Primrose Cottage Sleeps 4
Thick stone walls, deep window recesses, leaded windows and beamed ceilings, Primrose is another lovely example of a traditional Cornish cottage. Thoughtfully updated to make the most of the space.
Primrose Cottage is very different in style from its neighbour. A small entrance hall leads into a kitchen diner, which cleverly incorporates the under-stairs area and has its sink built into a delightful window recess that overlooks the garden. The separate sitting room has a large granite fireplace that houses a real-effect electric woodstove and upstairs is a charming double room with a four poster and a bedroom with bunk beds and space for an optional additional small single. The family sized bathroom is on the ground floor.

This traditional old cottage has a truly romantic feel – with thick granite walls, exposed beams, low upstairs ceilings and a wood-burning stove in the large, original Cornish fireplace that once housed a range. A bow window looks out across a lawn from the living room, which has open plan lounge, dining area and kitchen in an L-shape.
The bathroom with separate toilet, is also on the ground floor, while upstairs is the double bedroom with a beautifully trimmed four poster bed and an L-shaped twin room – both with sloping wood ceilings and lovely views across the garden.

About Us
Just outside Camelford, on the fringe of the wild moors is a long, country lane, once used by smugglers travelling from Trebarwith Strand to Jamaica Inn. Follow that peaceful lane through the trees and past the fields and just as the whole world seems to have been left behind, you will find Aldermoor Farm, nestling in a hollow, offering you privacy, amity and a truly relaxing break.
Aldermoor Farm has garnered more than 300 years worth of secrets since it was built by moorland dwellers from local stones. Soaked in the colourful history of this area, it offers a perfect holiday experience: a combination of unrivalled tranquillity and unending diversion. Aldermoor is a small grassland farm on the edge of Bodmin Moor and we have lived and farmed here for the past 30 years. The earliest known record of Aldermoor was found on a map dated 1742 in Lanhydrock, although it probably existed many years before that date.
We used to run a small herd of suckler cows and a flock of sheep, together with an array of other livestock such as pigs, geese and chickens. There are many funny stories that can be told about our animals. We now let the grass to our neighbours and it is stocked with cattle in the summer months and sheep in the winter. And there is still an ever-increasing menagerie of fur and feathers, both domestic and wild for you to enjoy and more opportunities to immerse yourself in country living than you could wish for.
The cottages were originally moorland homes, converted many years ago into holiday accommodation. Over the years we have done our bit to enhance the comfort and cosiness of the accommodation they now provide. We feel we can offer our guests something truly special – a relaxing holiday with comfortable, homely accommodation surrounded by the best that nature has to offer in a beautiful part of the country.

Plenty of car parking space

Pets are welcome on the understanding that they are kept under control at all times and are not left unsupervised in the cottages.
If you would like to venture slightly further than the garden, there are wonderful walks and footpaths across the farm and the surrounding area with lots of opportunities for wildlife and bird watching. The moors are easily accessible on foot and there are some lovely villages nearby – St Teath and St Breward for instance – with wonderful village pubs and a proper Cornish atmosphere. |
