The Traditional Cornish Holiday Cottages currently have stopped advertising on the site, although they still host their website - www.hallagennacottages.co.uk- with the company. Hallagenna Cottages set on a former working farm on the edge of open moor land in a designated 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty'. Centrally located in a peaceful setting yet with easy access to the A30, making it ideal for exploring Cornwall. For details telephone Tel: 01208 851 550
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. He is now buried
in a quiet corner of the paddock.
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 rabbits living naturally in the fields. 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.
