Locally there is lots to do, with sandy beaches, the moors, coastal path walks and much more all within a short drive. You can also purchase discounted tickets for the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Dogs are also very welcome. Your garden is securely fenced and there are plenty of walks straight from your front door (and a hose pipe for washing them down if needed!). There is free roaming poultry at the farm so your dog needs to be kept under control around these and if you allow your dog on your bed, please bring blankets to protect the bed linen. We would prefer you do not leave your dog in the property un-attended for long periods (many dogs find this quite stressful when away from their home, especially if the noises from the wildlife and poultry are new to them). If you plan excursions where it would be easier not to take the dog, there is doggy day care available in the village (with Val Brown at Grove Nurseries). Please note that if you choose to leave your dog alone and they are continually barking, we are likely to call you and request that you return to care for your pet. After a day of exploring the Farm and nearby areas, relax with a drink in front of the roaring log burner – you are welcome to use logs from our wood store. There are so many things to do here and out and about, but for any rainy days, the cottage comes complete with a flat screen television and DVD player. There are a selection of books, board games and DVDs here for your use. There are a number of bookable experiences and treats here at Lower Marsh Farm including private wild food foraging workshops, stand-up paddle boarding tuition, spa treatments, afternoon tea, suppers and more. - Sleeps 2-3 people in 1 king size bed (which can be separated into twin singles if preferred) and a double sofa bed (suitable for a young child).
