Wonderful site to enjoy peace, beauty and use as a base to explore the area from

Ashdon Farm
Ashdon Farm is one of our favourite sites! The views are magnificent, the adventure of exploring the hidden small lakes on site with the beautiful flora and tranquillity make this site a fantastic stop for either a long weekend or longer as there are plenty of nearby places to explore. There are great nearby pubs and cafes within walking or cycling distance plus Cotehele National Trust, river walks, Kit Hill with 360 degree views, and much more. The owners are very friendly and always willing to give help and guidance and the site is really well maintained and looked after. if you are looking for somewhere quiet and relaxing, this is the place to go! Really recommend you give it a go. it is an absolute hidden treasure!

Lovely quiet site with a hidden gem

Ashdon Farm
Stayed here while attending the club towing course, it's ideally placed for that. This is the most quietest site we've ever stayed on and we enjoyed every minute of it. The owners are a lovely couple and always had time for a chat when out and about. The dog walk is accessed through a field of sheep, so the dog was on a lead all the time. Once through that field the true dog walk starts. Three or four small lakes have been created with lovely flowers planted all around. There are places to sit and watch the world go by. Just a pity that I can't upload any photos to this site. Went for a drink and a meal at the Who'd of thought it pub, which is dog friendly and that was very nice. It's only a ten minute drive as you head towards Cotehele House. We'll be staying at this site again, once the weather warms up.
