Otterbridge is one of 7 beautifully converted barns with brand new furnishings which now form the peaceful hamlet of Penrose Burden. It has been renovated to create the perfect retreat in a designated dark sky area with stunning views across the Camel Valley. The location provides easy access to North Cornwall coast including Port Isaac, Padstow, Rock, Boscastle and Polzeath and the cottage is perched on the very edge of the majestic Bodmin Moor which is surely one of the last completely unspoilt places in England. Its central location makes both coastlines easily accessible; the South with its long sandy beaches, historic ports, secluded creeks and the Eden Project, and the North with its dramatic cliffs, quiet coves, grand country houses and historic market towns. You can also enjoy a welcome tray of a cream tea on arrival and Organic Trevarno guest toiletries in the bathroom.
The open plan lounge/kitchen/diner is spacious and luxurious, the owners have thought of all their guests needs; there are USB charger points in all the rooms, a cosy log burner and TVs in both bedrooms so it's perfect for families or friends wishing to stay in this wonderful part of Cornwall. If you wish to book the other cottages here, there is also The Linney, Goosehill, Butterwell, Troutstream, Jingles and Snappers.
There is a fabulous local pub nearby serving great food and perfect for a Sunday roast, a well stocked local shop and Post Office and access to walks over Bodmin Moor. A short walk to the start of the Camel Trail for walking or cycling where you can find the fabulous 'Snail's Pace Café' and also close to local craft at Wenfordbridge Pottery. A country lane stroll away, you will also find the lovely St Tudy Inn. Cornwall's favourite attractions are all accessible - Eden, Bodmin and Wenford Railway, Lanhydrock House and Pencarrow House to name but a few.
Otterbridge has been recognised by We Are Cycling UK as a Cycle Friendly Place and is even part of a Strava segment!
