About this cottage rental

Tucked away on the edge of the idyllic village of Blisland close to Bodmin Moor, Demelza Cottage is a characterful one-bedroom retreat that perfectly blends rustic charm with modern comfort. This delightful hideaway is ideal for couples looking to unwind and explore the Cornish countryside.



Step into the inviting lounge, where original slate flooring, and a contemporary wood-burning stove create a warm and cosy atmosphere. A comfortable sofa, soft lighting, and tasteful coastal artwork add to the serene and stylish feel.



The adjoining kitchen is charmingly appointed with classic country charm. It’s fully equipped with a modern electric cooker, toaster, kettle, and ample cooking utensils – perfect for preparing a leisurely breakfast or a romantic dinner after a day out walking on the moor or exploring the Cornish coast.



Upstairs, the tranquil double bedroom boasts soft linens and a traditional wooden bed frame. The room is bathed in natural light from the window, which frames views of the surrounding countryside. Thoughtful touches like bedside lamps and botanical prints create a calming, restful space.



The cottage is ideally placed for walkers and cyclists on the Camel Trail, with the closest entry point at Tresarrett nearby. The nearest village is Blisland, complete with a traditional inn, village shop, post office, community café and ancient church all situated around a picturesque village green. The Church dedicated to St Protus and St Hyacinth was a favourite of Sir John Betjeman CBE, Poet Laureate. Walkers can make their way up onto nearby Bodmin Moor to explore sites such as Jubilee Rock, Alex Tor or Roughter.



Port Isaac is a beautiful town famed for the TV series Doc Martin. Padstow is also within easy reach, as are other great places to visit including the surfing beach at Polzeath, the shopping town of Wadebridge, the Eden Project, cycling trails at Cardinham Woods, and many fabulous other beaches such as Trebarwith Strand and Bedruthan Steps. The Grade II-listed property Pencarrow House offers a fun, dog-friendly day out, while the National Trust property Lanhydrock is also close by. The immersive historical attraction The Story of Emily and the Cornish hedge labyrinth Kerdroya are also within travelling distance.



Bike storage is available at this property.

From the moment we arrived, it felt like a true home away from home. The cottage itself is incredibly cosy, beautifully kept, and full of character, with a lovely log burner that made the evenings especially warm and relaxing. Nestled within a picturesque village, the setting couldn’t have been more perfect. It was peaceful and quiet, ideal for a romantic getaway, yet surrounded by friendly locals who made us feel very welcome. The atmosphere of the village added so much to the experience — quaint, scenic, and full of charm. Our host was exceptionally welcoming and thoughtful, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It’s clear a lot of care goes into making guests feel at ease. If you’re looking for a cosy, romantic retreat in a beautiful Cornish village, this cottage is an absolute gem. We left feeling refreshed, relaxed, and already planning our return.

We loved our stay there. The cottage is small but perfectly formed. A delightful little conversion in an idyllic location. The added touches of a complimentary bottle of fizz (& mini chocolate Easter eggs), milk, tea & coffee were an added bonus. A plentiful supply of logs etc for the wood burner was also much appreciated (though we had fabulous weather & only used it once). We loved it….we’ll be back!

Beautiful little one bed cottage, with log burner and stunning views. Perfect for a pre Christmas get away. The cottage was clean and the host really thought of everything thank you. It had everything you need even a little chocolate and prosecco welcome gift to milk in the fridge and washing machine tablets. They made the stay feel like a home from home thank you so much. Loved it.
