Moorland Breeze

Moorland Breeze is a newly renovated 1950s Chalet designed as the perfect getaway for two. Situated within a private 17-acre equestrian smallholding in a secluded area, the Chalet has breathtaking views across the Cornish countryside and the spectacular Bodmin moor.

Moorland Breeze forms part of Poldue Farm, which dates back to the 12th Century and was built at a similar time to the village church.

Moorland Breeze is set within our family-run smallholding, and there are likely to be horses and other animals around, such as Ronnie and Reggie, our naughty runner ducks who are amusing to watch; we kindly ask you to respect the animals' space.

We are set down a long private drive accessed via two wooden gates that bring you into our yard; there is a designated parking area with ample room next to the chalet.

The rental includes the chalet accommodation, a large enclosed garden, and a private parking area. Regrettably, you cannot roam over our 17 acres for safety reasons due to livestock, but you can enjoy watching them as the chalet and garden look out over the grounds, and the horses sometimes come and stand near your garden fence!

Located in an area of outstanding natural beauty and only a short distance from the picturesque village of Blisland, the chalet is an ideal spot to explore the beautiful scenery. Many rural and coastal walks are close to the area, which offers a fabulous opportunity to glimpse Cornwall's abundant birds and wildlife. Several great pubs and restaurants are nearby to try out in and around North Cornwall.

We are situated down a private gated drive on the edge of open moorland where cattle, sheep and horses roam freely.

Wake up to the sound of birdsong, spot wildlife, explore cycle and walking trails from your doorstep, and then return home to the privacy and comfort of your spacious rural retreat.

Enjoy a trip down to the Camel Trail with over 19 miles of off-road track, eventually ending in Padstow, a beautiful harbour with an incredible variety of shops and restaurants. Visit the quaint village of Blisland with a unique local pub and its beautiful 12th-century church; Blisland church is the only one in the UK devoted to a pair of saints, St Protus and St Hyacinth. Sir John Betjeman has written and spoken about Blisland Church on several occasions:

"Of all the country churches of the west I have seen, I think that Blisland is the most beautiful.” These words have resonated with many of the visitors who have come to see the church

Kitchen

rustle up a treat

The kitchen, situated next to the sitting room, is fully equipped with everything you'll need to rustle up feasts, whether it's the freshest seafood picked up from Padstow or a hoard of goodies from a farm shop. There is an electric cooker with a double oven and ceramic hob, a fridge with a freezer compartment, a microwave, kettle and toaster.

The dining table can be found in the spacious summer room, offering spectacular countryside views and a plethora of wildlife. Whatever time of day, the views are sublime, whether it's the palest pink sky of dawn, the bright sunshine of midday or the inky night sky, dotted with stars in an unpolluted night sky. This is a beautiful spot for meals; or afternoon tea, cream tea is a must while in Cornwall; obviously, it's jam first!

Living room

snuggle up

Head inside the house where two steps lead to a bright, cosy sitting room, a sizeable sumptuous sofa awaits to relieve tired legs after a busy day walking the coastal path or time on the beach. While relaxing on the sofa, you can enjoy the view of the countryside. There is a cosy, flickering wood burner that's a wonderful sight, whatever time of year, inviting you to snuggle up, take off your shoes and relax with a good book or a glass of something special. Smart TV if you need a little entertainment.

Bedroom & Bathroom

Each bedside cabinet has a light and phone charging point.

With stunning views over the surrounding countryside, this is an oh-so-romantic bolthole for those seeking their own private space.

Sunroom

And relax

Set on seventeen acres of its own, this stunning home is a retreat in every sense. To the front of the chalet is a glass-fronted sunroom with a table and chairs for romantic dining or simply sitting back with a coffee to enjoy the view, a perfect spot for wrapping up in blankets while star gazing or watching the sunset over the valley. Beyond the garden are fields where you'll see our horses and pet sheep wandering, and if you are lucky, you may spot the herd of wild deer that often graze in our lower sheltered fields.
