Description

Daisy's Cottage is everything you would expect from an archetypical Cornish character cottage. Converted from a stone barn to a high standard it has a lovely large garden, woodburning stove and beamed ceilings.  But the best thing about Daisy's Cottage is its truly rural and quiet location down a farm lane on the side of a wooded valley close to the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty of Bodmin Moor.  The leafy country lanes are just stunningly beautiful in dappled sunshine and breathtaking views from the moor just a mile or so away allow you to see all the way to the North coast and Atlantic Ocean.  The village of St Breward, just over a mile from Daisy's Cottage boasts the highest pub and church in Cornwall.  The friendly ancient pub is called The Old Inn, it is built of solid granite with slate flagstone floors, two huge granite fireplaces, real fires in winter and a restaurant to the rear, free wifi is also available.  The area is superb for walkers, with woodlands and moors teeming with wildlife, and is also ideally situated to explore the beaches and coastline both sides of the county; The Camel Trail starts just a mile further on from St Breward at Wenford Bridge - 18 miles of former railway line beside the River Camel, now converted to a level cycle trail, bikes can be hired locally.

Reviews

Daisy's Cottage exceeded our expectations! It was perfect for two adults, a child and a dog, being cosy but with enough space for us not to be on top of each other. We unfortunately didn't manage to make much use of the garden due to the weather, but it would've been perfect for everyone and particularly the child and dog! The location is quiet and out of the way, whilst being 2 minutes to a main road and access to lots of local attractions. We would definitely return

Mrs M,

It was a beautiful cottage, and every need had been catered for.

Mr Peter W,

A charming property, with characterful thick stone walls, tastefully converted, and thoughtfully equipped. The setting for the property is exceptional being attractive, private and with a generous garden.

Mrs L,

We had a wonderful stay in Daisy’s which was tastefully decorated for Christmas. It is a delightful and comfortable property in a quiet location. It has a large enclosed garden which was ideal for our dogs. There are no walks directly from the property but a short drive takes you to the Camel Trail. This was our second stay at Daisy’s cottage and we would recommend it and hope to return sometime in the future.

Mrs B,

Location

If ever there was a place to fully appreciate the stark beauty of the Cornish landscape, Bodmin Moor has to be it.  With endless sweeping vistas in every direction, tumbled outcrops of granite, and inviting paths and tracks to explore, this area of Cornwall is a walker's paradise.  The famous Jamaica Inn is sited here, with all its literary and historical associations.  With plenty of sheep and moorland ponies wandering freely (be sure to keep your dog under control!) you can almost imagine you have been transported back to those bygone days.  More recently, of course, the moor was used extensively for filming on the new adaptation of Poldark.  When the dashing Mr Poldark gallops across your screen, you may well be seeing the scenery of the moor in the background. A large part of the moor has been designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest.  This region also has its fair share of Arthurian legends, another facet which lends a mysterious air to the landscape, and an extra depth to Cornwall's rich and varied history, and of course who can forget the rumours of the Beast of Bodmin Moor? The many other attractions, including the National Trust's Lanhydrock House, the verdant and flourishing Tamar Valley, historic sites such as castles, the Bodmin and Wenford Railway, and plenty of evidence of Cornwall's mining legacy, make this area a must-see.
