“Perfect cottage for 2 people plus dogs.”

Easy well planned ground floor layout, fantastic comfy large bed, superb bathroom great hot water pressure. Well fitted modern kitchen, very comfortable sofa and chair, stylish easy to use wood burner, big flat screen TV. Ideal enclosed garden for dogs. Very quiet and peaceful, convenient location for wonderful Praa Sands beach (£1 coins needed for parking everywhere). The best cottage we've stayed in.

“Excellent cottage with everything you could want, good garden if you have dogs but not dog proof.”

Post code and instructions to cottage are not very good

“Overall we were very happy with Sampson Barn and really hope to come back soon.”

The location, layout, standard and cleanliness of the barn was excellent. I want to say all was perfect and also offer some observations that could have made our stay even better - this is only for us of course and may not apply to others - therefore, by making suggestions, I would contradict my perfect comment. Observations are below and certainly not criticisms: 1) Although very comfortable the settee is on the small side - I like to get my feet up sometimes and the small settee and absence of any footstools had us moving kitchen chairs into living room to put feet up 2) We did not use the washing machine, but missed a dishwasher raising the question whether a dishwasher would be a better option than the washing machine? 3) One of our dogs is lively and nervous and was able to jump onto the garden wall and potentially get over - this was not an issue as it was so quiet, but had there been more people around he may have got over (this is more to do with his condition than anything else). This was solved by always supervising him and often putting him on the lead. We understand further fencing would impact on the view, but wonder whether a role of wire would be a halfway measure?

“The cottage was perfect for a comfortable and enjoyable holiday, in what proved to be a stormy January week.”

We were very impressed by the excellent facilities in the cottage and the high level of cleanliness. The local information provided was excellent and helped us to plan some lovely local outings. It really was a home from home.

“Leave the world behind!”

Currently spending the week here at Sampson Barn. Located in Trescowe, it's tucked away behind another house off a rarely used road meaning absolutely nobody ever walks past and allows for perfect isolation from the rest of the world. The cottage itself is very well planned and extremely spacious, it's also very very clean and well equipped. Well behaved dogs also allowed and ours thoroughly enjoyed the log burner. Thought we'd be able to do more walks from the door but found this not to be the case. However we found an amazing App call iWalk Cornwall with loads of fantastic pinpoint walks with smartphone guidance. There is almost zero phone signal here (we're on EE) but cottage does have Wi-Fi. TV is just about big enough to see from the very comfy sofa and has Freesat only. No kind of online viewing available so bring an iPad or a book with you! Would definitely recommend and has been one of the best cottages/barns we've stayed at.

All on one floor, the accommodation is spacious and thoughtfully laid out.

Off the hallway, you have a smart bathroom with bath and separate double shower, a dreamy kingsize bedroom and at the far end a wonderfully welcoming open plan living space and kitchen with dining area that boasts french doors to the garden and a fantastic wood burning stove.

The lawned garden is enclosed by a low-level wall and fencing allowing peaceful relaxation after a busy day exploring.Stretch your legs along the various footpaths from the rural spot in Trescowe, or jump in the car to see some of the beautiful coves along the south west coast between Mounts Bay and Porthleven.

For true seaside lovers, why not hop on the branch line train from nearby St Erth and while away a day or two in St Ives where traditional Cornish charm meets upmarket eateries and shops, with some of the most beautiful sandy beaches around West Cornwall.

Guests at Sampson Barn will not be disappointed by the variety on offer from this peaceful, rural hideaway home.

About the location

PRAA SANDS

Marazion 4.5 miles ; Helston 6 miles ; Porthleven 5 miles

The village of Praa Sands sits on the south coast in between Helston and Marazion. Praa Sands is known for its mile-long sandy beach and excellent surfing conditions. There is a bar/restaurant overlooking the beach – the perfect spot for lunch with a view or sunset drinks. Praa Sands is also home to a Golf and Country Club, from where the most wonderful sea vista can be enjoyed whilst you play. Just inland from the beach is Pengersick Castle, the tower of which dates back to the 16th century. It is said that Pengersick is haunted, and that the ghost of a monk has been seen wandering the grounds! The house at Pengersick is rumoured to be the birth place of John Carter, the self styled King of Prussia and a tunnel which leads from the house to the beach was apparently once used by smugglers. There are supermarkets and other retail stores in Penzance (8 miles) and Helston (6 miles).
