Description

Sennen 2.7 miles.

Kernyk is a charming granite barn conversion set within the countryside at Trethewey near Porthcurno, offering an inviting retreat for couples looking for a rural escape close to Cornwall’s coastline and some of its finest beaches.

Set within one of the most westerly villages on mainland Britain, the property is well placed for exploring Cornwall’s dramatic coastline, beautiful beaches, and scenic walking routes, with a well‑behaved pet welcome to join the adventure.

Inside, the barn has been thoughtfully arranged to create a welcoming space to return to after days spent outdoors.

The sitting room provides a relaxing area to unwind, while the kitchen/diner is well equipped for preparing meals to enjoy together.

Exposed wooden roof beams in the king-size bedroom add character and charm, creating an inviting space to rest, served by a contemporary shower room with a walk-in shower.

A sofa bed in the sitting room offers additional flexibility for an extra guest on request.

Outside, a non-enclosed garden area with a bench provides a pleasant spot to sit and take in the surrounding countryside, ideal for morning coffee or evening relaxation.

The nearby village of Porthcurno boasts one of the most attractive beaches in Britain, the famous Minack Theatre and the PK Porthcurno Museum of Global Communications.

A bit further away, Sennen has a mile-long stretch of white sand, popular for surfing, coastal walks, and relaxed days by the sea, along with a surf school and a beach bar overlooking the shoreline.

Sennen is rich in history and character, the village features a medieval church, gallery, Iron Age fort, a small selection of shops, and a weekly farmers’ market at the community centre.

In the summer months, the beach becomes a lively focal point with live music, barbecues, and surfing competitions.

With countryside walks, sandy beaches, and coastal scenery all within easy reach, Kernyk provides a memorable base for discovering this striking corner of Cornwall.

We had a lovely time during the heat wave so the thick walls helped keep us cool.

The welcome pack was very useful thank you. The cottage was very close to some great beaches and pubs by car

Booked last minute for a 3 night break.

Accommodation easy to find with directions given. It waswas spotlessly clean and well equipped. Welcome pack was much appreciated, thank you. Within easy reach of bus stops, making it ideal for coastal path walking. Will definitely recommend. Thank you for a great holiday. Sharon , Paul and two happy doggies.

The cottage was very cold and damp on arrival, we put the heaters on when we got there but it took all evening to warm up.

It would have been great if someone could have left them on for us. There was lots of broken crockery, chipped mugs plates and bowls. The rug in the living room was meant to be green, but was actually a very dirty worn brown colour. The curtain rails in the living room are broken. The living room is very cold and draughty there are gaps big enough below the living room window to see outside. The bathroom blind doesn't work either. Overall I was very disappointed in the accommodation it seemed very unloved.
