Dick Cottage

Dick Cottage is a barn conversion near Blisland, a moorland village on the western edge of Bodmin Moor. The cottage sleeps 4 in 2 bedrooms and welcomes dogs (with seasonal restrictions in July and August).

The interior is open-plan, with a seating area, kitchen, and dining space on one level. The kitchen has a microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine. A bathroom with bath and shower over serves both bedrooms - a double and a twin. A tumble dryer and WiFi are included.

Outside, the cottage has a BBQ and off-road parking for 2 cars. A shared EV charging point is available on-site. The nearest pub is less than a mile away - the Blisland Inn, a multi-award-winning CAMRA pub with regularly changing Cornish ales, sits on the village green.

Blisland is one of the few Cornish villages built around a traditional green, with granite cottages and a Norman church. Bodmin Moor's open heathland starts immediately east of the village, with walking routes toward Brown Willy (1,378 feet), Cornwall's highest point. Port Gaverne Beach, a sheltered cove near Port Isaac with calm water for swimming and kayaking, is 7.5 miles away. Tregardock Beach, a remote sandy beach with powerful surf, is 7.6 miles. The Camel Trail can be accessed at Wenfordbridge, about 2 miles north.

Nearby: Port Gaverne Beach (7.5 miles) and Tregardock Beach (7.5 miles). See our Blisland guide for more beaches and walks in the area.

Best for walkers based on Bodmin Moor wanting EV charging and a garden, given the on-site charging point and nearby heathland routes to Brown Willy. Less good for a beach-focused stay, since the nearest coast is over 7 miles away, or for dog owners visiting in July and August, when restrictions apply.
