Tree Of Life Horsebox Holiday

Our 1969 traditional wooden horsebox has been renovated into a beautiful, modern living space for two people giving you the opportunity to stay on our fully organic, working smallholding.
The horsebox is situated in a small wooded area with its own private garden space and facilities.
The small holding is located in a beautiful area of Cornish countryside, on the edge of a wooded valley, 2 miles from the North Cornish coast, 10 miles from the south coast.

The horsebox is situated in a small wooded area with its own private garden space. The picture to the left is the view from the sofa looking out into the garden when the main door is lowered. The door can be raised and lowered as you like. Inside it has a small fitted kitchen with a gas cooker. In the cupboads there are most pots, pans and utensils you will need and storage for clothes and belongings.

There is a snug seating area in front of a wood burning stove and enough wood to keep the fire going if the evenings get cooler. The pictue to the right is taken in through the main door looking towards the kitchen area.

The sleeping area comprises of a double bed in the 'luton' area, above the cab of the lorry itself. The cupboards are of a sturdy construction and provide the steps up. This picture is taken from the kitchen area with the main door open. Bed linen and towels are provided although you are welcome to bring your own if you prefer. For a full list of things provided click here.

The view to the right is taken from the bedroom area. It's quite possible to lie in bed and hear the birds singing in the trees outside and the breeze rustling the leaves! You will hear a Skylark singing over the hay meadow in the spring. We have a number of bird nest boxes placed in the woods around so it can be busy in the spring time. There are also some bird feeders in the garden so it's possible to see a wide selection of birds coming to feed.

There's also compost loo which gives you a lovely view across a hay meadow to the horizon, a lovely place to watch the sunrise...if you're up and about early! Picture to the left. Next door there is shower and washing facilities, there's a butler sink to wash-up, a small fridge and a place to store coats and boots. Lighting is via a 12 volt system that is powered by photovoltaic solar panels. There are also lanterns and tealights. We are also planning to construct a solar outdoor shower soon.

The horsebox is situated 2 miles from the north coast, 10 miles from the south coast. It's a short walk to a small wildlife reserve called The Hayman Reserve. The area is laced with a network of footpaths, bridlepaths and old trackways. Perranporth and St Agnes are just a couple of miles away and offer wonderful beaches, good surfing, historic sites and coastal walking. The picture to the right is Perranporth beach in April. The Miners Arms in Mithian is the local pub. It serves fine food and ale and is only a short walk away.

There is a complimentry box of organic vegetables, fruit and eggs waiting for you on arrival.

Please note:
There is no smoking in the horsebox.
Sorry, no dogs!
