“A very quiet and comfortable p[ace, take a torch if you go out at night.”

Amazing night sky weather permitting. The large field next door is ideal to exercise your dogs or children.

- Mr Cheetham, October 2021
Mr Hubbard September 2021

“Excellently located property for a relaxing holiday and a good base for visiting the Devon and Cornwall coastal areas.”

Barn View was very well equipped and furnished. The enclosed patio and adjacent field was perfect for our dog. Only 500 yards from the nearest pub, which is dog friendly and served good food.

- Mr Hubbard, September 2021
Mrs Jones August 2021

“Location very comfortable.”

Home from home. We have already recommended to friends.

Mr Wood July 2021

“We had a wonderful stay at Barn view, very comfortable and well equipped, we loved the walk down to the beach perhaps the hike back up less so!”

The cottage would benefit from having a sturdy washing line and an indoor airer but all in it was a fabulous place to stay.

- Mr Wood, July 2021
Mrs Radcliffe October 2020

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

- Mrs Radcliffe, October 2020
Mr Ede September 2020

“A beautifully maintained property in a peaceful and quiet location on the edge of the Devon/Cornwall border.”

Great space for all of our dogs inside the property and outside in a private field adjacent to the barn. So good was the experience that I booked again for the following year. Looking forward to it in a couple of weeks time!

- Mr Ede, September 2020
Mrs Stockwell September 2020

“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.

Mrs Mansfield-smith August 2020

“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. Property Owner

“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.”

- Mr Brimacombe, February 2020
Mr Poole September 2019

“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.

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.
