Three miles from the sandy beaches on the South Coast, this newly converted, detached stone barn offers spacious inverted accommodation with peaceful views across the surrounding fields and wooded valley. Named after a pair of resident barn owls that choose to nest here which can be viewed on a live video link from the property on the owners 280 acre working livestock farm, it is an ideal base for exploring the unspoilt South East corner of Cornwall.

Approached by a long private drive, the barn is fronted by a gated tarmac parking area with space for several cars and from here, one step leads up to the stable door on the first floor opening to an entrance hallway with a slate tiled floor.

On one side of the hall is a cloakroom W.C. with hand basin, and on the opposite side is a utility room with storage space for beach gear. A well equipped kitchen has farmhouse style fitted units including a double oven, there is an adjacent dining area and an archway leads through to a delightful sitting room with a beamed ceiling open to the apex of the roof and tranquil country views from French Windows that open inwards with iron railings.

Leading off to one side, a kingsize bedroom has patio doors opening to a small timber railed balcony with quiet views of the countryside and also an en-suite shower room W.C. with hand basin.

In one corner of the lounge, two steps lead up to a little snug area with a huge arched window, and from here, stairs lead down to a ground floor hallway where there are three bedrooms and a bathroom W.C. with hand basin, bath and shower cubicle. There is a double bedroom with a kingsize bed, one with twin 3ft beds, and the third bedroom, reached by two steps, has two 3ft single beds and a half glazed door opening to a courtyard.

The barn has its own large grassy garden extending around two sides of the property with a sheltered patio area and post and rail fencing bordering on to farmland which visitors are welcome to mindfully explore.

The nearest pub is at Hessenford, 1.5 miles away, and there are small shops at both Seaton and Downderry, approximately 3 miles, where there are sandy beaches with rock pools. Antony House and Mount Edgcumbe Country Park are within easy reach as are golf courses, riding stables and boat trips that depart from the quay in Looe 6 miles away. Bake fishing lakes are just a few minutes drive away offering coarse and fly fishing and there are stunning coastal walks along Whitsand Bay and around Rame Head. Plymouth is 14 miles

Sleeps
Close
When a property shows 'sleeps' in the format X-Y, X equals the maximum number of adults that can comfortably be accommodated and Y indicates the maximum number of adults + children that can be comfortably accommodated in the property.
Customer Rating
Close
Our rating method, the popular "smiles" system is generated entirely by the feedback we receive from our visitors. The number of smiles is arrived at by taking the average grading given to the question:

How would you rate the cottage's fittings, furnishings and equipment?’

A property will achieve a rating of 5 Smiles down to 1 Smile, although it is our policy not to carry any properties with ratings lower than 3 Smiles. The customer chooses from the following ratings:
  1. Excellent
  2. Good
  3. Satisfactory
  4. Below standard
  5. Poor
There are a number of properties that have been recently added to our portfolio and these are graded "New".
Pets
Close
There is an extra charge for pets, most commonly at £18 pppw (per pet per week).

Assistance dogs are of course welcome in all our cottages free of charge, however owners of them should be aware that a considerable number of people are allergic to dogs and in some cases can have a severe reaction. Owners are therefore encouraged, where at all possible, to choose a property which normally allows pets.

Some properties accept pets other than dogs, but in all cases we are required to confirm consent from the cottage owner. Please contact the office on 01208 821 666 if you would like to take a pet other than a dog with you to one of our cottages.

Loyalty Discount
Close
A 5% loyalty discount is available at some properties for guests who have booked a second or further holiday within 2 years through Cornish Traditional Cottages. If you are eligible for the Loyalty Discount your final balance payment will be reduced accordingly after your booking has been submitted. The Loyalty Discount cannot be claimed with any other discount.
How to book
Close
  1. Select the check box next to the week(s) you wish to book. Multiple weeks can only be booked consecutively. Non consecutive weeks must be booked separately.
  2. A summary of your booking will appear. To proceed with the booking select the 'Continue booking' button in the summary box. Deselect the weeks to remove the summary box.
  3. Weeks marked as 'Reserve' (highlighted in blue) cannot be booked at this point in time because availability and prices have not yet been agreed with the owner. You can reserve these weeks in your name until availability and pricing has been agreed. It is important to note that a 'Reserved' period can only be confirmed in your name if the owner wishes to make the Reserved period available for booking.
  4. 'Reserved' weeks (as opposed to 'Reserve' weeks) can only be booked by a customer who has 'Reserved' the highlighted period.

Pricing information

All prices are per week per property. Many properties promote an all inclusive price although some charge for extras such as bed linen, towels, heating and/or electricity. The Property description will detail any extra charges.

Definitions

Booked: A customer has committed to a holiday period by paying a deposit or the full amount for a rental period.

Reserved: When a property is not yet available to be booked, a customer can 'Reserve' the property in their name on a first come first served basis. When Cornish Traditional Cottages and the owner have agreed availability and pricing for your selected period we will contact you to let you know if you can then book the property in your name. A Reservation does not guarantee a booking because the owner has first right of refusal on all availability.
