About this property

Aval Dor Barn, Hot Tub, Pet Friendly

Within easy reach of St. Michaels Mount and just a few miles away from the market town of Penzance it provides a wonderful base from which to explore the coastline and attractions of west Cornwall.

Elegantly furnished and thoughtfully equipped, the cottage offers two spacious upstairs bedrooms (one with a king size and one with twins) to provide sumptuous sleeping for four guests. The cottage’s private garden is secluded and enclosed with a lush appearance derived from its array of established plants; and has a picnic bench that makes for a relaxing place to enjoy a morning coffee, evening drinks or outdoor dining.

Generously proportioned and open plan in layout, the ground floor incorporates a tasteful sitting room complete with traditional cast iron log burner, a roomy L-shaped sofa, a beanbag and a Smart TV. The dining area with its handmade hardwood table, chairs and bench seat is the perfect place for sharing meals, while the kitchen, which comes fully stocked with a range of cookware, utensils and appliances, makes whipping up home cooked creations a breeze.

*This property has a maximum occupancy of 4 which includes infants

Lovely cottage, and hosts. Nice surprise when we arrived, as it was my 50th whilst away, and hosts had placed a banner and balloons. Thank you. Clean and hot tub was treated twice during our stay. Fresh eggs available on site, and well located, three minutes to to beach (traffic permitting)

Wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage.

We booked this beautiful cottage and it did not disappoint. The cottage amazing and loved the hot tub. Bed really comfy and fab to sit in the sunny garden of an evening with a glass of wine. The hosts were superb. Thank you. Will definitely return. Fantastic position to access so many places.

Hi Carol. Thanks for taking the time to leave your review! We're really happy to hear you had a good time, and that you enjoyed the outside of the cottage as much as the inside. We hope to welcome you back in the future! All the best, Luxury Coastal

Good location

Good location with access to a good bus service. 5 mins from supermarkets. Local pub, The White Hart is walkable to and does food. Would stay here again. Couple of minor issues relate to couple of table lamps broken and cob webs in rooms, although the accomodation felt clean. Kitchen well fitted out, minor issue with leaking tap on kitchen sink. The accomodation is good and the location is good.

Great location with a good price!

We stayed for six nights, unfortunately we were both sick for the duration so didn’t go out as much as we thought we would, we had a problem with the front door which they sorted out as a priority. You re on the A30 so it’s easy to find and there isn’t much noise from the road, the bed is comfortable, lounge isn’t quite as comfy but we did spend a lot of time on it. It’s a lovely part of the world and at a good price because it’s just a mile back from the shoreline.

Honest review

The accommodation is good, offers plenty of space and is generally clean but sofa & oven needs a good clean. Log fire & hot tub are perfect after a day out exploring. Kitchen could be better equipped for self-catering, lack of basic utensils and small fridge with compartment freezer. The garden patio could do with a jet wash. The hot tub was clean but I think had a little too much chlorine in it. The sofa is ok, but could be better. The beds are really comfortable, clean & fresh. Overall we had a great time and were able to feel comfortable and relax. A few tweaks could be made.

Hi Chris, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review regarding your recent stay. It’s wonderful to hear that you had a great time overall. We’re delighted that you found the accommodation spacious and generally clean. However, we apologize for any oversight regarding the sofa and oven. We’ll ensure a thorough cleaning to make them sparkle for future guests. The log fire and hot tub are indeed perfect companions after a day of exploration. There’s something magical about unwinding by the fire or soaking in warm waters under the open sky. Your feedback about the kitchen is valuable. We’ll take note of the need for better-equipped utensils and consider expanding the kitchen essentials. After all, self-catering should be a breeze! A jet wash for the garden patio is on our to-do list. Freshening up the outdoor space ensures that guests can fully enjoy the surroundings. We appreciate your observation about the chlorine level in the hot tub. Striking the right balance is crucial for the safety of our guests and they are checked when filled. While the sofa is functional, we’ll explore ways to enhance its comfort. On the bright side, the beds have received your seal of approval – clean, fresh, and oh-so-comfortable! In summary, we’re thrilled that you felt comfortable and relaxed during your stay. Your feedback helps us fine-tune the experience for future guests. Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team

6/10 Okay

Curated Egg - Good in parts!

Cottage booked for 4 adults, 1 infant and 3 dogs. Fortunately 2 adults and 1 dog were unable to attend! The cottage has beautiful rooms up stairs and a good kitchen area. The sitting room area is barely adequate for 2 people and certainly not support 4 adults. The sitting supports 2-3 people with difficulty and is tired and uncomfortable. The biggest issue is the property is not dog friendly. The courtyard has no gf area and leads straight onto the A30. Similarly the back garden chicken wire fence has holes leading on to the A30. Overall a very disappointing hire.

6/10 Okay

Great location, poor execution

Location of the property was fantastic, easy driving distance from all of the places we wanted to visit and not far from a variety of shops. Hot tub was a nice way to relax at the end of a long day. Overall finish of the property was quite shabby, there were multiple areas where plaster had not been sanded but just painted over, the floor downstars had scratches all over it and the stair railing was really loose at the bootom. The front door had dropped making it difficult to open and close. The oven trays were dirty with burnt on food with no foil to cover them. The extractor fan in the bathroom could also use a good clean. The toilet seat in the bathroom didn't even fit the toilet, to be honest it wasn't worth having!! The back garden would have been amazing but for a few small improvements to the fencing, it is a lovely size but just not safe for a small dog! The fencing at the back has rolled up in places where our dog could have easily got through (yes he tried) and would have had full access to a main road. I don't mind supervising my dog in the garden but we had to keep him on a lead at all times because it wasn't safe.
