  • A charming and lovingly furnished traditional granite cottage on the edge of Bodmin Moor
  • Wooden floors, exposed beams and a four-poster bed add further appeal
  • Cosy, enclosed garden for outside dining together

Property code: OC-P00473

Head out on long walks across the spectacular landscape of Bodmin Moor from this delightful, dog-friendly cottage in the scenic village of Blisland. Sleeping six guests, the three-bedroom retreat overlooks the village green, with its children’s playground, and enjoys its own enclosed garden where your happy hounds can play.

Take a step up to enter the cottage and let your faithful friend make his way inside. Put paws and feet up in the lounge after long walks, opening the French doors on to the garden on warm days. Find a film to enjoy on the TV/Blu-Ray DVD player, listen to music or play on the games console while your contented canine dozes. When mealtimes beckon, head through to the kitchen to prepare food for humans and hounds alike, then lay the table in the dining room, lighting the wood burner in the winter. Also downstairs is a family shower room and a utility room with washer/dryer for damp dog towels. Climb the main staircase up to a super-king-size bedroom, with TV. A second set of stairs leads up from the utility room to a twin room which in turn opens up into a bunk bedroom, with en-suite WC and fold-out extra bed for alternative sleeping arrangements. There is also a family bathroom here. Take your pup out into the garden when he awakes. Climb the stone steps up to the lawn so he can run about. There is parking for three cars at the cottage.

Grab a few dog treats and embark upon a 2.5-mile walk from the cottage to see the Trippet Stone Circle. Venture 6.5 miles to Colliford Lake, where you can stretch furry legs along the shores of the reservoir. Return from your excursions to enjoy refreshments at the village inn where four-legged guests are always welcome.

We really loved the cottage and it's location and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It felt homely and was a very much needed break away and we would love to come back in the future. The village shop was great as was the pub. And the people we met in the village were extremely welcoming & friendly - would definitely recommend!!

This lovely old cottage is exactly that, old. Its full of character and creaky floorboards. The beds are comfortable and both showers are good. If you love rustic charm in a beautiful village (with the only village green in Cornwall) next door to a pub serving cracking ale and delicious food, this is highly recommended.

This is a charming property in a fabulous, peaceful setting. We liked the pub next door as it was very sociable and pleasant, although there is a bit of expected noise from drinkers in the evening. Overall the property was really good and well equipped, although we did have some gripes about the level of cleanliness and state of repair of some itemRead mores. For example, our bed linen seemed clean, but the pillow protectors were filthy so we laundered them ourselves. The property is old and has quite a musty smell, though unlike other reviewers we found it easy to open most of the windows which helped. The dining room and lounge are good and worked well for us, and the kitchen is pleasant and very well equipped. We went in high summer, which helped a lot with getting laundry dry as there is no tumble drier, which I think could be added for convenience. We we obliged to switch on the storage heater in the utility space to help dry things on the clothes horses. It's convenient and thoughtful that stair gates are provided at the top of the stairs but they are very old and broken and not safe enough, and they need to be replaced immediately in my view. It was also poor that the caretaker could not be contacted to help with some information I wanted. These negatives are outweighed by the positives though, which are that this is a wonderful characterful property in a perfect peaceful location. Our children loved the swings on the green opposite and we all really enjoyed the village with its charm, friendliness and community vibe. Hide

Lovely cottage in a nice little village, it had everything that we needed for a comfortable stay and was good value for money.

Lovely, spacious, well equipped cottage with a super new bathroom and kitchen. Situated in a quaint village in central Cornwall making it ideal for visiting lots of places and with a lovely pub next door. The negatives were, the garden is very overgrown and neglected, none of the windows open which makes it very hot and stuffy.

This is a very spacious and comfy cottage, conveniently located between the north and south coasts of Cornwall, a short drive from attractions including Tintagel Castle, Port Isaac, The Eden Project and so on. I would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone looking to explore the eastern part of Cornwall.
