Halwyn is an old Cornish farmstead, with the farmhouse believed to be around 250 years old, situated in a quiet and secluded valley on the Lizard Peninsula, and designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Halwyn is located in very rural surroundings, 2 miles from the nearest village and the roads from the village to Halwyn are single track lanes with passing places.
We have 3 cosy and comfortable holiday homes which have been converted from an old barn and the piggery. Bed and Breakfast or half board accommodation is available in the farmhouse which is also our home and we aim to make our guests feel welcomed, comfortable and "at home".
You may well get to meet our "family"; Toffee our very elderly King Charles Spaniel/Yorkie cross breed dog, Somerfield the Border Collie we found in a supermarket car park ( hence the name!!!!) and finally Cefor our ginger cat who just arrived at Halwyn one day and hasn't left since!!
Here you will find peace and tranquillity second to none, passing traffic is a rarity, with only the sounds of nature to break the silence.
The grounds at Halwyn extend to some 2 acres and include a stream, a small lake and beautiful lawned areas as well as many unusual and beautiful sub-tropical plants which grow well here with the benefit of the Gulf Stream.
