3 Bedroom Cottage in Bodmin

One of a pair of charming barn conversions on a 10-acre horse farm close to the southern edge of wild Bodmin Moor, this carefully finished property has solid farmhouse style and beautiful original features. The rough-textured stone frontage is softened by colourful climbing plants. There's a private hot tub and your own patio with a BBQ and seating to enjoy relaxing summer evenings.

Inside, the overall feel is of a welcoming comfort, marrying traditional materials with modern colour touches. You'll enjoy the original slate floor and the feature fireplace with its warm-hued, massive stone blocks. Two comfy leather sofas make the cosy lounge just the place to enjoy the crackle of the wood burner while you plan the next day's adventures. Or if it's a balmy evening why not fire up the BBQ, especially if you've bought some fresh locally-caught fish or speciality sausages?

Bodmin Moor, where ponies and cattle roam free to graze, has fantastic views to reward walkers who aim high - Cornwall's highest peak, Roughtor, 12 miles away, commands an epic 360-degree wonder. A day on horseback will give you a different viewpoint as you canter across sweeping moors. For a less energetic day trip, drive to the South Cornwall coast through lush rolling countryside to the sheltered harbour of Fowey 16 miles away, for fish and chips as you watch the yachts come and go, or have a classic Cornish beach day at golden Par Sands, 14 miles away.
