What guests are saying
accommodation was as described, with very pleasant property owners .
However the lane leading to property was described as being a bumpy lane .This was very true . If you have a very expensive or sports car you need to think twice before navigating down this lane.
Great place, great hosts!
The Cow Shed has everything you could possibly need for a few days away, even a Nespresso coffee machine!! Clean, comfortable and warm with a lovely bed too. Centrally located to lots of beaches and attractions.
Fabulous for a couple, daunting on the first night driving down the dirt track but then it turned out to be perfect.
Great location for Cornwall. It is a stay and explore self catering option,so if you are looking for luxury ulits not for you, if you are like ourselves "active" it is perfect.
