Description
One of five beautifully converted barns which, along with The Farmhouse, now form the peaceful farm hamlet of Trenarlett, Ben's Barn is a very spacious luxury cottage for two; romantic, cosy and comfortable but also eco-friendly, top quality and with great attention to detail. Tucked away down a quiet lane on the side of the Camel Valley, enjoy the wonderful surroundings in this truly relaxing hideaway. Sit in your own sunny enclosed private garden with the morning papers and later maybe a glass of wine whilst the barbecue gets going! Opportunities for walking and cycling are endless, not least with the Camel Trail at the bottom of the lane. Bodmin Moor, numerous beaches, the Coast path and unlimited places of interest for days out are all close by. Though totally detached and independent from each other, any of the cottages can be booked together for larger parties. The surrounding three villages each have a well stocked shop, post office and thriving pub, between them serving a wide variety of food and ales and a warm welcome, even in winter with their real fires! Away from it all yet with loads to see and do all around you, Ben's Barn is the perfect base and is well equipped with everything you need for a truly relaxing holiday. See also information on The West Wing, The West Wing Plus, Barney's Cottage, Hetty's and Dickins' Cottage. Check out additional services available via the owners.

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.
