Some properties pet friendly. It has often been said that Rosecraddoc Manor must be the nearest thing to paradise. The manor properties stand in 38 acres of beautiful grounds and woodlands, set around a lovely lake, stocked with carp, roach and bream. Rosecraddoc Manor features a variety of properties surrounding the historic Manor House to cater for all tastes whether classic, modern, cosy or cottage style is what you are looking for. The manor was built in the 1820s on the site of a much older house mentioned in the Domesday Book. It is Grade II listed, along with two bridges in the grounds, and has now been converted into these attractive apartments and cottages, making a perfect base for your Cornish holiday.
On site you can fish on the lake (bring own fishing licence, barbless hooks and landing nets must be used, please) or play tennis on the all weather court (smooth soled tennis shoes to be worn, not squash shoes; please bring your own racquets and tennis balls). If you can bear to leave this beautiful spot, just 2½ miles away in Liskeard there is a superb leisure complex, where you can enjoy squash, badminton, gym, indoor bowls and indoor leisure pools, which include a children’s pool and flume, as well as the main pool.
Within 4 miles you can explore Bodmin Moor, where you can go riding, walking or even try water sports on Siblyback Lake - wind surfing, dinghy sailing and canoeing are available. To the south, lovely sandy beaches and pretty fishing harbours lie along the coast. Several excellent golf courses can also be found in the area; and the Eden Project is only 20 miles away.
The Manor and the Coach House have been tastefully and sympathetically restored to please the most discerning guest. The cottages are refs B6859, CV7102, CV7103, CV17, CV13 and CV44. Some of the cottages are suitable for guests with disabilities (CV44 is designed for the convenience of visitors with disabilities, as well as able-bodied visitors), and ref B6859 boasts an American fridge/freezer. Access to the front door of the manor is by 3 stone steps. The apartments are refs CV14, CV20, CV11 and B4866 which are all on the first floor and ref CV12 is a ground floor apartment. Whichever you choose you will find it immaculately clean, with freshly laundered linen and tea towels. Please bring your own towels. Cot linen is not supplied. Cornwall is well known for its mild climate, but at Rosecraddoc Manor, even if it is cold outside, your accommodation will be warm and welcoming. There are several pubs locally. An ideal venue for all the family. Pub 1½ miles.

Beautiful grounds, peaceful & relaxing.
Beautiful grounds, peaceful & relaxing. Very dog friendly which is a big plus for us, with a lovely little wood adjoining the grounds for early morning walks. A simple no fuss self check in and out, so no waiting. It made a good base as it is central to the places we wanted to visit. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

the holiday and the accomadation was lovely the grounds were beautifully kept and lovely walks aroun
the holiday and the accomadation was lovely the grounds were beautifully kept and lovely walks around the grounds there was only one issue we had and that my husband had gone there to do a bit of fishing as wahat they described as a good fishing lake we where very dissapointed as it was really unfishable due to over grown weeds as in lilly pads it was more or less full of this so if you caught a fish it would just go into the weeds and snap your line i think it needs to be cleaned out or not advertise as fishing . on the whole apart from that we had a lovely holiday
Sorry it may of been a different story to tell if we was staying in another of the cottages, so this only applies for carpenters cottage. The managers friendly the chap very good but issues discovered day 1 were helped with but made to feel we was asking too much by his wife...the issues being; turned on the shower and it tripped a fused, as it’s got shown how to sort that 🤔 it appears to be a known fault (really not comfortable messing with a circuit board) when it did work it was either scorching hot or freezing cold not able to stand under it so ficking water over your body and hair washing had to be done in cold water, I asked for towels the chap happy to help ...the wife brought them and that’s when I got my telling off, asked not to go walking about to try and find them or go to the cottage where they lived (I didn’t FYI) but was warned nonetheless...she seemed stressed said she was ‘definitely have a drink tonight’ and to text or call in future but hopefully nothing else would be wrong....the toilet saniflow system...became unusable often taking 10 plus flushes, very run down & damp ...but we put on our it’s all in the experience faces, but we left by Wednesday. The grounds are lovely but that cottage ruined our vacation and didn’t feel we could say anything else for fear of getting another telling off.

If you love the therapy of a lake with well maintained surrounding gardens, a friendly welcome from the managers Steve and Julie and a comfortable place to stay, this will be for you. We loved our short break at the beginning of July which was a peaceful, relaxing time.

I travelled to Cornwall on the busiest weekend of the year however once I made it to Rosecraddoc Manor I found that I had been upgraded from one-bedroomed Carpenters to two-bedroomed Stable in the same complex due to water problems. As usual I travelled a path less trodden round Cornwall avoiding the honeypots. My week was relaxing as usual due to Cornwall's charms and Rosecraddoc's comforts. I will return to Rosecraddoc Manor next year, albeit in the Spring, to continue my Cornish ramblings.
