Polwrath Granary (1032)

Taste of the Westcountry Farm Shop (.6 miles)

St Cleer (.8 miles)
High on Bodmin Moor, St Cleer is set amid some of Cornwall’s most dramatic countryside. Step onto the moor itself and the views in every direction, across bracken and gorse clad hills with the ruins of old mining wheal houses dotted about, are glorious. Walking here you’ll share the landscape with wild ponies and a teeming population of moorland birds but it is the overwhelming sense of peace that brings ramblers back again and again.

Purely Cornish Farmshop (.8 miles)
The Purely Cornish Farmshop specialises in stocking local Cornish produce not sold in supermarkets. In 2007 they were awarded Silver by Taste of the West for best local retail outlet in Cornwall. You can order a great range of wonderful festive hampers, feel free to telephone with any special requirements and they will be happy to accommodate.

Hurlers Halt (1.3 miles)
The highest cafe in Cornwall, slap bang in the middle of Bodmin Moor.

Siblyback Lake (1.3 miles)
Sailing, windsurfing and canoeing on a big expanse of mercifully calm water.

The Hurlers and The Cheesewring (1.3 miles)
Take the opportunity of staying in this area to explore Bodmin Moor - a bleak wilderness quite unlike the traditional expectation of landscape in the West Country. The moor has many stone circles and standing stones, of which The Hurlers and The Cheesewring are two of the best known. If you start at Minions, the highest village in Cornwall, just outside Liskeard, The Hurlers, just a short distance, are 3 Bronze Age stone circles dating back to around 1500 BC. The Cheesewring is so called because of its shape and is an amazing rock formation created by glaciation and weathering over thousands of years approximately a mile across the moor. A climb to the top provides a breathtaking view into Devon in one direction and far into Cornwall in the other. As a reward, why not have a cream tea back in The Hurlers Halt in Minions, known as the highest cafe in Cornwall?
