shed is situated between the village of Bere Alston and Weir Quay next to the owner's home; a lovely studio accommodation promising a peaceful stay for two. Wander past the beautiful grounds and step into The Daffodil Shed, which comprises a wonderful open-plan living area with A-framed beams, and light, airy décor, which creates a vibrant atmosphere to relax in. Among the layout, you will discover a contemporary kitchen/diner graced in a white and grey overtone, perfect for spending time with your loved one’s morning through to evening. With comfy seating you can settle down in style throughout the day, then cosy up in the king size bed which lies adjacent, for a lovely night's sleep. The fresh contemporary feel continues round to the shower room, which finishes the property to a standard of quality. Once you have spent some time relaxing indoors, why not wander outside to the lawned garden, your chance to take in the location at its finest. For adventurous types there is a public slipway onto the tidal River Tamar (with free parking) 0.5 miles away. This is suitable for the launching of canoes, SUP’s etc.. Bere Alston has village stores, post office / bakery, chemist, butchers and pub. Also a pleasant hours walk from the daffodil Shed there is a pleasant riverside pub The Olde Plough at Bere Ferrers. Situated in the beautiful Tamar Valley AONB and West Devon mining UNESCO world heritage site, there are plenty of countryside walks, along quiet lanes and numerous footpaths. Many walks can be taken from the Daffodil Shed doorstep.

Here there is also the renowned Ship Inn. Close to the Daffodil Shed there are two popular National Trust properties, Cotehele and Buckland Abbey. Trains run between Bere Alston and Plymouth, on the picturesque Tamar Valley line, following the river for much of the route. A modern place to stay with your loved ones.

  • Stella

    Beautifully appointed. Perfect for our stay.

  • Alison

    Comfortable, peaceful wigh a delightful garden, full of birds. We nearly cancelled our stay as my brother unexpectedly died in April and we were unsure of funeral dates. However, his funeral was held a week before our due date to arrive. Staying was the best decision; so peaceful, gave me time to think and relax. Thank you for your warm welcome and the lovely touches in the Daffodil Shed .
