Carminow Barn

The property smelt really damp and there was actual mould on the walls.

There were steps to get to the property, the garden was overgrown so much so you couldnt access the ONE tatty garden chair that was there. The shower cubicle had a large step up to it. The BBQ was rusty and dirty. The wifi didnt work properly. The owners didnt answer the phone when i rang them.

Smaller than expected.

We booked a single level property with no steps as my wife is waiting for a knee replacement. The shower was a problem as it had a rather large step to get in and the shower door did not open fully. The building felt damp possibly due to no extractor in the bathroom and also the leaky gutter outside which did not have a downpipe so was soaking the wall. We had rain most of our stay. ( I did contact the caretaker and reported it)

Très jolie chambre et une très bonne accueil avec scones, prosecco.

..le jardin est trop sympa. On était ravis.

Outstanding all round.

Loved the fact the gardens were all enclosed so our Molly (dog) could run around with no way of escape. Everything was there and more… like every sort of cooking facility’s and the bed was so comfortable. Will definitely book again

Fantastic property, kitted out very well and lots of extra touches which were appreciated.

Garden area and summerhouse a real asset and so good when bringing a do along. Few minor points to improve stay: Fix guttering - end by wardrobe some water getting in when heavy rain. Outdoor lights by door not workung. Shower door very stiff to close perhaps replace with easier concertina design. For added floor space remove 2 dining chairs not needed. Add information folder to include wifi code, instructions on appliances & local walks/eateries. Sounds like a lot, but not, all easily done to make it an absolutely perfect stay. Experience atm excellent though and so many things have been thought of.

This property and location was perfect for our stay!

Do not want to be negative but " less is more"......2 seater table maybe to create bit more space. Maybe mention garden room in advert we thought it belonged to someone else, so was a very pleasant surprise! Overall ideal...... definitely would come again.

Beatiful setting and gardens The outdoor wooden room very comfy chairs great to sit in and read .

Very comfy bed.Overlong curtains caused an accident. .No comfortable chair To sit in to watch tv only wicker iron dining chairs covered by fluffy white sheepskins. After a day out I enjoy watching TV from a comfy chair and about 8 some nibbles.Idont.like watching TV from bed or eating snacks inbed but understand this is personal 7 sheepskins in an area you approximately 35 ft.by 10 feet to accommodate sleeping area dining and cooking including sidetables bookcase and bedside tables so small.Despite leaving switch on longer no water sufficiently hot to wash greasy dishes kept running cold as it did in bathroom sink.3 cupboards of China one narrow cupboard for food The shoser came apart on day 3 when I tried to cleansoap dish.slide doordoes not slide so water fromShower gets through. quite a space.storage.smallfridge although room for a taller one.Food storage difficult for 7 days yet alone nine. Cooking a faff as no hob or oven set up apart from microwave oven which was not cooking through properly have to set up equipment and store back. Again personal choice I'd provide Cornish scones from post office in pack rather than Lidle nationwide ones.A welcome binder would be really useful. Fresh flowers all around in garden but about five poor plastic plants in barn. Clothes washing difficult had to boil kettle for dishes and clothes couldnot find basket to carry clothes to line.

Compact, but generally pretty comfortable.

Ideal if what you are looking for is somewhere to sleep overnight while touring around the area. The local shop is fine for the essentials, we didn't get as far as the local pub but have heard good things about it from others. The bottle of Prosecco and the packet of scones with jam and clotted cream were a nice touch.

The property is in a great location, situated close to the coast and eg Eden.

It is almost next door to the well equipped shop, and reasonably close to the pub, where we had a good pub meal. The garden is lovely and the outdoor seating very welcome if the weather allows. We were delighted to find a generous cream tea waiting for us. However, we could not connect to the wi-fi, nor get the television to work properly, or the cooker, which although not essential were annoying.

The barn was set in a lovley and friendly location it was clean and everything was thought of for the stay were was a lovley little welcome afternoon tea on arrival that was lovley and I we are looking forward to going back and would highly recommend

Great little place everything you needed Very comfortable bed everything was fine Very nice garden local shop and pub

Thoroughly enjoy our break, the barn had amazing decor and all the facilities you needed, the gardens were well maintained and enjoyed the peace and quiet of the lovely village, post office and general store had everything you needed, run by friendly people and enjoyed their home made pasties !

Pub not too far away and food was superb especially their Sunday roast, would most definitely recommend the barn and of course Sykes cottages who never let us down, we have stayed in some amazing cottages, thank you
