In front of you, tucked away behind ancient Holme Oaks, is the 18th century rooftop of Mudgeon Vean Farmhouse. Through the trees is the patchwork of seasonal agriculture, ancient woodland and hedges with a panorama which can be quiet and seductive or unpredictable and fierce. Our newest cottage - come and stay in one of our highly recommended self-catering holiday cottages.
Our Valley View cottage is fully accesible for wheelchair users! You will be able to capture sunsets comparable to the Mediterranean, with dramatic skies and clouds that travel swiftly across the miles of countryside. In the fields grow crops and dairy heifers graze. The farm is still home to many chickens, ducks, 2 turkeys, cats, dogs, as well as numerous species of wildlife.

Our purpose-built accessible cottage - Valley View, as the name implies, has views across an extensive valley area above the Helford River. Constructed with loving attention to detail using oak from our own ancient woodlands for window and door lintels, with a vaulted ceiling in the open plan lounge kitchen dining area.
There is parking for two cars in the lane beside the back yard of Badger Cottage. It is clearly labelled Badger Cottage Parking. There is a small sloped step into the enclosed yard of Badger Cottage front door. There is a small granite step with a wooden doorstep on the top, which leads into the lounge.
Some cacti and other plants enjoy the sun and appreciate a drop of water when its very hot!. There is a pretty walled area at the front which separates the cottages from the farmyard. There is parking for one car, please ask where to park a second vehicle. It is clearly labelled Swallow Cottage Parking.
The view as you turn in the drive is superb and we've watched some beautiful sunsets. 2 weeks was definitely better than 1- but the trouble is we'd like to stay longer! This was a weeks holiday away from everyday stresses such as noise, crowds, traffic jams, emails and work. This is a very quiet and peaceful location, ideal if you want privacy, a place to just take in the peace and scenery but with some fantastic beaches within a 10 minute drive.
Mudgeon Vean is situated in a superb location in an area of outstanding natural beauty with the rugged coastline of the Lizard Peninsula nearby, ideal for walkers and families alike through all the seasons. The farm is bordered by a beautiful National Trust footpath to the Helford Estuary, offering the peace and tranquillity that has inspired many authors including Daphne du Maurier in her novel Frenchman's Creek.
