Little Barn Cottage

A return visit after 5 years and not disappointed to find the cottage a delight and as clean and comfortable as ever.

A most enjoyable week.

Very clean and tidy with everything we needed.

Great info booklets not only about surrounding area but how to use things in the house. Tastefully upgraded recently. My wife would have liked a wall mirror in main bedroom to aid hair drying/makeup. We had a lovely time and would definitely return. Thank you

An absolutely fabulous cottage, the best place we've rented.

What a quiet peaceful little hamlet. Very homely with lovely furnishings. Extremely clean, tidy and warm, with a nice welcoming pack on arrival. Although over 300 years old, it is well maintained and tastefully modernised. A well equipped and stocked kitchen with everything you would have in your own house. On the only rainy day, we lit the log burner, read, and did a jigsaw. Very relaxing. Ideal location for exploring the Roseland area. A bonus was being able to walk the short distance to the coastal path without the need of the car. At the end of the week, we found it hard to leave. Many thanks to the owners for sharing their stunning property.

Absolutely amazing cottage in a tiny hamlet near Portloe.

Weather was wet and windy but in the comfort of the cottage it didn’t matter! A real home from home where the owners have thought of everything. Really high standard of cleanliness thanks to Sam (and also for her support when the water supply to the village was cut off for a day) Lovely coastal walks and across the fields on the doorstep. We will be back!

The most beautiful cottage.

Our second visit here and we just fall in love with it more everytime. The kitchen and living spaces are clean and bright, all the equipment you could need. The garden is a joy to sit in. So peaceful and well kept. Our children loved running around and exploring it, as well as being safe to use. We also met the gardener who was lovely to chat too. Thank you for another amazing stay. Everything we could want from a holiday cottage.

First of all many thanks for a very clean property on arrival and the bottle of wine a nice touch.

Very well equipped and comfortable property for a hassle free holiday with parking on site nestled in the hamlet of Treviskey on the Roseland easy access to most places from here. Well done to the owners and caretaker. Super property

Fabulous cottage beautifully decorated,laid out and comfortable.

Would suggest some loungers for garden and another table in garden patio area. As we are used to recycling some separate bins would be ideal and accessible. The notes left in the cottage mentioned there were some in the garb this could not be opened as had an extra bolt lick on the door. Would love to come again in the future.

A lovely cottage,well equipped and very clean and tidy.

But,the plumbing leaved a little to be desired with the bathroom shower being electric,it was very hard to get the correct temperature,and if other taps or dishwasher were being used,it made the electric shower unuseable. Although the downstairs bathroom had obviously had a major refurbishment recently,the shower would not function,which meant relying on the one electric shower,which when there is five of you is not convenient.

(Sorry we forgot to leave a message in the visitor's book!

) It was such a lovely feeling walking into the property. It was beautiful from the outside and spotlessly clean inside. So spacious and airy, we all loved the cottage (including 2 very impressed teenage boys!) Facilities were brilliant and you'd thought of everything! We had a wonderful week - thank you for the lovely welcome tray and for making us feel so at home (As an artist myself, I loved reading about Eric Ward and seeing his artwork in the house!)

Property was perfect.

Location a bit far and hilly from Portloe to walk each evening so needed to drive

Excellent property in every way so we have booked again for august 2025

Lovely cottage, very well equipped kitchen.

We had a great stay at Barn Cottage, which is situated nicely in the Rosalind Peninsula with access to the coast and other places of interest.

The property itself was very comfortable with all the necessary amenities, however the plumbing was a bit of a trial at times.

My husband and I had a most enjoyable week, staying at Little Barn Cottage.

It was extremely comfortable, well appointed and situated in a fantastic location to explore the Roseland Peninsula. The cottage was very tastefully decorated and we loved the spaciousness that it afforded.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Barn cottage.

It excelled our expectations in every way. The cottage is in a lovely location. The garden was a delight . The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had all the utensils to make life easy if cooking a meal.

We had a great week in Little Barn Cottage, it was in a perfect location to explore, very peaceful surroundings.

Nice & spacious for our family of 4, very clean throughout, with a well equipped kitchen & cosy in an evening with a lit fire. Would highly recommend staying here.

A very well-equipped and tastefully furnished cottage in a quiet location.

The cottage was much more spacious than we had anticipated from the photographs. It would be helpful if Sykes included a floorplan in all cottage descriptions.

Wünderschönes Cottage.

wie auf den Bildern. Sehr stiehlvoll dekoriert. Nur einmal um die Ecke und schon beginnt der Public Footpath , über Gatter und Schafswiesen mit Meerblick in 15 Minuten zum Hafen. So schön.!!! Portloe ist ein netter Hafen mit einem schönem Pub. Leckeres Bier. Auch die Muscheln waren sehr gut. Tolle Wanderungen entlang des Coast Paths. !!! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt!! Beautiful cottage. like in the pictures. Very stylishly decorated. Just around the corner and the public footpath begins, over gates and sheep meadows with sea views to the harbor. So beautiful. Portloe is a nice Haven with a nice pub. Tasty beer. The mussels were also very good. Great walks along the Coast Path. We felt very comfortable!!

It is a lovely place to stay, the garden beautiful and the surrounding area offers lots of walks and places to visit.

Lovely cottage in a great location.

Kitchen a bit tired but well equipped. Only gripe is the shower in the downstairs bathroom. It is not thermostatic controlled and awkward to balance the temperature. If when using the shower and other cold taps are used or Wc flushed it becomes dangerously hot.

A wonderful stay at an extremely comfortable and impressive cottage.

We couldn't have asked for more. The entire experience was easy, stress-free, welcoming and memorable. Thank you for such a lovely holiday - it's deeply appreciated.

Pleasant and homely property in a peaceful rural location.

Garden delightful.

Very nice cottage.

Enjoyed our stay at Little Barn Cottage - very comfortable, spacious and everything we needed. Thank you.

A lovely cottage in a peaceful setting with lots of footpaths nearby for keen walkers.

Beautiful cottage.

Everything you could possibly need in it. Quiet location and close to beaches. Be prepared for Cornish Lanes - very narrow in places.

It was a real pleasure to stay in this splendid cottage and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Comfortable, spacious, well equipped and superbly furnished as well as being in a lovely setting. We couldn’t find a note in the folders about the cottage’s history which we would have found interesting.

Little Barn Cottage is a lovely property, very comfortable and spacious, with tasteful decor and a delightfully maintained garden.

It was a pleasure to stay there and we would happily return.

Super holiday home - highly recommended.

Lovely garden, very well-equipped kitchen, peaceful location, roomy and bright living area, cozy wood stove, thoughtful artsy decor, and good wifi to boot. The foldout sofa bed would be better for 1 person rather than 2, but I'm grateful that our family of 6 were able to stay there. We had a brilliant time!

We have just spent a delightful October half term break at Little Barn Cottage.

The welcome tray of tea, coffee, biscuits and wine were lovely to see after a long drive. The property has to be the most well equipped one that I have ever stayed in. For an older property there is even an abundance of electrical sockets, which with modern day gadgetry, is always good to see. My partner and I personally found the Kingsize bed a tad on the hard side, but our older children found the singles and sofa bed very comfortable. Despite the not so clement weather we have had a lovely stay and hopefully one day we will return.

This was our 3rd visit to Little Barn Cottage and, as always, we loved it.

The same cannot be said for Sykes however. They were useless in rearranging the date of our holiday from 2020 to 2021. We ended up contacting the owners direct, who agreed it was fine and only then did Sykes sort it out.

Lovely comfortable stay in Little Barn Cottage.

We would have booked for next year but the price rises are now above our budget. The area is superb for walking and also great beaches.

This is our second visit here - that says it all.

A wonderful large, beautifully decorated cottage. A good location, lovely garden, well maintained. Fabulous.

Little Barn Cottage is a beautifully presented cottage with comfortable furnishings and attractive decor, warm and very clean on arrival.

A great location for walking the coast path which can be reached in 10 minutes and visiting nearby Heligan Gardens. Didn’t want to leave!

Little Barn Cottage is a lovely 2 bed property in a quiet village.

The kitchen is well equipped, the bedrooms are comfortable and the living area is a relaxing place to sit after a day walking on the SW coast path. The only snag we encountered was finding the switch to turn the power on for the cooker. It had been turned off, and after a long search, we found it hidden behind the pans in the lower cupboard. If it is usual practice to turn the oven power off between guests, the location of the switch should be provided in the blue guest book. The local pub - the Ship in Poltroe, is about a mile away and requires a good set of lungs & legs to negotiate the steep hill on the way back. A torch was thoughtfully provided as street lighting is absent. A welcome pack was waiting for us on arrival, which added a nice touch. All in all, a super place to enjoy Cornwall from.

This was our 1st visit to The Roseland Peninsula and won't be our last.

The cottage exceeded our expectations on all points. It was spacious, well equipped inside & out. The location was ideal. The furthest we ever drove was only 30 mins . 2 days we didn't even move the car but walked from the cottage. The views from the cliff tops were amazing and the birds and butterflies were enjoying the late Sept sun. I saw my 1st clouded yellow butterfly.

Everything in the property had been chosen with thought, care and good taste - from furniture, carpets and general decor to the art work on the walls and kitchen equipment, linen, towels etc.

you know the property is looked after and cared for and that the owners stay there themselves.The welcome note and generous arrival pack were greatly appreciated and Greg willingly came to help us sort the TV, which we could not get to work in conjunction with the Humax machine. this is the sort of property where you feel like inviting your friends to come and share a meal. the outside sitting area / garden were an added bonus with again, very comfortable seating etc. Our only regret was that we could only stay 4 nights - now we have moved on to cottage in Devon ( not Helpful Holidays as not much was available for our dates when we inquired) and the difference is striking - fewer niceties and much more cramped!

Lovely cottage.

Plenty of space and well equipped. 15 minute walk down the hill (footpath across fields) to Portloe cove and pub. Great!

We loved the spaciousness, the charm and the location of Little Barn Cottage.

Cottage more spacious than expected and the interior decor to a really high standard.

In all the years we've been returning to the UK Little Barn Cottage (we left in 1984) has been our best experience.

The cottage was beautifully designed and had everything we needed.

Spacious and clean.The location was good and we would recommend it.

Nice to have the suggested walks from the property in the welcome pack.

A fantastic property - beautiful surroundings and a great looking cottage.

Just a couple of things not working but that all went down in their little book they ask guests to write in. Very clean and the best equipped cottage I have stayed in. They have everything for you.

The cottage was absolutely perfect.

Far bigger than we expected and a great little garden for the children to play in. The kitchen was extremely well equipped for a holiday rental home. Perfect quiet location, and lovely details.

We had a lovely holiday in Little Barn Cottage.

The cottage was so welcoming, cosy and in such a brilliant location. We had a great week with our two young boys exploring the amazing beaches on our door step. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.
