Cornish Self Catering Holiday Cottages
Bodmin and Bodmin Moor
Mile after mile of open moorland await you here with a stark, baron feeling that offers it's own beauty to all. Whether you stretch your legs climbing the rugged tors, relax in the moorland village inns, explore the ancient stone circles or just generally take time out enjoy Cornwall's wild and mysterious character, don't leave this dramatic landscape undiscovered!
Incredible unspoilt expanses of heathland surround Cornwall's main road and must be observed in the 'flesh' not just through your car window whilst passing through. Take time to explore ancient monuments, strive to conquer Cornwall's highest point, Brown Willy, feast on local fare in welcoming local village inns. If you're feeling energetic take a mountain bike trail, if you're feeling lazy view the lakes, moorland and wonderful countryside from the comfort of your car, whilst winding along the country lanes.
Bodmin moor is dotted with a selection of Cornish self catering cottages offering a “cosy” environment in a setting that is wild and remote. Bodmin Moor is a good choice of self catering holiday location if you are looking for a secluded rural break with a difference!
Blisland
Sample one of the local and speciality ales, over 1000 varieties have been served in the past, in the award winning Blisland Inn, whilst admiring the village green, the only one in Cornwall.

Bodmin Moor
Farmed over 4,000 years ago by Bronze age settlers, one of the last great unspoilt areas in the South West and much of its prehistoric and medieval past remains untouched by the passing of the centuries, climb Brown Willy and Rough Tor and find Dozmary Pool where the Lady of the Lake received King Arthur's sword Excalibur, nearby is Daphne du Maurier's famous Jamaica Inn.
Minions
The highest village in Cornwall, bleak and eerie on a winters day, stunning views over the countryside and to the sea beyond on a summers day, a famous rock formation The Cheesewring dominates the skyline high above the village, a bronze age set of stone circles nearby is referred to as the Hurlers.
Bodmin Moor also holds one of Cornwall’s finest stretches of riverbank at Golitha Falls. Visitors walk a section of riverbank as the cold waters off the high moor tumble through the granite-strewn watercourse underneath a canopy of trees.
Despite its reputation for bleakness, Bodmin Moor is a great place to visit out of season. The mist adds atmosphere around Jamaica Inn and such sites as The Hurlers and there is nothing better than relaxing in front of a fire on an autumn or winter evening in one of our comfortable Cornish self catering cottages tucked away in a small moorland village.
