  • "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Little Trespettigue."

    Our hosts, Simon and Beverly greeted us upon arrival and instantly made us feel very welcome. The cottage is very comfortable, well-equipped and in a beautiful location. Having the Halvana Plantation on the doorstep was fanatastic for daily walks with the dogs. Whilst we had excellent weather, the nights were very cold and Simon provided a plentiful supply of wood for the stove each day, ensuring that the cottage was always warm and cosy for us and the dogs. The central location on Bodmin Moor proved excellent for daily trips in all directions, with coastal towns like Boscastle being little more than half an hour's drive. We will definitely be returning soon. Susie, Jim, Barney and Nuala.

    We are both pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and hopefully we will see you again. Property Owner

Where you’ll be staying

ALTARNUN

Launceston 8 miles; Boscastle 14 miles; Port Isaac 18 miles.

A very pretty village on the edge of Bodmin Moor, located close to the A30, making it the perfect base from which to tour the many visitor attractions within easy reach. Altarnun itself boasts quaint stone cottages, a stream running through the village, a lovely old church, and a traditional country pub. After a long day exploring the stunning countryside around Bodmin Moor this is an ideal place in which to unwind. Explore four unique villages, Boscastle, Tintagel, Port Isaac and Crackington Haven, each situated along the dramatic unspoiled coastline of North Cornwall. Port Isaac, a filming location in Doc Martin, is a busy port where you can still watch the fishermen hard at work. Walking and cycling are popular activities in this area and there are beautiful churches and historic buildings to discover. Venture a little further afield and walk the high tors of Bodmin Moor, surf the waves of the North Cornish coast, sample the delights of the Eden Project or take a cruise from Truro down the misty reaches of the River Fal to Falmouth. There's something for everyone nearby, from moors and river valleys to beaches and harbours, stately homes and museums to potteries and galleries.
