“The cottage was quite cold, it would have nice to have had more efficient heating.”

The kitchen was dark, insufficient lighting, also one of the lights wasn't working, in fact, a lot of the lights had no light bulbs. The cleanliness was average. Wifi would be beneficial. Probably wouldn't stay there again, unless these points were rectified.

Thank you for taking the time to leave this feedback. We do take this very seriously and have given careful consideration to the points you have raised. We have now replaced all the heaters in the property and the light in question has been repaired. We are also pleased to say that we have a new housekeeper, who is keen to ensure that all our guests experience a high standard of cleanliness in the property. A close eye will be kept on the lightbulbs following your comments. With regard to the WiFi, we understand that Kenegie Manor are in the process of providing WiFi around the site, and we hope to provide this in the future. Notwithstanding, we hope that you enjoyed your time at Long Barn Cottage. - Sykes owner relations

“At this time of Covid 19 , as everything has to be booked online for all activities even food it would be helpful to have Wifi included in the price at Long Barn Cottage.”

Also a recommendation for really good resturants and takeaways. We had a great time and enjoyed all the extra touches of fresh milk, tea, sugar & coffee.

“We have had a lovely, relaxing week in the peaceful Kenegie Manor.”

The comfortable Long Barn Cottage has everything you need. There are plenty of spectacular coastal walks and amazing gardens in the area to keep you busy for weeks. We look forward to coming back again in the future.

“Arriving late it was great to find tea, coffee, milk and biscuits left for us.”

A bottle of wine and flowers was a lovely addition. Having bar snacks and a mini shop on site was also useful. There was also a pub in Gulval which had a good menu. The cottage had everything you needed and was very warm and comfortable. If the garden had been fully enclosed I would have felt happier about sitting on the patio with the dog. Lots of lovely places to visit nearby and we found the Cornish people exceptionally friendly and helpful.

“Cottage clean and tidy, facilities good.”

Did smell damp but it is a stone cottage. Bed not the most comfortable It would be great if cottages could provide a j-cloth so you can keep the kitchen clean

“It's a lovely cottage with lots of extras inside .”

There was a lovely welcome gift on arrival and the cupboards were full of anything you would need for a stay . It's quite roomy and comfortable with good parking out the back with access from the back doors. Previous reviews say there's no phone reception and bad tv reception but we didn't have a problem with either. On one occasion we had to stand outside to make a call but that was the only time. We used it for our base to explore the area and found it comfortable and convenient. It is located on a complex so you are very close to the amenities with the pool and club house a stones throw away. Would recommend to families and singles.

“There were a couple of flies in the ointment.”

Firstly, here was no contact number for the owners so we couldn't let them know of any problems. Secondly, it stated that there wasn't w-fi at the cottage so we weren't expecting any but the info should also state that there's no mobile phone signal either so that potential customers can make an informed decision as to whether they can risk spending time in a cottage with no contact with the outside world at all. Thirdly, there was a TV but no aerial so the only option was to watch DVDs. Fourthly, the toilet had been slotting into a gap at the foot of the shower unit but there wasn't really room for it, so the addition of a large porcelain toilet roll holder at the side of the loo made it necessary for the user to body swerve around it to use the facilities. My disabled mum found it difficult to use. Finally, although I understand and accept that we were required to vacate the cottage by 10am, we were practically ushered out at 10 o'clock on the dot. As I said, mum is disabled and had rather a bad nights sleep so we were running about half an hour late but I figured there would be a built in buffer of an hour or so just in case of problems but no, the owners were knocking on the door at 10 am precisely. It slightly tainted, what had been; a great holiday.

The property

Nestled in the grounds of the peaceful Kenegie Manor holiday resort just outside Penzance, this comfortable barn conversion provides great-value family holidays in vibrant west Cornwall.

Surrounded by countryside yet just a short drive from the waterfront, Long Barn Cottage enjoys the best of both worlds – with sea glimpses and views across to iconic St Michael’s Mount from the shared gardens.

The pristine and well-equipped kitchen with utility offers plenty of space to get creative at meal times, and leads through to the cosy, open plan sitting/dining area with wood burner-style fire.

From here, French doors lead out on to a sheltered, private patio; an ideal spot for a morning coffee or evening tipple.

Two restful bedrooms offer a good night’s sleep after a long day of exploration.

Designed very much with the family holiday in mind, the Kenegie Manor resort offers plenty to keep its guests busy, with unlimited use of the onsite indoor heated swimming pool, sauna and tennis courts for all.

There is also a seasonal bar/restaurant.

The local area has much to offer, too; enjoy a leisurely stroll along Penzance promenade or take a dip in the refurbished Jubilee Pool, Cornwall’s much-celebrated Art Deco seawater lido.

In Penzance town you will find an array of galleries, shops and restaurants, and St Michael’s Mount and the open-air Minack Theatre are just a short drive away.

Perfectly located for discovering all that this fascinating part of Cornwall has to offer, Long Barn Cottage is an ideal family holiday home throughout the year.

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.
