From the owner

A beautifully converted 300 year old Cornish barn. Available for holiday lets, located between Padstow and Newquay on the coast. It's a peaceful spot, for those that want space of their own, but is well-connected to everything you'd need.

Immaculate inside, with a spacious kitchen with everything you'd need, a lovely living room and dining space and a downstairs toilet. Upstairs, you'll find two wood-beamed bedrooms, one with a double bed and one with two single beds and a nicely finished bathroom. We provide bed and kitchen linen and a bath sheet per person.

There is also a delightful private garden, with a sunny terrace under a glass awning, patio table and chairs, and a BBQ for your use.

It's a light and airy space of your own in an unrivalled location on the North Cornish coast, which provides relaxation from the very start of your holiday.

Nearby, you'll find quaint Cornish pubs, like The Falcon and The Cornish Arms (run by Rick Stein). As well as fine dining at Jamie Oliver's Fifteen at Watergate Bay and Rick Stein's Seafood Restaurant in Padstow. Padstow is in fact just five miles away and has pubs, shops, restaurants and its beautiful bay and estuary. Hiring bikes to cycle The Camel Estuary is well worth doing.

Just across the road from Skiber An Hyli is a dramatic headland walk, with a secluded beach called Diggory. The nearest beach is Pothcothan, 1 mile away, which is ideal for families with its sandy stretch to the sea.

Very sorry but no smokers and no pets. Currently no wifi.

Lovely cottage conveniently located between Newquay & Padstow

Response from the owner
Thank you for your comments, regret the mobile signal is poor as it is in many parts of Cornwall. The road is busier in the high season but thankfully quiet for the rest of the year.
