The name Lesnewth is of Cornish origin and means 'New Court' that is 'a chieftan's estate'. Some of the oldest buildings of Lesnewth include the Church, the Rectory & the Mill. The village is situated approximately 2 miles east of Boscastle and 6 miles east of Tintagel. Boscastle is a tiny port set in a narrow ravine, the town came into prominence recently as a result of terrible floods in the summer of 2004. There is a pottery in the village and several gift shops. A footpath to the left of the quayside will take you to the 'Lookout' which is a wonderful vantage point from which to view the rugged coastline.
Boscastle was once a favourite meeting place of the author Thomas Hardy, and is the location for one of his novels 'A Pair of Blue Eyes'. Boat trips can be taken from the harbour as far as Long Island, where during the breeding season you may see razorbills, puffins & guillemots. There is a demanding 7 mile coastal path walk between Boscastle and Crackington Haven. There are several attractions along this stretch of coast including Strangles beach at the bottom of a large landslip with a rock arch the Northern Door. Just south of here is High Cliff which is the highest point on the Cornish coast path. Don't forget to visit Pentargon inlet which has an imposing waterfall that cascades down to the sea below.

Guest from Birmingham stayed for 4 nights.
A lovely holiday home fully equipped for all the family, picturesque rural location and helpful and approachable landlords. The farm track to the property was fun but well worth navigating to the lovely barn with all mod cons. We had a wonderful time thank you Sarah and Robin.

Guest from Leamington Spa stayed for 7 nights.
The Leat is very well equipped and comfortable. There is plenty of room for 8 people and ideal for a relaxing holiday. Although the weather wasnt great, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A big plus that we could take our 3 dogs! The only slight downside is the unmade track to the property, which rattled my car about, but this certainly wouldnt stop me returning!
