“Amazing!!”

This cottage was everything we could have asked for. I went with my family and dogs and we love every minute. We have been 2 years running to this cottage and we would go back again! Felt as though you were at home. Super clean and cosy. Highly recommend.

“Fabulous, well equipped and very comfortable cottage, very dog friendly, nicest cottage we’ve been in for a long time .”

“From the moment we pulled up, we were made to feel very welcome by the Owner, Roy, who left us a welcome bottle of wine!”

The cottage ticked all the boxes and exceeded our expectations. It was in a remote area, but within walking distance of the lovely coast of Welcombe Bay. The cottage itself was a 'home from home' and the log burner was an added bonus. The cottage was clean and comfortable with everything we needed and our two doggies, Wilson (Vizsla) and Finn (Cockapoo) were over the moon to be allowed to run in the adjacent field, with stunning views across the valley and beyond. We also walked half a mile to the local pub 'The Old Smithy Inn' where we were made to feel welcome in the lovely setting of a thatched traditional pub. Overall, a lovely cottage, fantastic place to stay, highly recommended and just what the Doctor ordered!! Will definitely be visiting again, all being well.

“We booked for 4 adults and 2 children.”

Due to the corona virus only 3 of us were able to visit. Had all attended there would have been a problem with beds. Although the bed settee was to sleep two there was no bedding for it. I would not class this as a 6 bed holiday home. So slightly disappointed. There was a small patio which needed to be hosed down as there was dog poo remnants on it.

- Mrs Mansfield-smith, August 2020

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that linen for the sofa bed was not provided, this was an oversight by the housekeeper. The owner who lives on sight would have brought linen across had he been made aware of the situation. He would also have hosed down the small patio. Sykes owner relations

“Stayed at the barn during recent storms, very windy but comfortable, heating failed and owner Roy, Swifty got the issue resolved as quickly as he could.”

“Barn view the cottage is lovely- comfortable and clean, but nowhere in the listing does it state that there is building work on the site every week day.”

Our ‘peaceful’ retreat with the occasional passing tractor (stated in description) turned out to include a dumper truck, digger, chainsaw, several workers and their radio 5 days out of 7 so the idea of a restful week was kind of ruined a bit. If you’re intending on using the cottage as a base only and being out all day every day then great, but if you like to holiday at your own pace and itinerary then I would avoid until ALL of the building work is finished.

Mrs Swatman September 2019

“A lovely property, plenty of room.”

Great location for sight seeing. Quiet too. Ideal for dogs as outside area slabbed and secure. Would definitely stay there again

“The barn was lovely and was equipped really well, the only thing it didn’t have which was a minor issue was oven gloves.”

The location and setting was beautiful so couldn’t fault that at all. We’re were very disappointed when we arrived and there was dog poo in the terrace area off the kitchen, it wasn’t a pleasant start. There were some issues with the drains while we were there but the owner Sorted it for us quickly. It’s a lovely barn and we really enjoyed our stay there. The meadow over the back was great for the dogs to run around in and they had a whale of a time too.

Mr Trott May 2019

“Patio was full of weeds and thistles 18 inches high, there was a vase of dead tulips in the dining area, dish washer was full of dishes.”

- Mr Trott, May 2019
Mr Reilly May 2019

“Spacious, modern, clean and well-equipped cottage.”

Always nice to be able to drive right to the door for unpacking. Accepts dogs but doesn't smell of dog, which is good if you haven't got dogs yourself. Excellent location for access to the coast path without having to drive. Slightly weird being in a modern barn conversion in the midst of a rather overgrown farm setting with building works ongoing, but then lots of properties have their quirks. One suggestion would be to keep the weeds at bay which are invading the fenced patio area from the surrounding farm. We would be very happy to return.

“This was the 3rd time we have stayed at barn view, the cottage itself has gone down over the years but has got what you need, it is well equipped!”

Fairly comfortable, but the outside was absolutely disgusting! The gravel driveway was covered with dog poo!! We had a dog with us which we cleaned up after religiously! but we presumed it was the owners dog as it was allowed to soil the driveway I counted 6 piles as we left, there was no effort to clean up! And the smell was awful! We will not be going back!,

The property

This detached bungalow converted from barns is situated on a country lane between Welcombe hamlet and the South West Coast Path.

Half a mile from each, this is brilliant accommodation for walking or enjoying a peaceful haven.

You will feel right at home in the cosy sitting room with its traditional wood burner to snuggle up beside and a dining table for leisurely meals prepared in the well equipped kitchen with its door to the patio.

Peaceful nights in this tranquil spot are on the cards in the two comfortable bedrooms.

The big patio has a table and chairs for alfresco meals and you are welcome to walk dogs or play football in the meadow beyond.

The ancient thatched village pub is a great place for eating out and it is an enjoyable walk along a quiet road to get there – though do remember a torch if you are heading home in the dark.

Walkers will be in seventh heaven with the Coast Path so close and it gives you splendid views from cliff tops and a range of birds to spot.

If surfing is your game, head down to the cove beach at Welcombe Mouth to catch some good waves, or it isn't far to Bude and the huge sandy beach.

Barn View is an excellent location for exploring a dramatic coastline or recharging your batteries.
