  • "Excellent base for Penzance and round about."

    .. beautiful barn conversion and well equipped. Easy walk to local pub and some good running routes from the doorstep on very quiet local roads. For improvement, we would have liked nicer sheets and pillows, but bed was very comfortable and we had a great stay.

  • "We absolutely loved Apple Blossom Barn."

    What a beautiful property and location. We felt very safe and comfortable even in the high winds. Lovely and warm and cosy. The only fault we found was that the tin opener didn't work, so we bought you a new one. Thank you so much for letting us stay

  • "Superb accommodation with quality fittings and furnishings."

    Only points to consider to improve safety, shower cubicle needs handrail and shelf for gels lotions etc. The shower flooring can be quite slippy despite small shower mat and older customers such as ourselves need to feel safe. Owners extremely helpful nothing is to much trouble, they should be very proud of what they offer

The property provided private parking along side and the views of the wooded area and the sea from the velux windows was lovely. We would love to stay here again in the future

    It was impeccably clean & very bright airy property that met all our expectations & requirements. Owners Heidi & John were available if required. They were very approachable & considerate. Would definitely recommend this property as it is one of the best we have ever stayed in. The only problem we experienced was finding the property & would suggest the direct route of using the B3311 from Penzance for future guests.

    Just back from a 10 day stay. Such a beautiful setting and very comfortable accommodation. The bed is amazing we had the best sleeps so comfortable but lovely with the door open to hear the birds early in the morning. We walked into Penzance for the ferry to the Isles of Scilly and also along the coast to Mousehole. Also walked to St Michaels Mount. The village has a great pub loved the Korev Cornish Lager and watching the cars negotiate the junction outside the pub. Haydee and John have an amazing barn and the welcome pack was also brilliant especially the apple juice from their orchards. We also had beautiful cornflowers and potatoes freshly harvested from the farm to enjoy. We loved our stay and want to return again soon. Thank you so much for one of the best holidays we have had.

    The west facing patio was warm and had far reaching views over Mounts Bay. The interior was light and well designed with a log burning stove that was very efficient on the cooler Spring evenings. Apple Blossom was ideally placed for visiting local beaches, accessing the coastal footpath and both the National Trust and private gardens of Cornwall. The Tremenheere Sculpture Park was a little gem and within walking distance using the St Michael’s Way.

    The owners of the property, Haidee and John, could not have done more to make our stay so enjoyable. The property was spotlessly clean on arrival. The bed extremely comfortable. Kitchen had all that we needed for the week. We didn’t use either the oven or dishwasher. (Personally we would have found a washing machine far more beneficial than a dishwasher). The one observation we would make is that the mezzanine level of the bedroom could be difficult for anyone with mobility issues especially as the bathroom is on the ground floor.

About the location

PENZANCE

St Ives 8 miles. Helicopter to Isles of Scilly - 30 minutes

Penzance hosts Golowan, the Midsummer Carnival, and The Literary Festival. There are also The Exchange, Newlyn and Penlee Art Galleries. One of Cornwall’s most popular holiday areas is the spectacular sweep of Mount’s Bay, from the cliffside fishing village of Mousehole through Penzance and around to beautiful Marazion, the coastline hides a wealth of sandy beaches, rocky coves as well as winding village streets and other places to visit and explore. Connected by a causeway to the shore at Marazion is the National Trust’s stunningly beautiful St Michael’s Mount with its hilltop castle and Mediterranean gardens. Walk across at low water and take one of the ferry boats back when the tide is up. Penzance with its winding streets, shops, clubs, restaurants and harbour is a must as it is the jumping-off point for day trips to the Isles of Scilly as well as being the harbor. The South West Coast Path passing through Penzance winds its way along the clifftops towards Land’s End. On the way, stop off for a coffee and a rest at beautiful Lamorna Cove, explore the open air Minack Theatre and marvel at the cliffs as you approach Gwennap Head. A stunning walk for those seeking solitude, exercise and some of the UK’s best coastal scenery. Penzance is the perfect holiday base. Ideally placed for exploring this land of Celtic myth and legend and with enough to do and see in the immediate area to keep all the family occupied.
