Description from owner

Description

Mowhay Cottage, one of seven cottages on site, was originally a tractor shed converted into a holiday cottage in 2000. The cottage is a unique shape with two pitched roof's and a roundhouse, and occupies a prominent position at East Rose with panoramic views of the moor from the dining area.

All on one level, there is one double bedroom with wet room/shower room en-suite, one twin bedroom (or a zip and linked king bed), a bathroom with over head shower and an open plan kitchen/lounge with dining area. The cottage has gas central heating making it warm and cosy all year round.

Our holiday cottages have been converted from original farm buildings and offer plenty of character including 3 foot thick stone walls, vaulted roofs and exposed timbers. Sleeping between two and six, our cottages are tastefully furnished and offer all the home comforts you could need.

Getting around

East Rose is located in a rural setting on Bodmin Moor. A car is essential to get around to see the sights. St Breward is the closest village, a leisurely 35 minute walk. The closest train station is Bodmin Parkway (located out of Bodmin town itself), and cars can be hired from Bodmin town. You can arrange for a taxi to collect you from the station to take to you the town centre. If you are feeling energetic, you can bring your bike and cycle around the moors (on the roads). This will be a great way to see the sights and nature of the moors at close hand. The Camel Trail (cycle route from Wenford Bridge to Padstow) is also only a few miles from East Rose, and definitely worth a visit.

Interaction with guest

We live on site at East Rose with our three children, so one of us is usually on hand if you have any queries during your stay. On arrival days, we encourage a self check in, and will ensure you have been emailed directions to the cottage prior to your arrival. We will however be onsite in the main white house if you require a socially distanced check in. Please do not hesitate to come and ring the door bell. If you think you will arrive after 5pm we ask if you can let us know so we can make arrangements for your key collection.
