Cosy rural barn retreat for couples near stunning Cornish coast

Escape to this charming one-bed stone barn conversion nestled in a quiet rural hamlet within easy reach of North Cornwall & Devon's breath-taking coastline. Just nine miles from the seaside town of Bude, this hideaway offers the perfect blend of relaxation and the chance to explore unspoilt North Cornwall & Devon. A car is essential to make the most of this scenic area.
The barn combines rustic character with modern comforts, with a luxurious king-size bed for a great night's sleep. Guests have often described the barn as a home away from home, with good Wi-Fi and parking adjacent to the Barn. There's a Utility room next door with washing machine and dryer, and additional freezer space if you need it.
Unwind in the peaceful surroundings and reconnect with the natural world. There is a lovely private sunny seating area in front of the Barn where you can watch goldfinches, tits and the occasional woodpecker feeding from the birdfeeders. Depending on the time of year you might see starling murmurations on our front lawn, long-eared bats catching insects at dusk, or hedgehogs late at night. Our black and white rescue cat, Bubble, keeps a watchful eye over the whole farm. Alternatively, take advantage of all the walking opportunities, or explore the surrounding areas. We provide a wealth of information so that you can get the most out of your well-earned break. This includes our own guide covering places to eat and visit, the best local walks – many circular ones from our farm - beaches, and hidden gems.
We welcome one well-behaved, adult, dog. We ask dog owners to keep their dog on a lead when outside because the area in front of the Barn is not fully enclosed. The surrounding area is very dog friendly, and you may find shopkeepers offering your pet a treat with every visit! Most pubs and restaurants welcome dogs and nearby National Trust's Sandymouth beach allows dogs all year round.
Please note that the Barn is not suitable for babies, infants or children.
Although we are no longer a working farm a local farmer uses our organic field for his beef cattle, and we keep a few chickens.
We love welcoming guests from all areas of the UK and the world, with the aim that that they return home with everlasting memories of their stay here.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchenette and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, an electric kettle, and an ironing board. Change of towels is available on request.
