"Incredible, idyllic and inspiring."
Thank you to Adi and Sue for creating a wonderful slice of relaxation.
The location is fantastic, a working farm nestled amongst cornish countryside, the only nosy neighbours are Adi's sheep and lambs who trot over to say hello.
We (Me, my wife, our 4 year old and 6 month old) stayed in Skiber Coombe and the converted barn is finished to a high standard. It is clean, modern with traditional features and decorated with a nod to the rural charm of the county.
The immediate grounds also feature an indoor swimming pool overlooking fields and a valley, games room for kids with table tennis, table football and a mini snooker table.
There is a wealth of activity, history and sites of interest within a short drive and Adi and Sue have curated a folder full of suggestions. There are wonderful walks, pubs and places to eat nearby or source food to cook back at the place.
Speaking of whom, they go above and beyond with the personal touch, from the homemade lemon drizzle cake (using eggs from the chickens on the farm!), to sharing insights on cider, to Adi knocking on the door and inviting us to come and watch the the two lambs of the final Ewe to give birth for the year, walking shortly after being born and seeing their first steps. It was magical.
Our only regret is not being able to stay longer.
Cheers Adi and Sue and we will be back.

"We had a wonderful stay at Adi & Sue's cottage."
The home-made delicious lemon cake on arriving was a lovely touch. The cottage is very well equipped. The beds are comfortable. The log fire was perfect for the cooler evenings. And the swimming pool and games room were brilliant. My grandson made extremely good use of them every day, at least twice a day. Our hosts were welcoming, friendly and helpful. A 10/10 ***** holiday
Thank you for your review
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us - hope to welcome you again soon

"This was a beautiful cottage in idyllic landscape."
We felt welcomed (cake and flowers in the kitchen), warm, comfortable, and impressed with the attention to detail (eg pure wool throws everywhere). We were delighted and plan to return.
We look forward to welcoming you again soon

"This is a great place to stay for exploring north or south Cornwall."
It’s a very quiet location in beautiful countryside down some very narrow country lanes. The accommodation is comfortable and well appointed. The games room and Swimming pool is an added bonus. An absolute luxury to be able to swim a few lengths in the heated pool before breakfast. If we are ever holidaying in the area again, Skiber Coombe will be my first choice.

"We would recommend Skiber Coombe."
We really enjoyed our stay. So peaceful and picturesque. The swallows, swooping between the trees and the farm; a delightful sight. The owners are very welcoming, but respected our privacy though they were friendly and there if we needed them for local information. The scrumptious lemon drizzle cake, made with their own eggs, was a big hit with our grandchildren….and us! Skiber Coombe is tucked away between hills and is a particularly safe environment for children to play freely. Our grandchildren loved the swimming pool, games room and the football area in the field. Plus we all enjoyed the river walk. General opinion was, we’ll be back!

"Gorgeous setting, hidden down narrow country lanes, we used Skiber Coombe as our base to walk the Tamara Way."
Very comfortable house, it was lovely to come back to towelling robes and a dip in the swimming pool! Well set up kitchen, comfy beds, and nice lounge area. Adi and Sue were friendly helpful hosts and we were sorry not to spend more time exploring the area.
Thank you very much for your review and kind words. Come back and walk some of our spectacular coastal path!

"The holiday home is set in beautiful countryside."
It's spacious, well furnished and equipped and clean and tidy throughout. The pool and games rooms are a valuable added extra, and our children very much enjoyed chopping logs in the yard for the fire, which warmed the living room really well. We enjoyed our stay at Skiber Coombe very much. Adi & Sue were always on hand, when we needed anything, and were sorry to have had to leave earlier than planned to attend to a major burglary at our home. We will try to book this accommodation, when we visit Cornwall again.
Thank you for booking with us and we’re pleased that you enjoyed your stay

"Had a wonderful time in this tranquil and peaceful setting."
Away from any noise and distractions the pool was excellent for teaching my children to swim. Having it to ourselves for large parts of the day was a bonus.
The cottage itself has been sympathetically restored to a high standard. We loved our stay and made some great memories with the family.

"Beautiful cottage on a beautiful farm."
The sheep and lambs were adorable! Adi was kind enough to allow us to see the tame lambs which was amazing.
Our children absolutely loved the swimming pool.
Turning up to the cottage to find a fresh baked lemon drizzle cake and milk for our tea was a beautiful touch. (Cake was lush too!)
A suggestion from us would be to maybe share a pin for the location of the property or use the what 3 words app as we found it difficult to find the property at first.
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay and thank you for your kind comments and suggestions
Do come again and we will ensure that you have the what 3 words location to find us more easily
