Sleepy Fox

Sleepy Fox is a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom stone cottage in the village of Blisland, sitting on the northern edge of Bodmin Moor. It sleeps 4 and rates 4 stars, with 61 guest reviews.

The living room centres on an open fire - the kind of feature that justifies a Moor-edge stay in autumn or spring. Outside, the enclosed garden has space for dogs to roam, and there is private parking on site. Wifi and a dishwasher are included in the equipment.

Blisland itself is a small village with the Blisland Inn facing the green - one of the few true Cornish village pubs still operating with a rotating cask ale menu. From the doorstep, Bodmin Moor opens out: the Camel Trail starts at Bodmin roughly 3.7 miles south, the Bronze Age stone circles at the Hurlers on Minions are about 6.2 miles east, and Rough Tor and Brown Willy are accessible by foot to the northwest. Tregardock Beach on the north coast is 7.3 miles away for days when the sea calls.

Suits couples or small families who want a quiet base in the moor with good walking from the door. Less good for those needing coastal proximity - the nearest beach is a 20-minute drive. Saturday changeover, dogs welcome, no hot tub.
