“Everything was just as we expected.”

And Lynne and Dave. Were very thoughtful in the yummy scones and juices. Plus a few extras bought for us which was very helpful to us as I'm disabled. We had a great experience staying at the barn and would do it again. All you needed was there and the views the tranquillity. The only thing we thought it could do with is being better sign posted. As we got lost.

“What a find”

The barn is a delight in every way .Full marks to the architect who designed it very tasteful with all amenities at hand .Lynn and David were very friendly and the scones were delicious thank you Lynn now we have to go back on diet ! The pigs were fun to watch too. Our dog Mia enjoyed watching them and made friends with the neighbours dog .We found it a perfect base to travel to various places .It was great to come back to in the evening and sit in the garden and relax with views to die for .Would definitely come back just FABULOUS

“A wonderful stay at Mugwell Barn - welcoming hosts, beautiful location and lovely accomodation.”

Well worth it, we would love to stay again.
Miss Harris December 2018

“Stayed at Mugwell Barn over Christmas with my partner and our dog.”

A really, good location 35ish minutes to the North and South Cornwall coasts. We all had a lovely time, the cottage has some Christmas decorations up and we had some nice goodies (the scones were amazing) from Lyn and David. There are loads of places that are doggy friendly in the area and were recommended by David a walk about half a mile away from the cottage, along a river (the dog's favourite). Every evening we enjoyed in front of the log burner, and had a quiet Christmas in Cornwall. What more could you want?
Mrs Chambers-ward November 2018

“Great tranquil location with some excellent woodland walks.”

The property itself is amazing and has anything you could possibly need. Lynn and Dave the owners are extremely nice, friendly and very welcoming. Would definitely recommend.

“On our arrival, Indi the springer spaniel and I received a warm Cornish welcome matched only by a scrumptious home baked 2 scone jam/cream/butter combo a short while after settling in to the esthetically pleasing, cosy barn conversion.”

From the patio doors the property has a wonderful outlook across fields, (the first of which was 'ours') a small valley and more fields towards Kitt Hill on the horizon. As a dog owner, having access to a stock-proof fenced field a mere chickens stride away from the property was a fantastic resource which was gratefully utilised on a daily basis. With the hosts property and Mugwell Cottage standing in close proximity to the Barn, and being on-hand for any whim or eventuality, you would never have known this as our whole week was one of peace and tranquility.
Miss Collins August 2018

“We had a fabulous visit to Mugwell Barn in Luckett, Cornwall.”

The barn was a perfect little haven of peace and tranquillity. The hosts were extremely welcoming and the barn is maintained to an excellent standard. It was fully kitted out with everything we could possibly have needed during our stay. Our dog especially loved the 'dog field' where he was able to run around, safely secured away from any roads or farm animals! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and just wish we could have stayed for longer!
Mr Onions August 2018

“Beautiful setting.”

Accommodation as it states on the tin.Perfect!! Dog friendly. Welcome pack of home made scones,fresh cream and strawberry jam plus a bottle of wine ! Our sort of welcome pack. Amazing views from the lounge. Local dog friendly pubs. Visits at night from local foxes in the meadow. We will be back. Phil

“A wonderful location to be based at for trips to the north or south coast.”

The property has everything you will need and the hosts were very friendly and accommodating. I would score 11 out of 10 and will definitely be returning. For all of you who are about to stay at Mugwell Barn ..... enjoy.
Mr Collins July 2018

“The Barn is a wonderful conversion, super clean an cosy.”

The location and views are stunning, with easy access to all areas of Cornwall and Devon. The owners and their pets are helpful and accommodating and supplied us with some goodies for our stay. Highly recommended.

“This is our third lucky time booking with Skyes.”

..communication and booking an easy process We wanted a dog friendly accommodation ..that was our next consideration We wanted to stay on the Devon/Cornwall border..to see friends in both counties We like unusual looking properties. .with a history which was there with Mugwell Barn..a small barn conversion...for 2 A well equpped propery providing for all eventualities. Furnishings and fittings of high standard and quality Peaceful, tranquil surroundings...but easy access to coastline and cities if preferred..so we had a very varied time at Mugwell Barn for our week...even walked across country to the local pub Good communication with the owners Wine scones milk butter orange juice on arrival a bonus The general environment a real treat
Mr Onions May 2018

“The aspect and quietness.”

Freshly made scones,cream and strawberry jam plus a bottle of red wine on arrival. Perfect.
Mr Parker April 2018

“The location was fantastic for visits to North and South coasts.”

Plenty of local pubs and Callington has a decent Tescos store 10 minutes away. The barn is in an idyllic location with far reaching views of Dartmoor and across the valley. The interior is very tastefully appointed and to a high standard. We were greeted by Lyn the owner and had complimentary wine, bread, milk and scones and cream. They have also accumulated plenty of tourist information for guests to examine. For dog owners please be aware the barn does not have a secure garden as such so you will have to supervise at all times. There is a nice field immediately next to the patio and it was ideal for our 8 month puppy.

“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.
Mr A July 2015

“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.
