Welcome to Demelza Cottage
Country smallholding location, great views, peace and quiet
The perfect location for the active traveller
Demelza Cottage is a 19th-century farmhouse providing three different types of accommodation: bed and breakfast for one or two people; a self-catering apartment for up to four people; and a luxury shepherd's hut for one or two people. It is conveniently situated for the Saints Way, The Cornish Celtic Way, The South West Coast Path, and Bodmin Moor.
It offers peace and seclusion within the Cornish countryside with far-reaching views and a warm welcome from the host as well as all the lovely animals that live on the farmstay. We moved here in 2014 for the good life with the aim of being as self-sufficient as possible. We still have to work for a living, but the satisfaction of producing home-grown food is immeasurable. The B&B is where a lot of it comes together, with eggs from the ducks and chickens and homemade jams.
Central for tourist attractions
Close by, you can enjoy beaches and popular tourist attractions. Newquay, Padstow, The Eden Project, Bodmin Jail, and Bodmin Moor are all within easy reach. St Ives, Lands End, The Minack Theatre, Porthcurno, and St Michael's Mount are a little further, but all are easy to get to for a good day of exploring. Alternatively, use us as your mainland base before flying to the Isles of Scilly from Cornwall Airport Newquay, only 10 miles away.
