Had everything you could possibly need! A lot of thought has gone into Robby Barn. A lovely unexpected welcome basket on arrival too. Very cosy and comfortable living area and the bedrooms too with well equipped en-suites. The village the barn is set in is rural and beautiful and plenty of the well known Cornwall landmarks within reach, a car is needed to do this or simply chill out at the barn with lovely scenic walks nearby. A barn for everyone! We were 3 adults and a 2yr old and stayed for a week. Would love to return some day

The kitchen utensils are the bare minimum and I don't think that putting knives into a container filled with Oasis is hygenic. There is no shower mat. I reported that the heated towel rail is not working and the basin in the bathroom was not draining properly. To my knowledge neither of these things were fixed while I was there. Overall lighting is poor, particularly in the kitchen.

It was clean, and equipped with all that you needed. Lovely welcome basket full of goodies was great. Thank you! Only one thought was possibly have more seating outside and not just the picnic table. But that's just us being picky, didn't have an impact on a great stay.
