Set close to the main road, this really is the ideal location to use as your base for your adventures.
The barge sits alongside her own quay dating back to 1720 and was connected to the famous Perran foundry which exported castings around the world and is part of an UNESCO World Heritage Site. There is one other neighbouring boat accessed by the path at the back of the lawn with its own private garden and the owner's workshop, but we ensure they will not disturb you during your stay. The owners of Mistery 2 want to ensure you have a truly relaxing and memorable stay aboard their barge, they will pop along to welcome you and to explain the quirky charms of the barge, you might also see them from time to time when they just pop along to water their poly tunnel and are of course willing to give a guided tour if you wish, but it is set up so you will not be disturbed.
From doors made of Hull City library panels to teak decking from old ships this barge is rich in history. Mark and Loz, creators of the barge Mistery 2 have put their heart and soul into the creation of this wonderful place, recycling materials to create a unique and special place. The internet at Mistery 2 can be a little temperamental and is best in the day if you want to carry out any research for your adventures, and the owners have a vast library of DVDs to choose from with some great classics. There is also a second shower-room to ensure that you do not need to share. The second bedroom has a V-shaped king-size bed which can also be set up as twins depending on your party. The two bedrooms (called cabins on a boat) are set at each end of the barge - the main bedroom has a stunning bed where you can look out over the garden and hear the birdsong, it also has an en suite shower-room (called heads on a boat) and a separate WC. With the doors open you can walk across the hull door and up the timber steps to the garden with your yoga mat, book or glass of wine. The corner sofa provides a cosy nook to sit, through the double glass doors look out to steps made from large bulks of docks timber which echo the historical past of the quay. The captain's dining-table has large comfortable chairs with snuggly sheepskin to sink into, sit back and relax with a glass of red whilst reading your favourite book. The hard-wearing kitchen surfaces are recycled Falmouth docks pilings and have been beautifully varnished. It really is a dreamy location.Īmble down the gangway and into the light and airy barge it has lovely open plan living space with a large galley which has everything you might need to prep a delicious meal. Set within two acres of land with direct river access to the tidal upper reaches of the river for paddle boarding or kayaking. Nestled in a small tidal canal, which fills with water at the top of spring tides every other week, it is easy to let the day drift away in this lovely location just as the tide ebbs and flows. Just around the river bend near the head of the River Kennal is a fabulous home created by shipwrights.
