Luxury self catering holiday accommodation in Cornwall

A luxury farmhouse high on Cornwall's magnificent Bodmin Moor, with wide open views over the valleys and peaks to the Camel Estuary and the sea beyond. This is Cornwall at its most inspirational, whether at the sacred sites, strolling through the unique walking country, or gazing out from the comfort of the roll-top bath in this truly special home.

Irish Farm is a traditional Victorian Farmhouse offering luxurious self catering accommodation situated in its' own 4 acres of land and gardens. Filled with beautiful furnishings, and modern comforts Irish Farm encapsulates character and charm in abundance.

The North coast beaches of Rock Polzeath and Daymer Bay together with Padstow, Rick Stein, and the Camel trail are all within easy reach. The Eden Project is only approx ½ hr drive as are Lost Gardens of Heligan and North Cornwall coast. We can also accommodate your horses if need be.

The wooded Camel Valley flows below whilst nearby are Brown Willy and Roughtor the two highest peaks in Cornwall. Irish Farm has direct access onto the fabulous spaces of Bodmin Moor and with no near neighbours, and far reaching views to the Camel Estuary and the sea beyond, Irish is truly a place for you to unwind and relax in total comfort and tranquility.

Within the wilderness of the Moor there lies an incredible number of Neolithic sites, holy wells and pools. One such holy well, whose waters are said to have curative powers, can be found nearby. The walking country is magical with wild ponies, buzzards and sparkling streams and rivers. This is truly the heart of Cornwall, the land of the Celts, probably the least frequented and not to be overlooked.
