Quiet Break
Located on the edge of Bodmin Moor with easy access to local and coastal points of interest. This is an ideal location for walkers and person that just wish to get away from the crowds and stay in a very well maintained and peaceful cottage. The cottage was immaculate and well equipped with everything necessary for your stay. We found the local shop a short drive away and managed to get everything we needed. The grounds of the property were exceptional and the walks round the lakes were easy to follow. The dog loved his stay. We would love to go back again.

We loved it!
Very lovely couple who own these beautiful cottages. Before we had even arrived they gave us a courtesy call to advise the road was flooded and offered to help with an alternative route. The cottage was clean and tidy and very well equipped. In a brilliant location where we could walk straight out around the lakes or straight onto the moors. Cream tea on arrival was a very scrummy treat! Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay, would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful countryside, peace and tranquility.....
Warm welcome on arrival. Cottage was spotlessly clean and well equipped. Although it was quite nippy outside, the storage heaters kept us as warm as toast. Beautiful views across the moor. Even though we were not anglers, we enjoyed our walks around the immaculately maintained fishing lakes. The only minor minus point was that the beds were a bit on the hard side, but all-in-all excellent value for money and would certainly book here again
