This former hay barn has been lovingly converted into a two-storey cottage, creating a warm and bright couples’ getaway. Nestled in 5 acres of private, sub-tropical gardens meticulously developed over the years, this tranquil location ensures a peaceful sanctuary to unwind after a day of exploring. Nature enthusiasts will find joy in the numerous walks available right from the doorstep and the expansive gardens invite you to immerse yourself in the beauty of the outdoors. A short car journey (2.5 miles) takes you to Marazion boasting a long sandy beach and safe swimming. The breathtaking St Michael’s Mount majestically rising from the sea is a true delight and deserves a visit. If you’re looking for a vibrant atmosphere a visit to St Ives (5 miles) offers bustling streets and an artistic ambience. For a memorable cultural experience head to Porthcurno (13.5 miles) and enjoy a show at the renowned Minack Theatre.

Step inside this adorable cottage and into the inviting and warm open-plan living area, complete with a charming country-style kitchen equipped with all the essentials for self-catering convenience. A dining table for two awaits, along with a cosy sofa and a separate armchair, creating a homely and welcoming ambience. The exposed beams add a touch of rustic charm, while the windows offer delightful garden views that enhance the setting. A selection of reading and reference material is available. On this level, you’ll find a convenient shower room. Ascend the stairs to the double bedroom where you’ll be greeted by lovely views overlooking the terraced gardens and extending to the sea in the distance. Adjacent to the charming double bedroom is a compact yet well-appointed en-suite bathroom.

Step outside into your own courtyard area, enveloped by beautiful and fragrant plants amid striking stone walls. Bask in the tranquillity of the morning sun while enjoying a quiet breakfast with the soothing sounds of nature around you. The extensive gardens are teeming with diverse wildlife. Thoughtfully placed seating options dot the garden, providing you with a sunny spot throughout the day. There is also a beautifully quiet law area just across the pathway, complete with sun loungers and a beautiful stone grotto. Whether you seek relaxation or a touch of adventure, the enticing surroundings of the woodland setting offer an unforgettable retreat to rejuvenate your mind and soul.

Lovely cozy house, small, but comfortable, with all the equipment you need. Nice owners, who are close by and very helpful. Terrace of the barn is small, but the beautiful big garden is very close by and has several spots to relax in privacy. The garden ends in a real forest!

It was fine, everything you needed was there and it was comfortable. Not sure why there are DVD's on the shelf as there was no DVD player in the property so far as we could see. The folder giving details as to local places to visit could do with a refresh as some of the pages seemed quite old, however we already had our plans so it didn't affect usRead more. Hide

Cottage, as advertised, is small and because of this the bed can only be accessed from one side which causes difficulty. However it is in a convenient area to access the many small beaches and the town of Penzance. It is set in lovely gardens and the owners, who are on site, are very helpful.

We have had the most enjoyable week in this charming, well equipped character barn conversion, with everything needed to make our stay a comfortable one had been thought of.

Small but more than comfortable cottage with real countryside character and charming owner. If like us you have a bus pass and are into walking the location is difficult to beat. Easy access to the Saints way and Marazion on foot and regular bus service to St Ives or Penzance ten minutes walk, so you can park up your car.
