Photos and Description of this Landrake holiday cottage 18th Century Barn, converted into 4 cottages, sleeping between 2 & 6 people.

Markwell Farm is situated about 1.5 miles from Landrake village and the A38. Easily accessible, it is reached just 5 miles after crossing the River Tamar at Plymouth. Its quiet location affords superb views over rolling countryside with the spectacular St Germans viaduct and the River Tiddy as its centrepiece. The farm, which is 400 acres, has suckler cows and a large sheep flock as well as growing arable crops. Of course there are also a collection of dogs, cats, ponies and pet lambs to greet you and make friends with. Two 18th century barns have been tastefully converted into 4 cottages each sleeping between 2 and 6 people. Offering high quality, self-catering accommodation in a tranquil location but within easy reach of the best that Cornwall has to offer. Children are welcome and we can accept dogs in some of the cottages. While it is a commercially run farm, features have been enhanced to ensure that visitors are able to enjoy their stay to the full.

Markwell Farm: Visitors are encouraged to walk round the farm and enjoy the views and the animals. There is plenty of space for children to play. Look out for the Buzzards and the Badgers, listen for the owls at night. For most of the year there is furniture and bar-b-ques outside the cottages for you to sit and enjoy, along with a sand pit and toys for the children to play with.

Beaches: South East Cornwall enjoys some lovely sandy beaches. From the small villages of Kingsand and Cawsand to the rock pools of Downderry and Seaton. At low tide there is a large stretch of sand at Whitsand Bay, though the walk back up is a bit steep. Looe combines the beach for the children with the shops and wonderful cream teas.

Fabulous Place to Stay!

AndyM1 Oxon
Review Submitted: November 11, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
A warm welcome, complete with cream time, made this a great place to stay. Though it was a working farm it didn't detract from the service that was given by Alison and Matthew. We can certainly recommend the eggs!

The Stable was a nice place to stay with plenty of room downstairs. It was just on the edge of the wireless covereage but the signal was good enough for noraml surfing and e-mail.

The Notting Bridge Inn is an excellent place to eat though we tended to cook for ourselves as there are plenty of supermarkets nearby plus the local village in Landrakeshop.

Markwell Farm is ideal place to base a West Country holiday from as it has easy access to both Cornwall and Devon.

We would certainly recommend it as a place to stay.

Great !

LTB Horton Heath, Hampshire, England
Review Submitted: September 29, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
Great location with some fantastic views.
The accommodation was very clean and had everything that you need.
When we arrived we were greeted by a lovely Cornish cream tea, delicious !
Whilst the location was remote, local amenities were only 5 minutes away by car. The owners left us to our own devices which was much appreciated,but were only 2 minutes away if ever we needed anything.

Would definitely recommend !

Holiday at the Stable, Markwell, Farm

contented sole Ireland
Review Submitted: August 10, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We really enjoyed our holiday at Markwell Farm, we found it an ideal base to explore Cornwall and also makes the Moors in Devon very accessable. We found our host's very welcoming and there was a vast amount of details of the area to be found in the property, the property was very clean and very peaceful. we found a few lovely local pubs/restaurants in the area the Notting Bridge and Weary Friar our favourities. a visit to Loothe and Polpero is a must! also a visit to the Eden project is a great day out. The only down side side we found to our holiday in the area was the cost of car parking, we found it amazing that everywhere we went it was enpensive to park the car.

Markwell Farm

Sootie Kent
Review Submitted: August 9, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
The Stable cottage was homely, clean and a good base for sightseeing. The owner made us very welcome and the scones, jam and cream was a lovely thought, especially after a long journey. The cottage was very well equiped. A car is a must for this property as the nearest village/pub is a about 1 1/2 miles along narrow country lanes. Most places of interest and beaches and activities require at least half hour to an hours drive to reach. Meals at the local pub in Landrake village were a bit hit and miss, otherwise the nearest pub/restaurant is about 5 mins drive down the road. The take away in Saltash, however, was very good, and if you dont mind cooking 'at home' there is a large supermarket about 10 mins drive down the road. We did enjoy our holiday, but would not choose this kind of property again.

Review Submitted: June 21, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We all had a fantastic time at Markwell farm. We arrived after a very long journey complete with bank holiday traffic to a warm welcome from Allison and a cream tea awaiting in our cottage. The location was fantastic with baby lambs and calves and plenty of dogs. Our dog Max had a wonderful time socialising - he even went to stay for a day with the owner so we could go to the Eden project. The cottages are ideally placed to get to most areas in Cornwall and I would recomend the accomodation to anyone.
