A spacious converted barn, carefully designed and furnished to a high standard and located on the edge of a family-run farm in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty; it’s the perfect spot to enjoy all that North Cornwall offers. Porthcothan Bay, a stretch of sheltered, golden sand is less than a mile away and one of several family beaches along this outstanding stretch of coastline, where you can walk the cliff-top paths and drink in outstanding views.

The barn’s light and bright interior comprises a good-size lounge with comfortable sofas, TV, DVD player and wood burner-effect electric fire, together with a spacious separate kitchen/diner.

Lovely bright, clean, spacious, comfortable cottage. Adequate outside seating space however felt a little overlooked by neighboring accommodation and no views but this was a small price to pay for this outstanding cottage, nearby walks and beautiful coastal paths all in walking distance. We had a fab holiday Thankyou
