Small Barn

Small Barn is a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom converted barn at Henwood Barns near Upton Cross on the southeastern edge of Bodmin Moor, sleeping 4.

The open-plan ground floor runs kitchen and living space together, with an open fire as the main focal point for evenings. Garden views look out across countryside rather than a managed lawn. Parking, wifi and a washing machine are included. Charging an electric vehicle at the property is not possible.

Upton Cross is a quiet moorland village with the Caradon Hill transmitter visible on the skyline to the north. Minions, the highest village in Cornwall at around 270m, is a couple of miles away, with the Hurlers stone circles and Cheesewring granite tor accessible on foot from the village. The Liskeard to Looe branch railway runs from Liskeard, roughly 5 miles south.

For coast, Plaidy Beach near Looe is 12.1 miles away - a drive of about 25 minutes. Downderry and East Looe Beach are at similar distances. This is not a beachside property: the appeal is the moor and the footpaths.

Good for couples or dog walkers who want a quiet countryside base with good walking from the door. Not great for guests who expect sea proximity - the coast is at least a 25-minute drive. Friday changeover, dogs welcome.
