Bocaddon Holiday Cottages

     

Peacefully nestling in the centre of Bocaddon Farm, we invite you to share this beautiful part of South East Cornwall with us.

There are three cottages converted from the original stone farm buildings. These have been superbly constructed, with the added advantage of being equipped to high standards for the disabled visitors, very wheelchair friendly.

Our first conversion, "Katies", was completed in 1998, and visitors have "queued" to return, thus our two new cottages opened in 2001. The cottages are also very wheelchair friendly.

We conform to English Tourism Council with four star rating, offering superior comforts for a memorable holiday.

Public transport connections and mini supermarket and the Post Office are at Pelynt, 2 miles away. Lanreath village boasts a large pub that is within walking distance!

Update 2007: A new indoor heated swimming pool has now been added, with a heated Jaccuzi.

Katie's Cottage

A stone barn conversion. It has a fully equipped kitchen/living area, including electric cooker, fridge/freezer, microwave, washing machine, and tumble drier, TV and video plus telephone. There is a downstairs double bedroom, and upstairs an open plan twin room vanity unit, which has lovely views of the Cornish countryside. The bathroom is especially designed to fit the needs of everybody, including wheelchair users, the bath having a shower attachment, also a separate overhead shower unit with seat if needed, and WC. Also a separate WC room. All rooms have central heating radiators individually operated. All doors are wide for wheelchair access and all floors are carpeted. A large patio and lawn area are available, with barbecue if required.

The bathrooms are very roomy, and are designed to give complete comfort and accessability for our disabled visitors. Included are roll-in showers with shower seats, baths, and toilets with hand rails. A hoist is available on request.

Bramble Byre

Bramble Byre opened to its first visitors on July 14th 2001. This barn conversion was the original cow shed, and to our surprise, the roof beams were in such good order that we have retained them as a feature of the building. The accomodation, all ground floor, comprises two bedrooms, en suite, one double, the other twin. The kitchen/sitting room has electric cooker, fridge/freezer, microwave, washing machine, and tumble drier, TV and video plus telephone.

All rooms have central heating radiators individually operated. All floors are completely level, allowing easy wheelchair access.

The bathrooms are very roomy, and are designed to give complete comfort and accessability for our disabled visitors. Included are roll-in showers with shower seats, baths, and toilets with hand rails. A hoist is available on request.

The cottage has its own patio and BBQ.

Dairy Dell

Dairy Dell opened on the 21st of July 2001. This end of the barn conversion was the dairy, and the dell at the bottom of the gardens, was where the milk was cooled in churns in the running water of the natural springs that rise there. The accomodation is very similar to Bramble Byre, with two bedrooms en suite, but both these rooms are twins.

The bathrooms are very roomy, and are designed to give complete comfort and accessability for our disabled visitors. Included are roll-in showers with shower seats, baths, and toilets with hand rails. A hoist is available on request.
