We have sought to make
our barn everything we seek in holiday accommodation – visually appealing with a
real sense of place, comfortable and equipped with all the little extras that
make a house a home.

with comfortable sofas and chairs, dining for 7 and a fully fitted kitchen
Double bedroom with 5-foot bed and
ensuite bathroom with bathtub with shower

The living room, dining area
and kitchen with its beamed ceiling and exposed timbers together with the
original warm stone walls and slate floor form a cosy yet relaxing place to
read, eat and cook – or just chill out. The living room is equipped with a
television with Freeview and DVD and CD players
The fully fitted kitchen with granite worktop, ceramic hob, stainless steel
oven, dishwasher and full-size fridge/ freezer is aimed to make cooking easy and
fun if you plan a gourmet week – but if that’s not your plan, the microwave is
to hand!
Each bedroom is colour themed – blue for the sea, gold for gorse and grey for
granite. The blue room has a 5 ft traditional iron bed on modern beechwood
springing and warm antique furniture. The gold room has a 5 ft wooden Breton bed
(Brittany is a kindred Celtic region to Cornwall) and the grey room is the snug
or office with a desk and an iron day bed that easily converts into twin
beds – ideal for snoozing between emails! All bedrooms have wool fitted carpets
for warmth and comfort.
The two modern tiled bathrooms which are ensuite to the bedrooms are sumptuously
fitted out for a relaxing “soak” after a strenuous day’s walking, surfing, or
exploring on the beach. One has a full-length bath and shower while the other is
a shower wet-room with a wonderful pebble floor.
All our water comes from our own borehole and well and is gloriously soft and
tasty. We ensure its safety by filtration and sanitization – but add no
chemicals – and it is regularly checked. There is arguably no better water
outside Scotland to add to your whisky!
Overlooking the valley and the lighthouse on Godrevy island is a grassed patio
with granite seat and picnic table which lets you watch the sun go down, listen
to the birds or watch the cows contentedly chewing the cud!
So, just packing your clothes and coming here is all you need to do – even if
you are coming from the USA, as we have US 120 volt wall sockets in every room –
as well as the usual 240 volt UK type!
