About this property

All on one level, this beautifully restored barn is just a short drive from the famous long sandy beaches of the north Cornish coast, With original beams and exposed granite walls, this traditionally decorated and furnished home-from-home provides a most comfortable, peaceful sanctuary to return to after long days exploring the coast.

This fabulous single-level barn conversion, situated in the quiet village of St. Minver, offers the perfect stay in North Cornwall for its guests. Sleeping six over three gorgeous bedrooms with space for up to two dogs, this property is ideal for families or groups of friends looking for a holiday close to the coast. With a section of the barn designed by an in-house architect, this holiday home has wonderful social spaces and a unique blend of the traditional and the contemporary.

The property, which has a sunny garden with a patio and even a table tennis shed and dedicated spot for playing Boule, is spacious and inviting. Vaulted ceilings and original wood beams in the kitchen diner create a fantastic space for enjoying sociable meals; cook up a storm in the country-style kitchen and dine at the table before retiring to the sofa. Exposed granite walls in the bright lounge remind you of this property’s original use; open up the doors to the garden on warmer days, or light the wood burner in the evenings to get cosy. Kids will love the games room with bean bags and table football. There is a traditional bathroom with hand-held shower over the bath and there’s also a wet room. The three bedrooms, a super-king-size which can be made up as a twin on request, a twin and bunk room suitable for children all have tranquil, neutral decor and large windows to take in countryside views.

Kids will love a trip to Trevathan Farm (3 miles), while older children may prefer a visit to Rock (2 miles) where you can go windsurfing, paddleboarding and more. Book a table at Rick Stein’s famous restaurant in Padstow (13 miles) or visit charming Port Isaac (5.5 miles), known as the location for ITV’s Doc Martin.

    Wonderful cottage in a beautiful location. Well equipped and the most comfortable beds. Large enclosed and secure gardens at the front and back of property, secure for dog. Owner had left lots of welcomed extra bits, including cleaning products, dishwasher tablets, tea towels, tea bags, doggy bags, dog treats, spices, salt and pepper and milk, and fresh flowers on the table. Approximately 5-10 minutes from beaches (Polzeath and those at Rock), 25 minutes to Padstow.
