  • "Nice beautiful and well decorated cottage, well equipped and very comfortable, there was plenty of space in the house for me my wife & 3 kids."

    We enjoyed relaxing in the patio while the kids played in the garden. Local shops few minutes from the cottage also Launceston Castle is just around the corner. We enjoyed our stay in this quiet town.

The town of Launceston, situated on the Devon and Cornwall border, has wonderful architecture, including some fine Georgian buildings in the central square, and is dominated by the ruins of a Norman castle sitting high above the town. You can take a stroll to the Dog friendly Willow Tree Cafe and Woodland Walk or visit the steam train from Launceston through the beautiful Kensey Valley on a 5-mile round trip. Launceston is within driving distance of the seaside resorts of Bude and Padstow to the north, and Plymouth to the south, as well as the stunning Bodmin Moor and Dartmoor. A superb base for exploring Cornwall and Devon.
