One of Bodmin Moor's nicest communities, St Neot is located in the protected St Neot river valley on the southern edge of the moor in south-east Cornwall. The village benefits from the temperate Cornish climate and a strong sense of community. The village features a shop, a pub, and the Door Step Green, a garden established by the locals that is a lovely, tranquil area to unwind close to the church, which is well-known for its mediaeval stained glass windows and the neighbouring Holy Well. The Carnglaze Caverns are a fantastic tourist attraction that is open all year round and has three enormous caverns with a stunning subterranean lake in 6.5 acres of woodlands with fairy glen and picnic areas. They were created as a result of slate quarrying and mining in the 18th and 19th centuries. There are many excellent and interesting treks in the area, such as the "Two Valleys Stroll," which follows a portion of the Fowey River before passing through farms, open moors, and forest. It's also a necessity to take a walk to the magnificent Golitha Falls. On Bodmin Moor, numerous archaeological artefacts have been discovered, and St Neot is close to both the renowned Jamaica Inn and the mystique of Dozmary Pool, where King Arthur's sword Excalibur is said to be hidden. It takes 30 minutes to get to the north and south Cornish coasts, where you can engage in almost any kind of beach activity or water sport. Two miles away, Siblyback Lake, and five miles away, Colliford Lake, are further points of interest. Siblyback Lake is a great place to go sailing, windsurfing, and canoeing. You can also go fishing for the day at Colliford Lake.

The welcome pack and wood for the fire were welcome touches. The kitchen was well supplied with cleaning products, tea, coffee, oil, salt and pepper. Any questions I had during my stay were answered promptly. The WiFi was great and allowed me to work. I used Treveddoe Farm instead of the postcode which took my straight there.

We booked Barley Crush for a quiet getaway with our 2 dogs. We were not disappointed. The barn conversion was beautiful both inside and out, renovated to a high standard but kept beautifully traditional. The furnishings are good quality, tasteful and above all else very comfortable. The accommodation was surprisingly spacious, the pictures do not do it justice. It was warm and toasty on arrival, plentiful hot water and free logs for the woodburner. The kitchen is well eauipped. There is everything you could possibly want or need for a home from home stay. Many properties âallowâ dogs but few offer the welcome that this one does, towels, bowls, and even a lovely comfy dog bed provided!! The girls were delighted. The outside space is secure for all but the most determined escapees, pretty but natural and a wonderful place to sit with a morning coffee whilst listening to the birdsong, or with an evening glass of wine watching the sunset, and if you are lucky enough to have clear skies the stars are abundant and bright. Claudia was lovely to chat to, not at all intrusive, and lives nearby should you need anything. We and our dogs enjoyed walks directly from the door though fields and ancient woodland, along the river and up over the beautiful rugged Bodmin moor. If you are looking for a peaceful tranquil haven that is right off the beaten track but within easy driving distance of the beaches and busier attractions that this amazing county has to offer, you will love Barley Crush. We have stayed in many locations on and around Bodmin moor, and this is one of our favourites. We will definitely be back.
