The cottages are very close to Carnglaze Caverns, a former slate mine that’s now open for visitors to explore and which also hosts live music events throughout the year. Good road links mean that a range of other attractions are within easy reach, including St Michael’s Mount and the Bodmin and Wenford Railway.

There are some excellent cycle trails in the area, with Cardinham Woods nearby and the Camel Trail not too much further. For walkers, there’s a huge range of popular routes - for those who like long distances, the 60-mile Copper Trail is a great way to see the sights Bodmin Moor has to offer.
