About this property

The Forge, North Cornwall, Family & Dog Friendly

Tucked away in the peaceful hamlet of Hellandbridge, The Forge offers a tranquil countryside escape where the only sounds are birdsong, flowing water, and the rustle of trees. Wake up to soft morning light filtering through the windows and step outside to breathe in the fresh Cornish air as the River Camel drifts quietly nearby.

Start your day with a slow breakfast in the well-equipped kitchen, or enjoy your morning coffee outside surrounded by nature. When you're ready to explore, wander straight onto the Camel Trail, just moments from your door, and follow the scenic route by foot or bicycle through woodland, open fields, and along the river towards Bodmin or Wadebridge.

After a day of exploring Cornwall’s wild coastline, charming villages, or historic sites, return to The Forge for a relaxing evening. Curl up with a book, share a glass of wine in the garden as the sun dips behind the trees, or enjoy a cosy night in with a home-cooked meal.

Whether you're seeking quiet time away from the rush, an active break filled with walks and cycle adventures, or a comfortable base to explore North Cornwall, The Forge offers a peaceful retreat where you can truly unwind.

A stay here feels like pressing pause — calm, simple, restorative, and surrounded by nature.

Great communication beforehand. What a beautiful property! Located next to a river in a secluded setting, the property had everything you need and was furnished beautifully. All the beds were super comfortable and the place was spotless. We explored the local area and cannot wait to return to stay at this fantastic home and explore some more! Thank you!
