Situation

The property is situated in the very rural, small, working hamlet of Darleyford, yet only a few yards from the B3254 road. The village of Upton Cross is ¾ mile to the south with a traditional public house which also houses the village Shop, well-respected primary school, parish church, village hall, playing field and children's park and is home to the popular Sterts Arts and Environmental Centre. Situated in the Bodmin Moor AONB, there is access onto the moor with its excellent opportunities for hiking, dog walking and other outdoor activities and to the beauty spots of Cheesewring, Minions and Sharptor. Nearby, Siblyback Lake Country Park, offers a fabulous venue for all inland watersports and for those with equestrian needs, horseriding is easily accessible via local bridleways and country lanes in the area.
