Pig House, Boskensoe Barns

Beautiful property, well equipped and clean in gorgeous location with plenty of sights nearby.

Enclosed garden was perfect for our dog and hot tub had good degree of privacy. Would highly recommend this property.

Pig House is such a beautiful place to stay.

We’ve been back twice and have just loved every minute of it. The owners are wonderful people and cannot do enough to help. They have always been available when we’ve asked for help. We cannot fault the place or the area. All facilities are modern and the place is clean and tidy. The house has everything you need for a truly lovely stay.

Wow what an amazing place!

All high end fixtures and fittings which are all very well maintened. We had our 2 small dogs with us, the garden was enclosed apart from the gate up the stairs. This was solved within 15 minutes of my wife contacting the owners. Hot tub amazing, fire lovely and warm with a generous amount of wood left for us. A previous review mentioned the sofa was uncomfortable, however it was fine for us. The Sonos sound system was great! My only suggestions would be a microwave and a frying pan. We had a fantastic time, can’t wait to return one day!

The accommodation was excellent in most ways and we had a wonderful time.

Our only issues were with the seating in the living room The sofas did not support us , there was no back or lumbar support in the long sofa provided, it was problem for everyone to some extent and I ended up in bringing a wooden garden chair inside , but I managed in the end. It would be good if one of the ensuite bathrooms had a grab handle for extra support. Otherwise we had a wonderful holiday, the jacuzzi was very enjoyable especially on Christmas day and the surrounding beaches were superb.

This place ticked all our boxes.

Beautifully decorated property. Lovely huge hot tub, garden was enclosed so perfect for our dog. Great enclosed separate dog walk area too. Pig House was spotless and everything had been thought of, and the welcome gifts of local produce was a lovely touch too and delicious!! We would definitely recommend and will be booking again!

A wonderful accommodation which manages to retain the character and charm of the original buildings with every modern conveniences.

So comfortable, clean and in a quiet setting with easy access to surrounding areas. We were so impressed with the heat pump and the environmental use of refuse, an example of real green technology.

This has to be the best place we have stayed in (and we have been in many self catering cottages).

The welcome tray was much appreciated after a long journey. Ideal location for exploring beautiful Cornwall. This cottage had everything we needed for a very enjoyable holiday and we will definitely stay here again.

This was a lovely place to stay in a great location.

Very comfortable and clean and a beautiful house. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful time overall.

The barn itself is absolutely beautiful, and the location is fantastic. The welcoming treats were a lovely touch, and the hot tub and sound system were a real bonus that made the stay feel extra special. There were a few drawbacks, though. The temperature setup was a bit restrictive - we often felt too warm even though the weather was fairly mild. It was especially noticeable at night; a lighter duvet for the summer months would really help. At the same time, we struggled to dry our towels after use, as there wasn’t really anywhere to air them out. A few more hooks in the bathroom or even a line outside would make a big difference. There also weren’t any oven gloves, which made cooking a bit awkward. Something small but worth fixing for future guests. We were also surprised to be asked to strip all the beds before leaving. We've never been asked to do this at other properties, and with a 9:30am checkout and a long journey ahead, it felt like an extra task that really should be handled by the cleaning team. One last thing to note. When we ran the washing machine to clean up a few things after a rainy day, there was a strong drain smell while it was on, which wasn’t pleasant. That said, the barn is a stunning place to stay, and with a few small tweaks, it would be pretty close to perfect.

Our second stay at Pig House and we love it and hope to stay again.

The music system is loved by us all and the hot tub is a real treat. Thank you for the goodies on arrival. House was spotlessly clean. Surrounding areas are great to explore - the neighbouring gardens, beaches and Falmouth. Only suggestions to improve - a drying rack for washing/drying clothes and a coffee machine. Thank you

I can't recommend the Pig House enough!

From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the owners have thought of every detail to ensure a perfect getaway. The cottage was absolutely spotless, and we felt instantly comfortable and relaxed. There was everything you needed for a stress-free holiday - fully-equipped kitchen, great tv, amazing en-suites and the living spaces were perfect for unwinding. Of course, the hot tub was a highlight - a great way to unwind after exploring the local area. Another major plus was the cottage's ideal location. Pig House has a great location and is wonderfully accessible to a range of local attractions, both Trebah and Glendurgan gardens are beautiful, Falmouth is a must-visit and so many scenic countryside and coastal walks on the doorstep. Our 16 year old dog settled immediately, and the garden was perfectly secure for him to explore at his glacial pace! Pig House offers the perfect balance of luxury, comfort, and convenience. It's a gem, and we can't wait to return!

Lovely place , perfect for a one year old and a dog , had everything we needed , great location

We have just returned home from the Pig House and are already thinking about when we can return.

Everything was perfect - every detail is taken care of and to arrive with a fully decorated Christmas tree was a really nice touch. The accommodation is decorated beautifully, exceptionally modern in its fixtures and fittings and felt like home as soon as we walked in. The exercise pen for the dog was a definite bonus. We will return just as soon as we can. I can't recommend this property highly enough and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone.

The property was fabulous and in a great location too.

The barn was fitted out to a high spec and all the details were appreciated. We had a lovely stay and hope to return in the future!

Great set up with ‘the barns’ gated so secure.

Pig house was lovely to stay in really comfortable bed. Brilliant shower. Benefit of having ‘adult’ room away from teenagers at the other end of barn. Relaxing secluded garden with hot tub Nice walks near by close to beaches

Fabulous property, peaceful location, spotlessly clean, would definitely go back

Great property.

Very comfortable stay..Sorry forgot to write in the visitors book ,we were a bit preoccupied Thursday back home. The appliance tech can be a bit baffling, for an oap, youngsters sorted it out.

Our fourth stay at Boskensoe Barns, a first at The Pig House, and again a wonderful stay.

A very luxurious property in a lovely location. Very comfortable for 6 adults. The village pub is a nice traditional pub with good food. A bit further afield we would recommend the Royal Standard at Flushing and The Pandora Inn Mylor Bridge. Looking forward to our return in September!

Stayed a week and could have stayed much longer .

This is an exceptional property and if you are looking at this property do not hesitate to book - you will not be disappointed. The quality and layouts well designed and the location is fantastic.. If you have a dog, this is for you. It is dog friendly and has local walks and its own secure exercise area. The garden is secure for children and pets. Organised a Waitrose delivery on arrival and a great local shop in the village. We will book this property again if and when we return to the area. One of the best properties we have ever stayed in - faultless!

Really love holiday home

Absolutely fantastic cottage in a stunning part of Cornwall.

Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at The Pig House and other members of our family stayed just across the courtyard at The Stable.

The Pig House had everything we needed and what we found particularly useful as part of a large group was that there wasn’t just 6 of everything in the kitchen. All 9 of us from the Pig House and The Stable were able to eat and drink together without carrying plates and glasses between properties. The enclosed garden and dog exercise area were also very useful for our lively cocker spaniel! We had a wonderful time and will definitely recommend these properties to friends and family and will stay again next time we visit this area of Cornwall.

Absolutely perfect, the pig house is pure luxury everything is of a very high standard, close to Falmouth harbour and shops would highly recommend

We had a fantastic time at the Pig House.

Very comfortable with plenty of space for six adults and two dogs. The weather was mixed add it was by lovely to be able to come home to the hot tub on a mizzly day. On one occasion we had a problem with a shower and Mark (sorry I think that was the name) was straight across to fix it, despite being a Sunday evening. We will definitely be back.

Great accommodation everything you could want.

Dog friendly. Well located for visiting surrounding area.

Beautiful property with everything you need, immaculately presented, comfy beds, top quality fixtures and fittings, superb garden area (secure for the pooch) fabulous hot tub, lovely garden furniture to sit at whilst you have your breakfast and your barbecue, fantastic secure area to exercise the dog, could not fault a thing, just lush!

Absolutely loved Pig House!

Beautiful decor, lots of space, the ability to create great ambience with the dimmable lighting, surround sound and woodburner in the evening. Great location, in a small village away from everything but still only 10min away from Falmouth. The property was very clean, well maintained and the selection of local produce to welcome us was a sweet touch. Only bit of feedback would be to put in a coffee/nespresso machine but that’s about it

Beautiful property, clean and modern.

Ideal location for us. Just perfect.

Once again, a fantastic stay at Boskensoe Barns.

1st accommodation.

Wonderful place we had such an enjoyable family holiday at the Pig house .

Thank you to Bridget and Mark we would love to come back and explore more of this beautiful part of Cornwall.

Simply superb.

Incredibly well thought through. The bonus of the dog walking area cannot be understated. We have booked again. Thank you Bridget!

Absolutely the best property we have stayed at everything has been thought of.

Felt so secure and will be looking to book all barns for a celebration in 2025, as perfect area,s to socialise. We came without our children or dogs but again great facilities for both

We had a wonderful stay at The Pig House.

Such a beautiful property which made us feel at home as soon as we walked in! We were welcomed with beautiful fresh flowers and a package of milk, bread and some other local produce. Even our two dogs were catered for with a water bowl, mat and biscuits. The hot tub was amazing and the garden perfect for our dogs, as well as the enclosed play field. Absolutely fantastic stay we had, despite the weather, and the best place we have stayed in! Really want to go back but get in quick as it gets booked up fast!

Wow!

Just wow. The Pig House was just gorgeous. We couldn’t have wanted for anything more. Location was perfect, everything has been thought of & provided. Super clean & comfortable. Didn’t want to leave! Would go back tomorrow.

Great property, high spec and luxurious.

Very clean and everything you need. Hot tub and garden were lovely and private. Nice area to explore Cornwall. Highly recommended.

Great stay, great place - absolutely perfect set up - can’t fault!

Everything is immaculate, everything thought of. Never known such comfortable beds in a holiday home! And bathrooms were top hotel standard! Would definitely visit again and while-heartedly recommend!

Utterly amazing.

Such a lovely place to get away from everything and everyone was extremely friendly and the cottage was immaculate. I do always find it a little odd though, when spending so much money and with a full day with no access for cleaning (and the place was beautifully clean), that your asked to strip your beds and bag up your towels. It's probably me as lots if cottages do it but it's not the nicest way to end such a lovely indulgent week.

Comfortable and well equipped.

Great location. Planning to come back!

This was a fabulous cottage, extremely well provisioned and super owners.

I will recommend to all my friends and family and would stay there again in a heartbeat .

Pig House was extremely well appointed and very comfortably furnished.

It was particularly suited for a family holiday and we very much enjoyed our stay there. We would definitely like to return to Boskensoe Barns if family circumstances permitted.

Really well maintained and spotlessly clean.

Lots of thoughtful touches that made staying very easy.

On arrival Pig House had a real ‘Wow!

’ Factor and this continued with the high standard of cleanliness and quality of the fixtures and fittings. The Hot tub was cold on arrival but this was good as they had replaced the water on arrival ready for next day and was wonderful! The showers were lovely and hot, and for tall people excellent! The surrounding area is beautiful and the barn is easily accessed just off a main road. Icing on the cake we have already booked for next year, i can imagine this place being very popular to our disadvantage!

This is our second stay at The Pig House and definitely won’t be our last, in fact we are already booked in in September!

The Pig House has been beautifully renovated and caters for all your needs, everything has been carefully thought about. The beds are so comfy, the showers are great, the kitchen is fully stocked, the TV choices and the music system is fab and the hot tub is the icing on the cake! The “Cornish treats” that great you on arrival are a really nice touch and you have everything you need to help you get though the first few days of your holiday milk, tea, coffee etc. There is lots to explore in the local area and we can’t wait to return in September. Thanks again for a truly relaxing holiday.

The Pig House is a lovely barn conversion set in great grounds.

The garden is a lovely addition, secluded and safe for toddlers and dogs. The house itself is high spec, everything provided that you could need, had a great time, very relaxing and a lovely place to come back to after a busy day out, a real home from home :)

Absolutely stunning accommodation and location.

Had a fantastic week here with family and it couldn't have been better. The house had everything we needed and more, plus to an incredible standard. We will definitely be back for a 3rd visit to these amazing properties.

Fabulous accommodation, beautifully appointed and in a lovely peaceful position.

Some gorgeous beaches nearby for walking the dog too.

Stunning property in great location highly recommended for a perfect stay

This is our second time at Boskensoe Barns.

Last year we stayed in The Mill House, it was excellent. This year our party was a little smaller so we thought we would give The Pig House a try, that was excellent too. We have booked The Pig House again in 2022. Looking forward to it.

Beautiful barn conversion, spacious, clean, lovely secluded garden with hot tub.

Everything you need in the kitchen. Bathrooms spot on too. Love the sound system. Perfect location too, short walk to the village , shop, coffee shop and pub, great walking area too.

I was impressed with the accommodation it was excellent and it’s location was perfect for visiting close proximity wonderfull gardens, pretty creeks,villages, and beaches plus bigger towns /city for retail therapy.

The host Bridget was helpful and friendly. I hope to book again in the future.

We loved it!

and have booked to come back next year

Return visit - lovely modern accommodation ideal for multi generation occupation.

Enclosed garden for safe play (dog and children) Easy access to major tourist spots but we stayed quite local this visit and discovered walkable coves for rock pooling and short ride to sandy beach. Very friendly and helpful owners

We had a fantastic holiday, everything was perfect

Wonderful accommodation, and really clean .

Beautifully presented in a wonderful location.

Owner had thought of everything. The garden was a real bonus.

Very peaceful place secure hot tub was lovely tried to book next year but already booked

Fantastic accommodation set in beautiful surroundings.

Everything about the barn is amazing! Attention to detail all around and secure.We have rebooked for next year.

just brilliant

Main tv was not tuned in only had Netflix

Lovely barn conversion in a very quiet area with all the amenities you could wish for.

One of two very minor issues - not enough loo roll supplied (not a big issue to buy more of course), beds a little uncomfortable. Unpleasant smell of drains in the main bathroom on occasions, but we weren't using it so it didn't matter to us. Good for access to Glendurgan and Trebah gardens, and very close to beaches. Happy to return and recommend to anyone else.

We were super impressed with this accommodation.

The actual barn Itself was so beautiful, in fact it was better than in the pictures and it was spotlessly clean. Owners were on site and really helpful. We would love to return, this is a real gem of a place.

Superb property.

High end, clean, lovely welcome tray...all our expectations firmly met. Great location to strike out from and explore South Cornwall

Very relaxing holiday cottage.

.enjoyed the peace and tranquility. Accommodation was excellent. Very friendly and secure site.

Excellent!

!! A little piece of luxury in cornwall.

Peaceful, comfortable, very high quality, friendly owners.

I could live here!

We had a lovely stay here.

Everything was perfect especially the hot tub and showers. The welcome pack was a really nice thought and the big vase of flowers was a lovely touch. Bridget, Mark and the children were very welcoming.

accommodation - first class owners- very helpful, approachable and friendly as we were there visiting family in the area it was excellent for entertaining the children (as well as the adults) the outdoor play area very good we will definitely visit again as it suited all of our requirements for our situation - family of various ages could all visit us there excellent.

...................

This is the holiday home you dream of booking but never quite seem to achieve!

By far, the best place we have stayed, and within a few miles from a truly lovely little cove and bar where the children played happily for hours skimming stones and exploring. Extremely high standard of fittings, lovely comfortable furniture and beds, open fire, incredible sound system with Spotify and Netflix linked to all rooms and tv’s, fantastic kitchen. Hot Tub was brilliant too!

Fantastic property, beautifully put together with everything you could possibly need in the kitchen.

A really thoughtful approach. Loved the comfy beds, smart bathrooms and welcome pack. Hot tub a plus. Great location for exploring Cornwall but also good restaurants, beaches and gardens close by.

I can’t put into words how amazing this property is!

Me and my family were the first to stay here and everything was amazing! The hot tub was great enclosed garden the living and kitchen area was beautiful the bedrooms where so warm and comfortable. The bathrooms were something out of a 5 star hotel! There is a very small town with a shop and pubs 2 min walk away the beach you do have to drive to but there is more then enough parking! And it’s great with places to eat you can walk along the beach! The place it self is enclosed so no one else can get in there is 2 other places there for bigger or smaller family’s that do allow pets. Everything you need is there they give you things for the washing machine and dish washer it’s just a case of looking through all the cuboards to find it. You even had a few bits of food like milk, bread, short bread, wine and bear when you get there which is fantastic. I will be back very soon here so amazing!!
