Are you looking for a unique property with a stunning view for your perfect rural Cornish staycation?
The Signal Box offers a private space where you won’t be overlooked, overheard or disturbed so you can get away from it all to find some peace and tranquility.
On arrival it’s easy to experience the feeling of being transported back in time; Old Luckett Station has retained enough of it’s original form to be easily recognisable as a train station – access to The Signal Box takes you down from the upper driveway onto the lower driveway where you’ll be travelling on the path of the original train tracks, in between the two platforms; the left hand side is goods (where the old station house is located) and the right hand side is passenger, where you’ll see the old waiting room with the old railway bridge located behind you.
The station closed in 1966 but as you make your way along the line towards the end of the drive, it’s nostalgic to think that steam trains once travelled this same route…
As you arrive at the gate to the Signal Box you reach the end of our line but this path would once have continued all the way to Plymouth along the then Tamar Valley line.
On arrival you’ll discover that you have your very own ‘room with a view’ it’s a breathtaking sight overlooking the stunning Tamar Valley and Dartmoor National Park, the view is ever changing throughout the day with different weather and light conditions – perfect if you’re an artist, photographer or a countryside and nature lover.
The hot tub is right outside the back doors, ready and waiting for you to enjoy a relaxing soak with some invigorating body jets whenever it suits, there’s also a shower conveniently located beside the hot tub
You’ll have all the cooking and dining facilities you’ll need for creating a feast during your stay and if the weather allows, there’s a kettle BBQ, perfect for some alfresco cooking and dining
If you’re bringing your dog along, you can relax as they enjoy the freedom of a fully fenced safe and secure space – your pet can come and go from the cabin to the patio and garden without any worry
The accommodation is open plan and cosy, ideal for couples to spend some precious time together, if you like nothing better than to sink into a comfy bed, you’ll be right at home here, the fresh air and quiet location affords a good night’s sleep
Maybe you like to lie in bed watching TV and to access your Netflix or Amazon Prime account whilst you’re away? That’s no problem, the wall mounted smart TV is easy to manage and you’ll be logged into your account and watching your favourite box set in no time!
There’s a small dining table and two comfortable chairs which can also double up as an office space for those needing to work whilst away and there’s a great Wi-Fi signal too
The hot tub is right outside the back doors, always ready and waiting for you to enjoy a relaxing soak with some invigorating body jets whenever it suits, there’s also a convenient shower beside the hot tub
