About this property
Superbly converted barn, which nestles among rich green fields, just four miles from Porthleven, one of Cornwalls coastal hot spots. This beautiful grade II listed barn is part of a pretty rural farmstead. With reverse living the superb open plan living room and kitchen span the first floor with an incredible vaulted ceiling and wood burner creating a lovely homely feel. The ground floor bedrooms offer flexibility with one with king size bed with en-suite shower room, one twin and one with a zip and link bed offering option of a 6' super king bed or a twin. High quality furnishings, crisp linens and soft towels complete the picture. Outside is a garden with patio as well as a larger garden area opposite which is great for childrens play. Just over a mile away is a friendly relaxed pub with a good food menu, catering for all tastes. Nearby Porthleven is the largest working harbour in Cornwall where boats land their daily catch and visitors can take a boat trip and try and catch their own. There is a sandy beach and lots of fantastic restaurants - fast becoming a foodie mecca, bespoke shops, galleries, oh and ice cream to enjoy. Follow the South West Coastal Path for amazing cliff top walks, fabulous scenery for happy memories. Praa Sands just ten minutes away; a firm favourite with all age groups, the beach is home to a surf school and beach shop providing wetsuit and surfboard hire. This is a tranquil location not far from the coast, villages and towns.
Porthleven is one of south west Cornwalls hidden coastal gems, located near Helston famous for its annual Flora Dance Festival. Situated between Lizard Point and Lands End, Porthleven retains the feel of a traditional Cornish fishing village, enjoying uninterrupted views of the Atlantic Ocean and the beautiful Cornish coastline. The iconic clock tower sits on the harbour entrance and the pubs, shops, cafés and restaurants cluster around the historic picturesque inner harbour, where there is plenty of boating and marine activity.

Nicola
The only suprise was the super king linked bed, came with 2 single duvets rather that one large one, but actually worked well for us in the end. Jon and Carol were both lovely and nothing was too much trouble. Having the bucket in the property for kitchen scraps and allowing us to Feeding the pigs and goats was such a lovely bonus. Having a hallway/space for drying damp coats and boots was really useful for a March holiday and the great British Weather.

Wonderful sitting room with a great sense of space. So warm that the wood burner was hardly used. ( November ). The whole property was ideal for us and we will be returning soon.
