Accommodation overview: THIS GRAND FARMHOUSE IS LOCATED ON THE BREATHTAKING LIZARD PENINSULA Set within one of the country's most beautifully rugged landscapes, the Lizard Peninsula, which is home to some of the most breathtaking scenery, cliff-top walks passing old disused mine works and numerous hidden coves and the famous Helford River is just 2 miles away. Offering the best of both worlds, in this quiet farm setting, relaxation is mandatory, however when you have recharged your batteries, adventures await throughout West Cornwall. Working alongside the Countryside and Forestry Commission, the owners strive to run the farm along organic lines and in 2000 they planted 6000 new trees, installed wind turbines and created a 3 mile woodland walk around the farm. Helston, with its vast choice of pubs, shops and restaurants is just a short drive. However, if activity is what you fancy, Penzance, the area capital, offers a wide range of activities from sailing, helicopter trips, bowling, laser shooting as well as a selection of restaurants, shops and pubs. A must visit for any trip to Cornwall is Lands End, the most Westerly point of England; you cannot help but be taken back by the panoramic views. Just a short drive away is the maritime town of Falmouth, famed for its castle and naval history, its array of boutique shops and seafood restaurants. Games room: barn with a pool table and dart board shared with 1 smaller holiday cottage. This grand farmhouse offers you the chance to stay in a slice of Cornwall, offering FIVE bedrooms: 1 master double with four-poster bed and bunk beds just off, 2 twin bedrooms, and 1 unusual retreat bedroom, that is reached through the kitchen, and is on 2 levels with its own en-suite shower room offering 1 double bedroom with 2 single beds (that are reached via steep stairs); the perfect room for the older children to enjoy their own space on holiday.
