Cornish Blue Cottage is a delightful, cosy, beautifully restored detached Cornish cottage. It is the destination for perfect holidays.  The cottage is in the lovely Cornish village of Common Moor, in the heart of Bodmin Moor. Only 15 minutes walk away (5 minutes drive) is Siblyback Lake with all its sporting facilities, fishing, water ski-ing, windsurfing, trails and cafe. 

With a central location in Cornwall, Cornish Blue is less than 30 minutes drive to the South or North coasts. 11 miles from Looe on the south coast and 30 miles from north coast.  Many original features have been rescued and restored, like beamed ceilings in the lounge and bedroom and granite door lintels. Oak floors through the downstairs area are practical and stunning.

Enter through the front door to porch area and then into the kitchen/dining area. From here go through the old pine door to the gorgeous lounge or upstairs to your pretty bedroom.

The lounge is wonderfully cosy, it has a wood-burning stove with a generous store of FREE dry logs provided, (so perfect in winter too), and sumptuous sofa. French doors lead from the lounge onto the wonderful sun drenched (hopefully) and sheltered south facing patio. With windows on three walls the lounge is a superbly lit room. 

The kitchen/dining area is well equipped for self catering if you want to dine in.

Cornish Blue Cottage has double glazed windows throughout with radiators in every room so even without the fire lit you will be warm and cosy after your walk across the moors or day on the beach. 

 

Cornish Blue Cottage sleeps two people, in a queen-sized bed with pocket-sprung mattress, top quality duvet and luxury bed linen provided. The pretty,  bedroom is light and airy with exposed beams. There is a flatscreen TV with DVD player and freeview and there's also a wonderful view across farmland and the Moor. This room is cosy enough for your well deserved lie in at all times of the year. The thick hand-made curtains will keep you snug in winter and prevent the early morning sunshine from waking you in summer.

 

 

The cottage has a modern bathroom, a large bath with power shower over, plenty of hot water for a nice soak! 

The south facing patio is ideal for sun-bathing, morning coffee and barbeques. There is a rustic table and chairs, barbeque and soft sunbathing chairs in summer. The sun shines on this area from early morning until evening, this will definitely be your favourite spot!

Common Moor used to be called Pilla Moor which means Great Moor. The village developed in the early 19th Century when there was a boom in tin and copper mining in the surrounding Caradon Hills and area. 

There are miles and miles of fantastic moorland walks, fishing at Siblyback Lake, boat hire and windsurfing (including lessons) and much more.

This is the 'main' road from Common Moor to St Neot, a typical Cornish lane with hedge rows covered in wild flowers and everywhere teeming with wildlife. Seeing a deer on the moor is a real thrill.

Delightful walk to Siblyback Lake along footpaths and moorland.
