The Granary

The Granary is a 2-bedroom barn conversion at Calleynough Farm in Helland, a hamlet north of Bodmin, sleeping 4 with 2 bathrooms. Being part of a small farm conversion means the cottage shares communal gardens with neighbouring properties - more space than a typical rural let - while enclosed parking keeps things practical.

Each bedroom has its own bathroom, which makes it well-suited for two couples sharing. The cottage includes a washing machine and WiFi. Central heating keeps it warm year-round.

Bodmin is a 10-minute drive south and gives access to the full range of services: shops, the Bodmin Railway, and Bodmin Jail - the 18th-century prison now open daily as a heritage attraction, with hours that change by season. The Camel Trail starts in Bodmin and runs 11.5 miles on a flat, disused railway line to Padstow on the north coast - bike hire is available at multiple points. Lanhydrock House, a National Trust estate on 890 acres, sits 2.5 miles south-east of the town. The nearest beach is Port Gaverne, around 14 miles north near Port Isaac.

**Best for:** Two couples or a family who want a rural base for exploring Bodmin Moor, the Camel Trail, and north Cornwall. The en-suite layout suits pairs travelling together.

**Less good for:** Beach holidays - the coast is a 30-minute drive in any direction.
