Welcome to Sandhill House Country Retreat - Bed and Breakfast and Self Catering
Bed and Breakfast in Cornwall
Escape to the Country
Bed and Breakfast in Cornwall takes on a new meaning at Sandhill House. Set in a quiet corner of the Tamar Valley, our adult-only retreat offers peace, space and fresh air.
Here, you can slow down and switch off. With only six guests at a time, the house stays calm and relaxed. As a result, it suits couples, friends and small groups who want time away.
In addition, we are close to a range of excellent local pubs and restaurants. These offer great food and local beers. Tavistock, with even more choice, is just 10 minutes away.
Self-Catering Barn
For more privacy, our Tamar Orchard Barn provides a peaceful self-catering option.
It sits within its own south-facing garden, away from the main house. As a result, you can enjoy complete quiet. You will hear little more than birdsong.
In addition, we now welcome dogs by arrangement. Up to two dogs can stay free of charge.
Discover Cornwall and the Tamar Valley
Sandhill House lies within the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is also part of the Cornwall and Devon Mining World Heritage Site.
Because of this, the area offers both natural beauty and rich history. You can explore Dartmoor National Park and Bodmin Moor. Alternatively, you can visit the historic city of Plymouth.
In addition, the market town of Tavistock is just a short drive away. Both the north and south coasts are within easy reach.
A True Bed and Breakfast in Cornwall Experience
Sandhill House offers a genuine countryside escape. The setting is quiet, and the views are wide. As a result, it is easy to relax from the moment you arrive.
Whether you stay for a weekend or longer, you can enjoy comfort, space and a slower pace of life.

Escape to the Country
Sandhill House is the perfect Bed and Breakfast rural retreat in a ‘hidden’ part of Cornwall. You can escape from the everyday routine, ‘far from the madding crowd’, to enjoy our genuinely peaceful, adult only Bed and Breakfast accommodation. With a maximum of six guests, we are perfect for family or friends to get together for a few days catching up and relaxing. Mentioning, which, we have a fantastic selection of local pubs, that serve good food and even better beers. Also, there are superb restaurants in Tavistock just 10 minutes away by car.
Self-catering Barn
Our even more secluded self-catering, ‘dinky’ Tamar Orchard Barn , which also welcomes adults only, is even quieter! Set in it’s own south facing gardens, where you will only be disturbed by bird song! We are now delighted to confirm that we welcome dogs, when two can come along for free, by arrangement.
Escape to ‘another world’

In addition, Sir Francis Drake’s hometown, Tavistock, is less than 10 minutes drive away from our Bed and Breakfast. The rugged world famous north and sandy south coasts are just 30-40 minutes drive away. Sandhill House is also ideal for exploring several National Trust properties or for business if you prefer to avoid the big hotel chains.

WHAT OUR GUEST SAY
PERFECTION AWAY FROM HOME
A wonderful reception as if we were long lost friends. A beautiful setting in a hidden away part of Cornwall. Access to so many hidden treasures.
“GORGEOUS HOUSE WITH FABULOUS VIEWS”
Only stayed for one night unfortunately, but very glad that we did. What a discovery. Lovely views, in a peaceful and secluded setting, it’s the ideal location for getting away from it all. Wonderfully located for a range of destinations in both Cornwall and Devon
“AFFORDABLE LUXURY, AND EXCEPTIONAL HOSPITALITY”
I brought a dog with me and the owners gave as much care and attention to the dog as they did to me. It was a superb place to stay.
