John and Alison Werren welcome guests to these luxury barn conversions full of rustic charm in a beautiful river valley setting. The spacious and well-equipped accommodation offers a relaxing atmosphere with plenty of country walks beside the river and through the fields. There is also alot of wildlife to see including kingfishers, sandmartins, buzzards and herons, maybe an otter or skylark. You can also watch the wildlife on and around the river from the large hide overlooking the River Ottery on the Devon and Cornwall boundary. There are webcams set up to capture the wildlife around the farm which can be viewed on the TV in your cottage, you may be lucky enough to watch swallows eggs hatching in the nest or bats leaving an old barn. A wonderful centre for visiting Cornwall and Devon. Many all year round attractions are within easy travelling distance, including The Eden Project (purchase discounted fast track tickets available from farmhouse), Plymouth Aquarium, Morwellham Quay, and King Arthur's Castle at Tintagel.
