Bellasize Farm is situated in the beautiful Glynn Valley between Liskeard and Bodmin at Twowatersfoot on The river Fowey (which is a Cornish word for the meeting of two rivers).
Located off the A38, set back off a farm lane this is a very peaceful place to stay and an ideal place to not only use as a base for touring this lovely area but also to escape the pressures of every day life.
Children can play in the meadow with swings, trampoline, climbing frame, ball games (football, swingball, cricket etc) and there is also indoor table tennis and table football.
There is plenty of parking for five cars and the garden is laid down to lawn with access to the river Fowey where you can relax and watch the wild life or walk the dog. Alternatively, enjoy fishing for Salmon and Brown Trout during the fishing season (April to December - with a license that the owner can arrange for you). The Halfway House pub is about a mile away in the car and offers food and ale, along with welcoming dogs.
Bellasize Farm is in a very convenient central location for exploring the whole of the county of Cornwall, along with its wonderful beaches, pretty fishing harbours, breathtaking walks (both inland and around the coast), country houses/gardens and numerous places of interest including:
Bodmin Moor and Siblyback lake.
Walks on the moors where you can see the beautiful scenery and feel the history of people living and working there long ago.
Bodmin Jail - visit the creepy dungeons and listen to the stories of former prisoners and their tortures, then have a nice meal in the jail restaurant.
A trip to Cornwall would not be complete without visiting the Eden Project where you will travel through the different climates or come later in the year and enjoy ice-skating.
Lanhdydrock House for an enjoyable walk around one of the oldest houses in Cornwall and roam the lovely gardens.
Carnglaze Caverns where you can visit the old slate mine and go down and see the under ground lake. Here you go back in time and can listen to the stories of the people who worked there.
St Mellion Golf Course where the English Golf Championship is to be held in 2011.
Or simply visit the lovely beaches and fishing villages that are all within easy traveling distance away.
