Leighton stud is the perfect idyllic retreat if you want to be amongst serene surrounds on a working property close to Launceston. We enjoyed a Christmas lunch in the cottage’s country garden (easily prepared in a simple but well equipped kitchen). Along with many walks around the beautiful property meeting chickens, horses and appreciating cherry tree lined paths and streams. Our host Genevieve had some great recommendations for meals in the Evandale village, which we took full advantage of - it couldn’t have been a nicer few days!
