“What a gorgeous getaway location for some time to relax and take in the nature around.”

The setting is extremely peaceful and the barn is really comfortable. The dog seemed to be in paradise with a lovely big garden to roam about in and the field where she could let of some steam off lead. Note that the surrounding roads are narrow but quiet and with plenty of passing points.

“Mugwell barn has everything apart from enough space to air laundry.”

The standard of finish and the quality of the items for use are superb Lyn and David are excellent owners / hosts and give the impression that nothing is too much of a problem Perfect hideaway from the maddening crowd but also close to tourist spots if needed

“Absolutely fantastic stay!”

The owners were the perfect balance of welcoming and private! They added lots of extra little touches, even some Prosecco for my partners birthday - just so thoughtful! The location is brilliant for exploring and the barn is a really cozy place to come back to at the end of the day. Highly recommend, ticked every box for a relaxing week away.

“Mugwell Barn is absolutely lovely!”

We really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful quiet surroundings and great views from the patio and garden, lovely local walks and a great location to explore Cornwall and Devon. The barn is extremely comfortable and well appointed and had everything we needed. The hosts, Lyn and David were so welcoming and helpful and it was very kind of them to leave a bottle of wine, biscuits, bread, butter and milk for us on our arrival. We would definitely recommend the barn and would very much like to stay again. Our dog had a lovely time too! Thank you very much, Lyn and David.

“Well located, beautiful barn!”

I stayed for 3 nights in late February and enjoyed a wonderful weekend. The barn is super, well located for Cotehele, Buckland Abbey, Rame Head and numerous country walks to enjoy. The countryside is unspoilt, uncrowded, wonderfully green and near to Dartmoor. The barn is cosy, well equipped, log burner, comfy bed, great shower and fabulous patio with views. I would highly recommend this accommodation.

“Beautiful relaxing place”

Mugwell Barn is delightful. The barn itself, and the grounds have all been completed to a very high standard. So well equipped, the best we have been in ( and we have been in a few self catering places!). Views were incredible, so peaceful, it's a pleasure to sit and listen to the birdsong morning , noon and night. The bed is large and comfortable ( we slept well every night).Good pubs nearby, although you do need a car. The lanes surrounding are narrow, but plenty of passing areas, and the banks and hedgerows are so pretty in the spring. We really enjoyed the week, the owners have worked incredibly hard, and though onsite, they were very unobtrusive. The welcome and the homemade scones, clotted cream and jam got us off to a fantastic start. Very reasonably priced for the week we went, would easily go again.

“Peace and quiet by the bucketload”

Perfect, modern, refurbished barn tucked away in a quiet little haven of Cornwall. Lovely comfortable bed and we sleep on a Vi-Spring at home, so are very fussy! The owners were discreet and provided lots of little extra touches (scones, clotted cream, jam, orange juice, milk, bread, butter and a bottle of wine) - not necessary but very welcome additions. Never stayed at a rented holiday home that was so well equipped with the inclusion of kitchen roll, loo rolls, air freshener, dishwasher tabs - you name it - it was provided. Wonderful walks nearby, don't miss Louis's cafe up by Kit Hill. All in all had a superb week in this little gem of a find which I recommend greatly.

“Peaceful”

Spent a lovely week down in Cornwall & found this cottage to be a peaceful & tranquil retreat. The view from the patio is stunning & sitting out there in the morning or on a warm evening was glorious. It should be noted that as the cottage is quite remote the roads to it are little more than single tracks which caught us by surprise, as the hedge rows are tall you loose a sense of direction it took us a few goes to find it even with sat nav. The cottage itself was everything we had hoped for, well equipped & an ideal base for two. We would recommend taking a few good DVD' s to watch when it's dark outside & a good supply of food to save trips to the nearest supermarkets which are a good 15 minute drive away.

“Beste Voraussetzung für einen Urlaub”

Wir waren zwei Wochen im Ferienhaus. Es ist wunderschön eingerichtet, besonders schön fand ich den Weber-Grill auf der Terrasse. Auch sonst ist alles für die Bequemlichkeit da. Sehr nett fand ich auch den Empfang mit einer Flasche Wein und dem berühmten cornish cream tea. Die Vermieter sind zwar zurückhaltend aber immer für einen da. Sowohl die Nord- als auch die Südküste sind schnell zu erreichen. Ein guter Ausgangspunkt um Cornwall zu erkunden. Empfehlenswertes Restaurant in der Nähe: Louis Tearooms. Für Frühstück und gute englische Küche.

About the location

LUCKETT

Callington is a Cornish market town, rich in mining heritage and overlooked by Kit Hill, the highest point in the area, donated to the people of Cornwall by Prince Charles to celebrate the birth of Prince William. From the top of Kit Hill there are fabulous views across south-east Cornwall as far as Plymouth Sound. Callington is set in the heart of the Tamar Valley, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and offers a good selection of shops, inns and cafes, as well as being the home of Ginsters Cornish pasties. A few miles away, the quaint village of Calstock clings to the steep banks of the river Tamar and is dominated by the splendid Calstock Railway Viaduct, a giant 11-arched stone construction supporting one of Britain’s most picturesque branch lines running through the Tamar Valley. Other interesting places along the river are Cotehele, a beautiful historic house and gardens owned by the National Trust with a small quay and inn, and Morwellham Quay, a theme park that staged a living history production for the BBC and where visitors can explore the rich mining heritage and watch blacksmiths, potters and craftsmen at work. The pannier market town of Tavistock is only nine miles from Callington and is well worth a visit on your way to a day’s walk on Dartmoor. A splendid base to explore south Cornwall and West Devon.

Note: Spring water. Four steps down to main entrance (alternative side entrance without steps). Sofa bed for alternative sleeping.
