Badgers Holiday Cottages offer you the opportunity to stay in one of three beautiful 4 Star Gold Award, traditional English holiday cottages in a stunning part of South East Cornwall.
Whether you are seeking historical sightseeing, watersports or want to enjoy the lovely countryside, Badgers Sett Holiday Cottages provide the perfect retreat for a holiday.
Surrounded by some of the most attractive countryside in the county which is scattered with an array of interesting historical sites and places of interest (including nearby King Donierts Stone, Trethevy Quoit and a number of medieval settlements), you certainly wont be short of things to do!
The holiday cottages have been converted from barns dating back to 1640 and each one has been converted to a very high standard with all the modern conveniences you would expect from a 4 Star Gold Award cottage. Along with the owners house, the cottages nestle on a south facing hillside and are set within two acres of grounds. They are located ten miles north of Looe on the South East of Bodmin Moor, making them ideally situated for exploring Cornwall’s rugged Atlantic coastline, the more gentle southern shores, local gardens, the Eden Project, theatre and historic monuments.
Surrounded by varied and beautiful walking countryside, there are plenty of opportunities to explore this beautiful area by foot. The ‘Two Valleys Walk’ is adjacent to the cottages and follows part of the Fowey River, open moors, farmland and forest. Golitha Falls walk is also just one mile away and there are many other lovely coastal and countryside walks within easy distance where you can take in the local wildlife.
Practically all types of water-sports are available in the area. Sailing, windsurfing and canoeing can be enjoyed at Sibleyback lake (two miles away) and Colliford Lake (five miles away) and the south and Atlantic coastlines are twenty five to fifty minutes by car.
For those who enjoy golf, there are at least eight courses within a twenty mile radius of the cottages including St. Mellion, a challenging course designed by Jack Nicklaus.
There are several historical buildings within the near locality, along with beautiful gardens, including the National Trust property Lanhydrock House - a beautiful manor house (ten miles away), The Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden Project (35 minute drive from cottages).

As soon as we saw the immaculately kept gardens and then walked into the beautiful Rosemary Cottage we knew we had made the right choice with Badgers Sett. Phil & Allison have done a superb job of making the cottages comfortable and welcoming with the little extras like the homemade cream teas that make you feel right at home. The cottages are ideally located to explore many parts of Cornwall and Phil & Allison are always on hand to offer ideas and advise on where to go. We've been 3 times now and hope to make many more visits in the years to come.ý
