Welcome to Our Rural, Eco-Friendly Cornish Barn!
A stunning luxury holiday home with 'Wow' factor!
This recently renovated, 150 year old barn conversion has been stylishly remodelled to offer a contemporary home from home. It is one of seven unique properties in this small, high end development, built around a communal courtyard setting, maintained to the highest standards.
Exposed beams and high ceilings throughout give a feeling of space. This single storey, eco-friendly barn offers a warm and cosy year-round retreat with wood burning stove, mood lighting and underfloor heating from a ground source heat pump.
The barn is set in a peaceful location, yet is within minutes of the South Cornish Coast (The Cornish Riviera). Read our online guestbook to see why our guests repeatedly choose to stay here.
The Milking Parlour offers a perfect bolthole to be able to relax and unwind, yet provides easy access to fantastic beaches, the South West Coastal Path, (SWPC), local attractions, shopping and all that this magnificant county has to offer.
Enjoy the tranquility of the countryside yet within easy access of beaches, shopping and tourist hotspots.
A great base for a weekend or short break or a longer holiday for:
- Couples looking for a romantic retreat - honeymoons, anniversaries and special celebrations
- Family holidays - 3 x king bedrooms with flexibility (zip and link beds can convert to twins); travel cot, highchair and bed guard available
- Walking holidays - Walks from the door using permissive access through livestock farmland; plus easy access to SW coastal path, The Camel Trail, Trelissick Gardens, Luxylan Valley and so much more
- Cycling holidays - Outdoor hot/cold shower for cleaning bikes and dogs (and humans if required!)
- For the less mobile - Open plan, single story living, wide hallway, wet room, same level access and parking (Note there is a single step in the property and there are no handrails but guests with mobility limitations have enjoyed a relaxing break here)
- Those looking for somewhere special yet with Eco-friendly credentials (own water source, water treatment plant, biodigestor, ground source heat pump)
- Dog friendly - bring up to 2 well behaved dogs if accompanied by well-behaved humans
A perfect place to unwind whatever the occasion!

What Guests Say
What a find! This place is just stunning - the photos don’t do it justice! It's been designed to such a high standard with everything you could need. The area is so quiet and peaceful - just the birds chirping and the cows mooing from the barn across the road. We’ve all had such a lovely time away - even though we don't live that far away it felt like we were somewhere totally different. Caroline was such a lovely host and kept me well up to date as necessary. 10000% recommend a stay here!
