Cornwall is a county of stunning, natural beauty with its rugged coastline, sandy beaches, secluded coves and wild moorland. A county shrouded in myth and mystery. An ancient landscape scattered with granite standing stones and mystical stone circles; busy little fishing villages where time seems to stand still. It’s a place where you can feel and see the inspiration of writers and artists - old and new.

Darrynane too is a place of natural beauty and seclusion, with just a hint of mystery set in an ideal location for touring and sightseeing. On the fringe of Bodmin moor and it's rustic character that makes Darrynane so unique.

About ½ an hours' drive away is the popular Eden Project. This living theatre of plants, people and trees, with its world famous bio-domes and tropical climate provides the visitor with a unique Cornish experience all set in the midst of a giant, old quarry.

The beauty of being at Darrynane is that you can easily visit the North or South coast beaches. The North coast has a selection of very good beaches and provides the best surf. Trebarwith, a tidal beach, is an ideal family spot. Polzeath is a large all day beach offering swimming, surfing and rock pools.
Once your day is over it is nice to be able to leave the hustle and bustle of the seaside and its traffic behind and return to the privacy and calm of Darrynane and your self catering cottage.
