    “We had an excellent stay in Swallow Barn - which actually has real live Swallows flying around in the sky above!”

    ! Perfect size for the two of us with absolutely everything we needed, including good Wifi and parking.. The garden is immaculate and the views across the valley are spectacular. The owners, Kay & Frank, were the perfect hosts. A brilliant holiday. Thank you.

The property

About 2 miles from St Kew, tucked quietly away on a little hedgerow lane 400 yards back from a pretty, wooded stretch of the A39, a semi-detached cottage all on one level, converted from part of a courtyard of handsome Victorian barns.

To the front, parking and gravelled approach; at the back, an enclosed, south-facing, shrub/flower-filled garden with paved patio (table/chairs, awning, chimenea) with lovely open rural views.

Available by arrangement (£60 extra, fuel provided), a privately positioned Japanese-style wood-fired hot tub for two, looking to countryside and starry skies.

From front garden, door (5'10" lintel) to hall (step); living/dining room, filled with light from large skylight in its lofty vaulted ceiling, with woodburner, TV/DVD, iPod dock and door to garden; kitchen (slimline dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, fridge-freezer, electric cooker); double bedroom (5' bed) with TV and pretty garden view; bathroom (suite, corner bath plus separate shower).

No babies.

A good place in which to relax or to tour from, close to many fine surfing beaches. St Kew: little village (good food pub, medieval church) amid trees in a valley, off the beaten track.

Golf, 1 mile.

Sea at Port Isaac/Port Gaverne (cove beach), 3½ miles, or Polzeath (splendid sand/surf beach), 5½, or Rock (sandy beach, watersports, sailing school and St Enodoc golf course), 4½.

Camel Trail, 4 miles.

About the location

ST KEW

Port Isaac 4 miles ; Wadebridge 4 miles ; Bodmin 10 miles

Not far from Port Isaac, St Kew is a small village – the first recorded in Cornwall! - on the north Cornish coast. The village church dates from the fifteenth century and is home to some remarkable stained glass windows. Also in St Kew is a traditional village pub and a golf course, and there is a donkey sanctuary at St Kew Highway. The St Kew Inn also dates from the fifteenth century, and boasts a lovely open fire in winter and a pretty beer garden for sunshine drinks in the summer. There are some lovely walks in the countryside surrounding St Kew, including a circular route through the river valleys.

Note: Unfortunately infants under 2 years old are not permitted.

Note: Hot tub available by prior arrangement directly with the owners at an additional cost of £60
