Charming Grade 2 listed Swallows Barn provides a tranquil retreat for two. Nestled on the edge of 2.5 acres of beautiful gardens and parkland, the barn is ideally located, with both Cornwall's north and south coasts easily accessible by car. The space Inside, the barn exudes comfort. The lounge features a log burner, perfect for curling up in front of after a day of exploring, along with underfloor heating for added warmth. The barn has one spacious bedroom, offering a restful and serene space for a peaceful night’s sleep. The super king size zip and link bed can be configured as a twin on request.

The luxurious bathroom is elegantly designed, with both a freestanding tub and a stylish shower. It also features underfloor heating and a heated towel radiator, ensuring you stay warm and cozy, whether you're starting your day or unwinding after an adventure.
The grounds feature meadows, ancient trees, two serene ponds and a gently flowing stream, creating a peaceful haven for nature lovers. A private patio within the shared garden provides stunning panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, ideal for relaxing with a glass of wine or dining al fresco. In front of the barn is a circular gravel drive with plenty of parking for guests.
The barn is ideally located, with both Cornwall's north and south coasts easily accessible by car, allowing you to explore stunning beaches and picturesque fishing villages. Sightseeing highlights such as Cotehele House, Saltram, Anthony House, Castle Drogo, the Eden Project, Fowey, Polperro, The Lost Gardens of Heligan and Tavistock are all within easy reach. For outdoor enthusiasts, the area offers a variety of country walks through the rolling countryside of the Tamar Valley Area of Natural Beauty, Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor as well as along the spectacular South West Coast Path, making it the perfect base for both peaceful retreats and active holidays. This delightful escape combines rustic heritage with contemporary comforts, offering an unforgettable experience amidst nature and adventure.
Guest access The gardens and parkland extend to over 2.5 acres. Our guests may occasionally encouter our gardener and the owners Gerrit and Judy tending to the gardens. Other things to note Please note the narrow lane leading up to the barn is occasionally used by the local farmer and his tractor and very light local traffic. The meadows are on a steep slope hence sturdy footwear is essential when exploring the grounds. Wellies are recommended. The gravel drive and parking in front of the barn is shared with the house.

We stayed for 6 nights at Swallows Barn and could not fault any aspect of it. Gerrit and Judy were very helpful and friendly hosts, yet despite living next to the barn we were never really aware of their presence. The barn is beautifully appointed and has everything you could need for the stay. The location is wonderfully quiet and the surrounds are picture perfect. It’s also a very good location to access anywhere in Cornwall and south Devon. Can’t recommend this place highly enough and we would love to come back and stay again in the future.
