Hallagenna Farmhouse dates back to 1673 and is one of the
first recorded tenanted farmhouses in Cornwall. Formerly a farm it later
changed to become a horse stud farm and riding stables. The beautiful
moor land location provided unique pony trekking over the beautiful, and
at times rugged, landscape.
Hallagenna is known locally as the home and final resting place of "Beatos"
the black stallion from the Lloyds Bank adverts. Born on the farm,
he is now buried in a quiet corner of the paddock.
ACCOMMODATION
Our cottages date back to 1673, and retain many of their
original features, such as traditional Cornish stone walls and exposed
beams.
The Cottages include, log burners, TV, Video/DVD/Freeview,
microwave, cooker and dishwasher. They can sleep four and five plus a
cot, and have two bedrooms.
They all have off road parking, patio areas to the front,
with garden furniture and your own barbeque for those meals "al fresco"!
LOCATION
The cottages are on the edge of beautiful Bodmin Moor,
so close to the Moor in fact that you could literally reach out and touch
the wild Shetland ponies grazing and watch the sheep roam!
Nearby you will find the
Camel Trail. This is a 17 mile largely traffic free cycleway which
passes through some of the most spectacular countryside in the south west.
Following the disused railway line once used by the London and South West
Railway, cyclists hug the Camel Estuary
from Padstow to Wadebridge
before joining the route through the deeply incised and beautifully wooded
Camel Valley to Bodmin. At Bodmin yet another line, one of the most historic
in the country, winds its way inland to the foot of Bodmin Moor where
it comes to an end near St. Breward, an extraordinarily pretty moorland
village and only two miles of Hallagenna Cottages.
Hallagenna Cottages are situated on a small holding, where
you will find horses grazing in the paddock or stables and chickens roaming
freely. Well behaved dogs are welcome, and will love to run on
Bodmin Moor or walk The Camel
Trail.
Only six miles away is Cardinham woods, with its designated
pedestrian nature trails that wind and explore the vast woodland. Also
within easy access lie dog friendly beaches on the North and South coast.
