The Wagon House

About this property

Launceston 4.7 miles. Tucked away in the Cornish countryside in Lezant near Launceston is The Wagon House. This wonderful, dog-friendly holiday home welcomes four guests in two well-appointed bedrooms and benefits from a characterful patio with furniture and access to the surrounding lake fields with picnic bench and barbecue, perfect for a family getaway. Cross the threshold to unwind in front of the Smart TV while the designated chef of the group whips up a tasty meal in the fully-equipped kitchen. Dine together at the table or step outside to fire up the barbecue and indulge in an alfresco affair as the sun begins to set over Cornwall. When stars fill the sky, head inside to wash off the day in the sleek bathroom before catching your rest in either the king or twin bedrooms, the single beds are zip and link so they can be made into a king bed on request. The Wagon House boasts a wonderful, rural location on a working farm where guests may be able to feed the animal, but local amenities can be found a short drive away in Launceston. Find a variety of stores here to help ease your self-catered stay as well as pubs including The Westgate Inn and the Launceston Arms where you can savour traditional pub fare. There are also ruins of the imposing 13th century Launceston Castle where you can lose yourself in the past; continue your journey into the past at Lydford Castle and Saxon town on the edge of Dartmoor National Park or Penhallam Manor which you can traverse with your beloved canine companion. The nearby Dartmoor National Park is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts thanks to the myriad of walking, hiking and cycling trails woven through its 954 square kilometres; there are also opportunities for horse riding and rock climbing offering breath-taking views across the countryside as well as a charming zoo. Discover the wonders of Cornwall at The Wagon House.

Launceston, on the border between Devon and Cornwall, is home to some beautiful Georgian buildings in its town square and the crumbling remains of a Norman castle perched on a hill above. The Willow Tree Cafe and Woodland Walk are dog-friendly attractions, and the steam train from Launceston travels through the scenic Kensey Valley on a 5-mile round trip. In addition to the beautiful Bodmin Moor and Dartmoor, the seaside towns of Bude and Padstow to the north and Plymouth to the south are easily accessible from Launceston via car. Ideally situated for day trips to Devon and Cornwall.
