Daisy’s
Cottage is everything you would expect from an archetypical Cornish
character cottage. Converted from a stone barn to a high standard in 2008
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 on 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; built of solid granite with
slate flagstone floors, two huge granite fireplaces, real fires in winter
and a restaurant to the rear. The area is superb for walkers with
woodlands and moors teaming with wildlife and also ideally situated to
explore the beaches and coastline both sides of the county; the nearest
beach is Trebarwith Strand about 10 miles away. The Camel Trail starts a
mile further on from St Breward at Wenford Bridge -
11 miles of former
railway line beside the River Camel, now converted to a level cycle trail.
