10 minutes from Cider Cottage is the village of Minions, the highest Village in Cornwall set on Bodmin Moor. A short walk will give stunning views and a chance to see ancient stone circles, historic mining engine houses, the iconic Cheesewring and much more.
It is truly a super place to explore and each time we visit we find something new. Some sequences in the recently screened TV series Poldark were filmed here. The Stagecoach scenes and lonely crossroads with Ross & Demelza on horseback. Indeed the area is often used for filming, it has such an atmospheric timeless appeal.
There is a Pub and Cafés in the village to complete a visit to this interesting scenic area. And of course the children and fans of the yellow and blue characters Minions, love having their photo taken with the Village sign.
