Squirrels Leap - Modern comforts in quiet rural location
Bungalow with 2 Bedrooms, Sleeps 5
'Squirrel's Leap', at Rosecraddoc Lodge, just north of Liskeard, recently re-decorated both inside and outside by new owners, has only just become available for holiday lettings.
Situated in a small wooded valley at the foot of Bodmin Moor, an ideal place to 'relax and get away from it all'. You are surrounded by typical Cornish countryside while remaining within easy reach of many attractions, including Dobwalls, Looe, Polperro and many of Cornwall's lovely National Trust properties and gardens.
There is a Pub/restaurant just a short stroll away and many other eating places in the area.
*** Must stress though, this is a quiet and peaceful place, not an 18-30 style holiday camp! ***

Local activities in and around Liskeard, South West
Although this and our other bungalows are all wonderful places to ‘get away from it all’ and to spend time in a peaceful and relaxing environment, they are also well situated as a ‘centre’ from which to visit some of the many attractions in South-East Cornwall and South-West Devon.
The fishing villages of Looe, Polperro and Mevagissey are a short drive away. Golitha Falls are just a five minute drive from Mallards. Sibleyback and Colliford Lakes, both within 20 miutes, offer fishing and watersports as well as nature walks.
Ramblers have the expanse of Bodmin Moor, and even Dartmoor, given a short car trip.
Garden lovers and National Trust members are spoilt for choice in Cornwall. The Lost Gardens of Heligan, Lanhydroc, Boconnoc, Cothele and many more.
Children can be entertained at Dobwalls Theme Park (5 minutes away), Trethorne Leisure Farm (30 minutes away), or any of the beaches on the North or South coasts.
Plymouth is just a 40 minute drive away, with the National Marine Aquarium, the Barbican and the Hoe, the Plymouth Dome and the Theatre Royal. The Tamar Valley offers many quiet retreats, as well as places such as Cotehele House and the Quay at Calstock.
For golfers, St. Mellion is just a 20 minute drive away and plenty of other courses are within easy reach. Follow the link to 'Local golf' for further information.
Of course, the Eden Project will top the list for many visitors and Rosecraddoc is well situated, just 25-30 minutes away by road.
Trethorne Leisure Farm
A fantastic day out with the children. Plenty of animals and plenty of activities to keep them all busy. There's even a golf course as well.
M5 to Exeter. A38 through Plymouth, over Tamar Bridge to Liskeard. Follow signs to Launceston. Rosecraddoc Lodge is on the left, about a mile out of Liskeard, on the Launceston road.
