  • Beautiful romantic modern barn conversion set in a rural location, perfect for couples
  • Ideally situated for exploring the West Cornwall coastline and numerous attractions
  • Romantic touches, sumptuous funishings and views over the countryside and St Michael's Mount
Property code: OC-88008

With beautiful views over open fields and woodland towards spectacular St Michael’s Mount in the distance, this romantic stone-built barn conversion is the ideal bolt-hole for a couple on a rural retreat. Conveniently located for exploring the delights of West Cornwall, spend your days enjoying gorgeous beaches, roaming picturesque towns and villages and relaxing on your private terrace in this idyllic countryside setting.

With thick stone walls and a homely interior, fall in love with this charming barn as soon as you enter through the doorway. Inside, discover contemporary finishes alongside hints of an agricultural past. The kitchen/diner is perfectly prepared to host meals for two with everything a chef could need. Curl up together on the plush sofa in the cosy living room after a day of adventure, or head outside to the private terrace and enjoy a sun-downer or two while taking in the far-reaching views over rolling fields against a backdrop of St Michael's Mount. When it comes time for bed, a welcoming double room with a king size bed promises a good night’s sleep with soft lighting and a peaceful ambience in this quiet rural location. A stylish shower room with a large double shower completes this wonderful home.

To enjoy both the coast and the country, the placement of this property couldn’t be better. Stroll the surrounding lanes and footpaths for glorious walks amongst nature. Stop off for a refresher at the village of Ludgvan’s welcoming pub (less than a mile) serving local ales and hearty dishes, or head to the coast (1.5 miles) for a day at Long Rock’s sand and shingle beach where you can also join the South West Coast Path for a walk along the rugged coastline. With a huge range of attractions and incredible natural beauty, it’s no surprise that Cornwall is such a firm holiday favourite. The fabulous beach of Praa Sands is 7 miles away, where you can try your hand at surfing and take on the waves, or for a more sedate day out, watch an outdoor performance at the breathtaking Minack Theatre (12 miles). Land’s End (12.5 miles) marks the most westerly point of mainland Britain, where the Atlantic rollers crash against towering cliffs, and the historic town of Penzance is 2 miles away, home to a fantastic range of shops and eateries boasting fresh regional produce.

Quiet, restful, and very well equipped. We slept very well in a very comfortable bed.The view from the cottage is to die for. You could easily sit and look at the view all day and think you have had a great holiday.

We chose this cottage for its location as it gives easy access to Penzance and Marazion areas. This cuts out queuing in traffic in the Hayle / St Erth areas. On arriving we found the cottage lovely and clean with good quality equipment. Sitting in the outside area the view of St Michaels Mount is superb.

We are a couple from Germany with a one year old toddler who haven't been to Cornwall before and we weren't sure what to expect, so posting this really is intended to help you with choosing this property. The things I was afraid of beforehand: that it might smell musty (stone cottage), that you don't have enough privacy because the owners live nexRead moret door, that everything's old and run down (the sofa didn't look that convincing on the pictures). The things we got: no musty smell, fresh flowers (thank you!!!), top notch bathroom and kitchen (to put it with my husband's words: the kitchen is fun to use), absolute cleanliness and thus a wonderful play area with a thick carpet for our toddler, a fantastic view, a really good location (almost everything we wanted to visit, including English supermarkets ;) was just a short drive away). We thus cannot but recommend the cottage for a couple/ a couple with a little child sleeping in the same bed. We miss it already and are already thinking of possibilities of returning soon. Thank you, Chris and Angie! Hide

Chris the owner was really nice helpful with directions. For us the barn was an ideal location with great views and very clean and comfortable. The location is good for driving and getting the bus into seaside towns. The walk down to Marazion is about 30 minutes would definitely go back to the same location.

The cottage is a former barn, with an excellent view from the terrace on the Mt. St. Michael, we loved it! While the view is really marvelous from the terrace, the wind was not ideally positioned and brought quite a noise from the nearby quasi highway. We would still recommend this lovely barn!

Overall we would recommend the property the views are lovely & the outside area is a bonus but the traffic noise was a surprise as the property is quite isolated & the noise was constant day & night. The property is in excellent order & comfortable. We enjoyed our stay it was a good base to explore the surrounding area.

Fantastic view of St Michaels mount, 20 mins walk to Long Rock , recommend walking through field to foot bridge across A30 , other footpath more direct but have to cross the A30 on foot , it felt quite dangerous although actual crossing. Must try Fish Chowder at the Cuttysark in Marazion! Book or be disappointed.

Cottage perfect for couples. Was well equipped and had great views (weather permitting). Great location for getting out and about and seeing the countryside. Bed was comfy and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Large supermarkets within easy reach and loved the Cornish pasty shop too. Thank you for sharing this beautiful cottage.
