Better than the pics!

Lovely place in a gorgeous little location, stones throw from a magnificent local pub and so many nice places to visit. The house is immaculately clean, has very peaceful outside space and is very well equipped with all the facilities you’d need. We had a lovely time, many thanks again.

St. Kew and stay at Little Barn

A lovely little barn in a beautiful location. The village was lovely and quiet and the barn was just the right size for 2 adults and two teenage boys. Unfortunately we were unable to open the window in the room with bunk beds and so with two teenage boys, it got a bit stuffy. It was warm and cozy overall, we stayed in October. The location was ideal for trips out to places like port Isaac and padstow and polzeath and timetable, all being less than 30 minutes away by car. I felt the barn could do with a bit of a face lift and the mattress in the mezzanine had some springs that could be felt when laying on it. But this did not hinder our stay and reflected the very good price to stay there. I would certainly recommend this property for a small group, with the location and surrounding area, an absolute treat.

Woodland setting in a pretty village

Easy to find, beautiful village and excellent pub with very good food and friendly staff. Very convenient for visiting Port Issac without the problems of crowds and narrow streets/parking. a lovely coastal area for walks, some secluded beaches and inland, Bodmin moor. Wadebridge good for antique shops. Only downside was that the barn is right by the lane to the ford which is very busy very early as it is a cut through, and there is a huge modern farm close by which starts Machinery at 5 o’clock which you can hear! Only other potential problem for visitors is the upstairs double bed area has a very low ceiling and we are not tall! The benefits outweighed the few niggles.

Niedliches Barn in ländlicher Gegend

Die Unterkunft liegt sehr ländlich und typisch, aber nicht sehr weit weg von den schönen Städtchen Newquay und Padstow. Es gibt viele Möglichkeiten, den Urlaub aktiv zu verbringen und sich trotzdem gut auszuruhen.

Why they chose this property

The house is characterful and is comfortable and warm. The location in the heart of the village next to the stream, village church and close to the St Kew Inn is magical. Our children love having adventures in the woods, making dens and playing in the stream. It is a great place to unwind after a day at the beach or a long coastal walk.
