Snaptrip says
Mynheer Farm Bowji is highly praised for its cleanliness, spacious layout, and attentive hosts. Guests appreciate the well-equipped facilities, comfortable accommodation, and the property's suitability for exploring Cornwall. The welcoming cream tea is a delightful touch, though not guaranteed for every stay.
Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers consistently mention the exceptional cleanliness of the property, describing it as 'spotless' and 'immaculate', indicating a very high standard maintained by the hosts.
The property's location is frequently noted as perfect for accessing various parts of Cornwall, with guests appreciating the peaceful setting and proximity to local amenities.
Comfort is highlighted with references to spacious rooms, large showers, and comfortable beds, although one negative comment about a bed and sofa suggests a slight deduction from an otherwise perfect score.
Facilities are well-regarded, with mentions of a fully equipped kitchen, powerful showers, and additional amenities. However, a single complaint about a noisy washing machine and a small TV suggests room for minor improvements.
The hosts' thoughtfulness is evident through the provision of a cream tea on arrival and attention to detail. While these gestures are highly appreciated, it is politely noted that such gifts are not guaranteed for all stays.

Ju and Pete were friendly and welcoming and not intrusive at all. The Bowji was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for a very lovely stay and perfectly located to explore lots of beautiful parts of Cornwall. Next time I will remember to book the weather aswell.
