The Shippon at Lestitha

Enjoy a Cornwall retreat for two at The Shippon at Lestitha. Located on the edge of Bodmin Moor, the converted barn offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside from your own private hot tub.

All on one level, the Shippon is designed to take in the extensive views over the rolling countryside. The open plan space is a perfect for relaxing at the end of a busy day exploring, why not light the wood burner, or cosy up on the sofa with Freeview TV and DVD player. You’ll find a fully fitted kitchen, with all amenities needed for a self-catering stay including electric oven, electric hob, microwave, fridge and dishwasher. Enjoy a true Cornish cream tea provided on arrival.

Leading from the kitchen area is the bedroom with comfortable king size bed and modern en-suite bathroom with bath and separate shower.

Take a dip in the hot tub, and delight in views of the rolling countryside. At night Bodmin Moor has been designated an International Dark Sky Landscape, where the sky is clear of artificial light and an amazing sight, perfect for stargazers and those with telescopes.

Lestitha Farm is located on the edge of Bodmin Moor, conveniently just 5 minutes’ drive off the main A38 dual carriageway at Liskeard. The area has a wealth of ancient archaeological sites dating from the early bronze age onwards, popular with walkers and hikers. The coastal town of Looe just 20 minutes away with nearby beaches, independent stores, and plentiful ice cream shops! For four legged friends, the walking around Bodmin Moor is just superb!

- This home is located all on the ground floor with plenty of space. The barn has extra wide internal doors (2ft 9). For wheelchair users the washbasin in the bathroom is hung off the wall.
- Guests have use of the owner’s washer and dryer on request.
- Up to two dogs are welcome but must be kept on leads at all times (small holding).
- Travel cot and highchair available on request.
- Private parking included for two vehicles.
