Stayed for a few days in one of the barn conversations
Absolutely brilliant, great location and everything you could want in the cottage. The owners could not have been more helpful. Lots of facilities, very family and dog friendly. Even collect fresh eggs from the chickens for free. Will be back without a doubt.

We really enjoyed our stay, the cottage was extremely clean, comfortable beds, nice large bath towels ( I cant stand tiny towels!) The kitchen area & bathroom look very new. There was everything we needed in the kitchen, even a steamer. The shower was lovely & powerful with plenty of hot water. A very comfortable cosy place to spend some time. The barn across was a good addition with game tables, films, games etc..plus the use of washing machine & dryer.

This place is absolutely beautiful. Cottages are lovely and comfy. There's an excellent playhouse just in front them for children and grownups to play during bad weather. The chickens provide lots of eggs for your breakfast! Recommend from our family!

Best family holiday cottage ever! For the first time I have visited a holiday cottage where the attention to detail is fab! Everything you can imagine for a perfect holiday has been catered for - baby gates, cutlery, board games, welcome with traditional cornish scones jam and cottage cream.. even the tea and coffee provided was Cornish! The owners are really friendly and my son got to play with the chickens and the lovely guinea pig Edgar. Beautiful views, spacious and modern accommodation!

A truly beautiful place to spend some time away from the rat race. We stayed in one of the converted barn/cottages, which was VERY comfortable with everything you could need. Great for children as the site itself is at the end of a long farm track, off a small country lane, so no need to worry about traffic. There is also a games room for the children and grassy areas for them to play. It's also only 5 minutes drive from Beautiful Boscastle . If I could give 6 stars I would
