Lower Treslea - Bracken Cottage

Bracken Cottage is a three-bedroom stone barn conversion on a ten-acre farm on Bodmin Moor, sleeping 6 across 1 double and 2 twin bedrooms, with 2 bathrooms. Exposed beams, slate floors, and an open fire in a stone fireplace give the interior strong original character that sits at odds with the modern amenities throughout.

Inside, the barn is equipped for a comfortable stay with a wood burner alongside the open fire, a dishwasher, washing machine, and full Wi-Fi. The accessible layout accommodates wheelchair users. A private hot tub and charcoal BBQ sit on the enclosed patio; up to 3 dogs are welcome.

The farm sits in a network of footpaths and bridleways that give walkers and riders direct access onto the open moor without needing a car. Fowey and Polperro are about 11 miles south; the Eden Project is a similar distance east. The Cardinham Woods mountain bike and walking trails are within easy reach. For coast days, Readymoney Cove near Fowey is 10.8 miles south, and the north coast beaches around Polzeath are roughly 30 minutes by car.

From £713 per night, this is one of the higher-priced properties on the moor, reflecting the hot tub, dog-friendliness, and accessible facilities.

**Best for:** Families or groups of dog owners wanting remote moorland access with good amenities and equal reach to both coasts. **Less good for:** Those on a tight budget or expecting coastal proximity.
