The little cottage was easy to find and the instructions to get in via a key safe were very clear. An extremely well equipped and comfortable cottage. The big bonus was the little seating area outside where we had breakfast. We met the friendly...

Nadia Sangra-Jones and my springer spaniel Jess - Self Catering Cottage
Rose View SELF-CATERING COTTAGE AT PRIORY COTTAGE BODMIN CORNWALL - The house was built in the 1800's, and boasts a quiet setting within its own gardens, less than 5 mins walk to Bodmin Town Centre amenities, and direct road routes to attractions and places to visit within the local area and Cornwall. The cottage has recently been renovated to offer a self-catering cottage apartment in the original part of the house, and two letting rooms without cooking facilities. I have retained many of its characterful features such as wooden beams, slate fire places and walls. Priory Cottage now offers bright and contemporary feel throughout the cottage offering spacious and light filled bedrooms, the self catering cottage offers accommodation for 2 adults and 1 child, Dining and Reception room, kitchen and wet room, plus separate entrance, patio, and off street parking. The letting rooms offer accommodation with private en-suite shower rooms for 2 adults, one with King size bed, the other a double plus both offer comfortable seating areas, with tv, free WiFi, hot drink facilities and views of the South and South West facing garden. I welcome you to come and visit and enjoy this beautiful and comfortable house.
I bought Priory Cottage and moved to Cornwall during April 2017. I have a grown up son, who works as a Watersports Instructor I have recently adopted a English Springer Spaniel puppy, called Jessie and look forward to exploring and discovering new walks, in this beautiful County. Gardening is also a favourite hobby and I am finding developing and maintaining the gardens here great exercise and enjoyable. I grew up in Isles of Scilly, where my parents still live, so I am still a frequent traveller via Newquay Airport. I moved to Hampshire in 1987 and then to Hertfordshire in 1999. Trained as a secretary I worked in various office, sales and accounts departments until 2000, when I trained as a Nursery Nurse in Childcare and Education. I set up my own Childcare setting achieving Outstanding grading and caring for over 40 children during the past 18 years. In 2016, I decided it was time a change my occupation, I purchased Priory Cottage in April 2017 and set up as a small Bed & Breakfast, running this for 3 years. This last winter I have changed the house to self catering cottage apartment, and two letting rooms, due to a change in my personal circumstances.
From Priory Cottage a very short walk (5mins) down Rhind Street to Bodmin high street, makes popping out for a morning paper or evening meal makes your stay in Bodmin very central and close to amenities. Taking a walk to Bodmin Shire House or Museum (5mins), to the Steam Train Station or Mitlitary Museum, the Camel Trail or Bodmin Jail (15mins). I have found there is a cut through from Rhind Street through to Church Street, which leads to a walk through the church yard and Priory Park (areas of historical interest). At the top of Rhind Street there is the grave yard with a picturesque walk around its edge and historical buildings. I love that there are easily accessible walking and cycling routes from my door such as Dunmere Woods and The Camel Trail, Cardenham Woods and Llanhydrock Estate. Short and direct driving routes to Cornish attractions such as Eden Project, Charlestown and the South Coast footpaths, beaches and coves. Or vibrant Wadebridge and Padstow, Trebarwith Strand, Port Issac, Polzeath for great surf all super places to visit and explore. There are places to eat based in Bodmin such as Wetherspoons, Cafe's and Public Houses, Restaurants and takeaway
