About this property
A fantastic spacious barn conversion with an enclosed garden, a perfect base for a family holiday and pet friendly. Within walking distance of the beautiful Porthcothan Bay.
Soak up the sunshine, bask in the heat of the wood burner and play table tennis with your family or friends out in the garden at this handsome, stone barn on a working barn at Carnevas within walking distance of Porthcothan Bay in Cornwall. Situated just 1 mile from Treyarnon, this generous, five-bedroom retreat sleeps nine guests, making it a perfect option for anyone on a group break with family or friends. Opening on to a terrace and the enclosed, lawned garden, it could also be ideal for dog-lovers keen to bring along a four-legged friend.
Wander inside to find this barn has been carefully converted with your comfort in mind. Offering airy accommodation, with a few steps between certain spaces, it features a large lounge with a wood burner and Smart TV at its heart. Open the French doors in here on sunny days so everyone can spill out into the garden easily. The kitchen/diner, with ample space for food storage and preparation has a table you can all gather round for your lively holiday meals. Also at ground-floor level are a utility room and family shower room. A family bathroom is on the first floor, together with five comfy bedrooms, three king-size, one with an en-suite shower room, a twin and a single. The enclosed garden is idyllic for outside dining, family games and letting your pup bound free. There is parking for three cars at the property, with extra space available by request.
The beautiful, sandy beach at Porthcothan Bay, where you can paddle, swim and picnic, is within walking distance from the barn, while Treyarnon Bay, where Poldark is filmed, is backed by sand dunes and surrounded by low cliffs, is 1.5 miles away. Pick up the South West Coast Path some 700 metres from the barn then strike out in either direction for exhilarating walks with magnificent views. Padstow is the nearest local town only 10 minute drive away and the popular village of St Merryn is 5 minutes up the road with plenty of amenities.

Mrs Scott
Nice and spacious cottage for 2 families. Great location, close to Padstow and lovely beaches at Harlyn bay, Mawgan Porth and Watergate bay. Access directly to coastal path and walks to Porthcothan bay and north to Treyarnon bay and Constantine bay. Unfortunately the property didn’t feel very clean on arrival. The kitchen particularly needed cleaning before use. The house also smelt of dogs which is never pleasant.

This holiday house is spacious and well equipped. There is no tumble dryer but other than that all is good. Great location. We would love to visit again.

A very spacious, comfortable and well-equipped cottage. Spectacular cliff walks and a surfing beach are both accessible on foot in under 10 minutes. The campsite shop and bar is conveniently next door. Owners are friendly and helpful
