What guests are saying
Lovely accommodation.
Very clean and tidy. Excellent shower room. Very pleasant sheltered patio area with nice views. Really enjoyable stay.
We had a wonderful stay at Brocks Barn.
The owners were very friendly and helpful. The Barn is well appointed and is in a very peaceful location (but it was relatively easy to drive to the places we wanted to visit) with lovely views of the countryside. Loved watching the various birds that came to the feeder outside the window including swallows and bluetits. Would highly recommend it!!
A lovely peaceful position with beautiful views and endless visits from a variety of birds to the feeders near the windows.
Although secluded, it is only a short drive to reach the main roads to access the many towns, historic places and areas of natural beauty. The barn was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed, including a welcome basket. Michelle was very friendly and helpful and made us feel really welcome.
Excellent and comfortable place to stay to explore Cornwall.
Very welcoming and lovely breakfast pack provided. Peaceful and quiet with lovely views across the countryside.
Lovely little cottage, easy to get to sights .
Lovely couple , very friendly and helpful.
We had a splendid week at Brock's Barn.
Great host and everything ship shape and Bristol fashion [:)] Will certainly return when next visiting the area
Brocks Barn was perfect for our short break.

We had a lovely stay at Brocks Barn - everything you'd need to enjoy a break, cozy and nicely finished, a helpful greeting from the owner and well located to get to both coasts.
Expect we'll do this one again. Thanks Pete and Michelle
Brocks Barn is in the perfect setting, very quiet and with lots of local amenities within reach.
It has everything you will need and is maintained by a very friendly, generous and helpful couple. I fully recommend it.
Lovely countryside views and many birds.
Quiet relaxing barn. Well appointed with cutlery and crockery as well as anything else required. Owners on site and very helpful. Down a single track country lane (not for those who cannot reverse well if meeting traffic in the other direction).
A delightful stay in a delightful facility.
The welcome basket of food was a particular positive, and the owners are friendly and helpful. The next time we are in the area, we will book again.
The property was perfect with a welcome basket!
! The host's were lovely , property was clean , the views and sunsets stunning! Will certainly book again!!!
A lovely barn conversion in a tranquil setting.
ideally positioned for visiting lots of other villages and attractions in the area. We loved waking up to the many birds chattering away outside the patio doors. The owners have provided everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing holiday and are on hand if there is anything you need. A lovely breakfast hamper was awaiting us on our arrival and was very welcome after our long journey. Thank you Michelle & Pete! We would certainly recommend this lovely barn to anyone looking for a relaxing and stress free getaway.
We had a wonderful stay in this lovely cottage.
It was so peaceful and relaxing watching the birds out of the window. A very nice welcome hamper on arrival and very helpful hosts Thank you
Very nice place to stay.
Very clean and tidy has all the facilities you need and plenty of wildlife. Plenty of places to visit and made it a good relaxing holiday. Thank you
This was our second visit to this property, it is very well equipped.
People very pleasant and the welcome pack most appreciated. It's comfortable and quiet if that's what you like. You have to drive for pub and groceries. Near to Bodmin Moor and we had lovely walks there. Not far from the sea either. We enjoyed our stay.
Brock's Barn was delightful and we had a wonderful week, and luckily with wonderful weather for the time of the year.
We were a little bit cold in bed as the duvet was quite light, but fortunately, we brought a fleece blanket with us, and we were soon comfy and cosy.. I also brought a hairdryer which was fortunate, as there wasn't one. It wasn't a problem at all but would suggest one in the bedroom would be a good idea. We had a really super stay in Brock's Barn - we would certainly stay there again and would certainly highly recommend it.. The location is wonderful and the hosts were smashing! Thank you ... we hope to see you again soon.. .
We had a lovely few days in this very comfortable holiday home.
The bed was extremely comfortable and the kitchen well-equipped. The welcome pack of groceries was amazing - thank you so much Michelle and Pete, for all those goodies. The central location was ideal for us. Although on a quiet, narrow lane, it's only a few minutes from major roads, making it easy to drive to both the south and the north coast and to enjoy countryside walks inland. We also enjoyed the views from the property and watching the birds on the feeders, especially regular visits by a Great Spotted Woodpecker.
lovely barn lovely friendly owners really beautiful views
Had a great week at Brocks Barn, well equipped, good position for sight seeing and plenty of wildlife.
Owners made us feel very welcome.
Great place to stay and base ourselves to see the attractions in the area.
Lanhydrock house just up the road with Restormel castle, Looe, Fowey and Bodmin moor nearby. Newquay and St Just in Roseland not too far either. Liked the quietness and seclusion. Barn well laid out. Got a great photo of a pair of Greater Spotted Woodpeckers there.
My husband, daughter and I enjoyed a lovely peaceful week in ‘Brocks Barn’.
The property was comfortable, clean and in easy proximity to many tourist attractions! All in all we had a great holiday!
Very comfortable, stunning views and had a very relaxing week.
Thank you for the lovely welcome when we arrived and the goodie hamper.
Brocks Barn is such an easy, comfortable holiday home, we had everything we needed.
We had a wonderful time at Brocks Barn.
Set in quiet location with fantastic views. The owner left us a much appreciated welcome pack. It is very comfortable and well equipped. It was great to watch the birds come onto the feeders, especially Woodpeckers. Location is in reach of many places. Only thing I would say so people know, it is on a narrow lane and not easy for walking. We would certainly book here again.
A lovely barn, beautiful welcome hamper full of lovely Cornish produce, Michelle is a welcoming host.
, amazing amount of birds to view on the well cared for bird-feeders that she replenishes just outside the barn, thank you for a lovely stay at your barn.
Lovely welcome and outstanding welcome pack of goodies, many thanks Michelle.
Perfect retreat, beautifully designed and very clean, comfortable and tidy. Could not fault. Excellent position for visiting Cornwall. Pity about the narrow roads, but that's Cornwall!
Our hosts were welcoming and friendly.
The accommodation was fantastic, with comfortable bed and very clean. The welcoming hamper was a very pleasant surprise. The barn is perfect for a touring base for Cornwall and West Devon. Be prepared for the challenging roads and lane ways, but, in our experience, the locals are very friendly and courteous, just be prepared to give way, and reverse we're necessary. I would highly recommend Brock's Barn for a relaxing holiday. Steve and Julie from Australia.
Lovely accommodation, warm and comfortable, extremely helpful owners.
Greatly appreciated the Welcome Pack, even though we did not use all of the items left for us. Good location being central Cornwall. Bodmin close by for ease of shopping. Access with wheelchair not really possible given the shale chipping and small paving slaps leading to the front door. We managed because my partner was able to 'walk', albeit with much support from me.
A lovely comfortable cottage, we will recommend
In 17 years living in Spain and returning several times a year to visit family and staying in caravans, lodges, annexes, cottages etc we have never stayed in such a clean, comfortable, warm, quiet well equipped accomodation.
Everything was provided, a welcome basket with local produce, bread, eggs, cereal, milk, butter and biscuits. The kitchen had everything, dishwasher and tablets, washing machine, plenty of mugs and crockery and utensils, even an egg timer, candels, fuses and matches. Shower room had towels, shampoo, toothpaste even needle and thread. Everywhere was spotless and as new. The owner was very friendly and welcoming. Location was quiet and central in Cornwall making both coasts easy to reach in a reasonable time. I highly reccomend this cottage.
We loved the area and Brocks Barn was a very comfortable cottage with amazing views, owner greeted us on arrival and was very approachable and helpful.
Would definiately love to go back as there is so much to see. Welcome pack on arrival was much appreciated.
Lovely cottage with everything you would need.
Very peaceful with lots of birds to watch from the patio doors. The owners Pete & Michelle were lovely and friendly but not intrusive. Will recommend Brocks Barn to friends. Also the welcome hamper was very much appreciated.
A small hand rail in the shower would have made us feel more secure, otherwise everything was lovely!
The barn was a lovely peaceful base and we really enjoyed our stay - well provisioned with kitchen equipments etc and very comfortable.
A beautiful property that is kept well by lovely people.
The positioning of this property is amazing - close to Bodmin and a number of key attractions but also quiet and rural. Particularly recommended for those that love to see wildlife.
Fabulous cottage in peaceful area surrounded by trees and nature.
Very comfortable cottage, everything you need to relax and enjoy your stay. Brilliant host too so friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
Brocks Barn was a lovely, clean, quiet and private holiday cottage.
Perfectly situated for exploring Cornwall. The owner was friendly and helpful. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property.
Really nice barn, welcome pack on arrival with local produce.
Great location for exploring both north and south coasts. Very clean and tidy.
The property was well maintained, clean & comfortable with a great view from the lounge & dining area.
Michelle, the owner, was on hand whenever needed, but without being intrusive. We had a great holiday & would certainly recommend Brocks Barn!
Had a beautiful stay at Brocks Barn and had a warm welcome from the owner.
We appreciated the lovely welcome food pack. The views were lovely, even saw bluetits and robins on the bird feeder which was visible from the sofa. Warm, comfortable and very clean accommodation that had all the facilities that you need. Great base to drive to beautiful places, especially, Polperro, Charlestown, Mevigissy and Perranporth. Would recommend Brocks Barn and definitely would return.
Brocks Barn is on a very quiet lane some distance from shops so a car is essential, parking for two cars is next to the barn.
The location is excellent as it is not far from the many attractions that Cornwall has to offer. The owner, Miss Loughlin, is very friendly and helpful. A short power cut and Miss Loughlin was over to us very quickly with candles, matches and a torch and to check we were O.K. The barn is well equipped and very clean. Although it is next to the owners house it is very private and peaceful, a very good location for a holiday.
I can completely recommend that accomodation.
Miss Loughlin is a lovely person and she has helped us in a great way when we were in trouble.
Well located for access to the whole of Cornwall.
Surrounded by Mother Nature.....birds, animals, trees, agriculture etc. Have stayed at Brocks Barn several times.
My sister and I had a very comfortable and leisurely holiday, visiting a few places (NOT Looe, parking paid by mobile app only, I don't do that !
), listening to music and catching up with our reading lists. Listening to music with the view across the valley, very relaxing.
Lovely peaceful spot tucked away on a quiet lane.
Large nature reserve close by. Nearest pub (The Crown in Lanlivery) is about a 40 minute walk. Advisable to book if you want to have dinner in Lostwithiel. Very hospitable hosts. Basket of essentials (bread, milk, eggs, etc.) provided on arrival. Everything was clean, tidy and in working order. Happy to recommend.
Brocks Barn is not only the ideal place to stay, being fairly centrally located in Cornwall, but you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere (definitely an advantage in my opinion) even though you are minutes away from a main road.
It is very comfortable and very well equipped even down to the brolly by the door should it be required! There is also the added extras i.e. the many birds at the bird feeder just outside, and the residents cats. Michelle is a wonderful host and we were very grateful for the goodies she left, thank you, and we would love to come and stay again.....
An excellent, comfortable and warm cottage.
We enjoyed our stay very much and would happily recommend it to any of our friends. It was a quiet peaceful spot , easy to find with the excellent directions given and an added bonus of entertainment from the squirrels and birds on the feeders. The owners were available and friendly but not intrusive. We would happily have given it 5 stars but for the poor shower, a power shower really is necessary, also a towel rail not working, cooker extractor not working, no hanging space in the bedroom and a lack of few kitchen items.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Brocks Barn, perfectly suited what we required.
Ideally located to visit many Cornish attractions. Pleasant surprise to fine a basket of goodies and pleasant music on arrival.
Everything you need is provided fora comfortable stay.
The welcome basket isa very nice touch gives you all the necessities to get your stay off to a good start.
Beautiful, quiet lovely cottage in a great location, wonderful hosts, couldnt have asked for more, hoping to be back later in the year.
We had a really comfortable stay at Brock's Barn, Sweetshouse.
The cottage was cosy and the beds especially comfortable after a day's walking. It was very welcoming upon entry to find the heating on, radio softly playing, vase of flowers on the bookshelf plus a basket of diary, cereal and bread waiting for us to start our stay. A homely touch to show the Host cares about offering the Barn for others to stay in.
We had a lovely holiday at Brocks Barn!
A lovely, cosy and very clean holiday cottage, well placed for reaching both the West and East Coasts. A good welcome pack and milk on arrival. We very much enjoyed watching the birds visiting the bird feeder and were delighted to see the woodpecker one day!!
The welcome beforehand and on arrival was great .
The cottage was very clean. Everything you need there. The only thing I would change perhaps a power shower.The location is great to get to many places. The host was on hand if you needed and was very kind during the recent storm.I would definitely stay again and would recommend to any one in the area.
A lovely cottage, an ideal place for a relaxing break.
the cottage was very clean & the hamper was a lovely thing to do. The location made it ideal for looking at the local wild life.
Home from Home We had a great time.
The cottage had everything you could possibly need - spacious, light, 2 bedrooms (used single for storing luggage, etc), 2 sofas, large kitchen with appropriate equipment, detached from owner's property so a lot of privacy. It would have been nice to have a power shower but the basic electric shower was more than adequate.
Lovely cottage in a beautiful rural area, open curtains in morning and you see a variety of birds, as in woodpeckers etc, pheasants in field and deer as well.
Best nights sleep for a long time, the kitchen has all you need, nice welcome pack and lovely bathroom, the owners were lovely people who were there if you needed them, cottage central to many places to visit, if you are looking for a quiet break with no traffic noise this would be ideal.
We had a lovely, much needed break.
Thank you so much for the use of the cottage. Shame about the weather, but this was a beautiful cottage and very peaceful. Michelle and husband made us feel very welcome and the basket of groceries on arrival was much appreciated. Just a suggestion - it would be good to have a small coffee table.
Lovely little cottage, clean and tidy and set in an excellent location with some fantastic walks right on the doorstep.
The hosts were lovely and very knowledgeable.
Clean, comfortable & attractive property tucked away in peaceful countryside.
The owners were really welcoming and were obviously keen to make our stay as comfortable as possible.
We highly recommend Brocks Barn for a quiet and relaxing holiday accommodation. It’s in a great location for travelling out to all parts of Cornwall.
Fantastic place to stay, quiet but not too remote ideal base if you are wanting to explore .
Owners very welcoming . Cottage was exactly as advertised very clean and comfortable would definitely recommend
Lovely quiet spot with an abundance of bird life to enjoy as the owner keeps feeders stocked up.
Very relaxing
A perfect country hide-away.
Very clean and comfortable. Lovely to watch the birds and enjoy the sunshine on the terrace. Would definitely recommend for a peaceful and relaxing break.
Brock Barn was a lovely place to stay!
well situated to have lovely days out! A home from home! would definitely return!
We were a little disappointed to find there was no garden, there was a patio area but sadly it was in the shade after 11.
30 am. The cottage was situated in a very narrow lane, luckily during the whole week we didn’t meet a vehicle coming the other way except on the day of arrival when we met the school bus and a tractor!
Thank you for your feedback. Sorry you were disappointed about the garden, the proeprty does not advertise a garden there is a patio area only. The property is situated in a rural hamlet where all the local roads the same. Hope this did not impact on your stay. Many thanks.
We’ve just returned from a week at Brocks Barn and will definitely be returning.
The barn was nicely decorated, clean and had everything you could think of, including a lovely welcome hamper on arrival. It was warm, welcoming and in a lovely quiet location. The hosts were really helpful and we very much enjoyed our stay. Although you are away from everything the location is great because most places of interest are only a short drive away. Definitely recommend!!
Perfect location, combining the right amount of isolation and accessibility.
Easy access to Eden project, Lost Gardens of Helligan, Padstow, Restormel Castle, Lanhydrock, Polperro, Looe Lovely owner who was very helpful. Nice to have had a welcome pack, which was much appreciated. Wonderful views of open countryside from the cottage. We would certainly stay here again when we next holiday in Cornwall.
Quiet and comfortable with an entertaining group of birds and squirrels on the bird feeder outside the window.
A perfect bolt hole to visit family and friends post-lockdown
A delightful property and it was a pleasure to come 'home' to Brock's Barn after a day exploring Cornwall.
Centrally placed for visiting areas of interest. Good eateries a short drive away.
Michelle the owner was lovely and made it clear if any issues to give her a shout.
The cottage was spotless and very comfortable. Great base for exploring.
It was very peaceful, comfortable and a joy to come back in the evenings.
We ended up calling it home. Couldn't have been better.
Excellent accommodation in a great location.
A warm welcome from our hosts and wonderfully entertaining wildlife.
Lovely cottage and very peaceful; Michelle was extremely kind and helpful.
Would highly recommend Brocks Barn.
This property that we rented was absolutely amazing and the host was fantastic from start to finish.
The cottage was cosy and warm.
The owners helpful and welcoming. It was an ideal hideaway, yet provided easy access to all areas of interest from Stately Homes, to coast, to pretty harbours and wonderful Gardens. An excellent position for touring this area of Cornwall.
Brock's Barn is a haven of tranquility.
Off main roads, tucked away and surrounded by countryside. It's extremely quiet, wildlife is about all you hear. A traditional barn with exposed beams, the facilities are comfortable and more than adequate. We visited in February, and have been cosy and warm. I can recommend this as a beautiful cosy quiet cottage to base a holiday, we travelled as far as Porthleven on the south coast, which was an hour away.
this really was a fantastic few days away for our 25th anniversary.
the lady made us feel really welcome nothing was to much trouble only wish we could have had longer highly recommend this property & will hopefully going again in the near future thank you so much kind regards Mr & Mrs goodger
We had a good break at the barn in July 2017.
Michelle the owner was lovely and very accomodating. Nice clean accomodation and a washing machine as well, which was useful.
Property owners were a very nice family who went out of their way to make you feel at home
Spotless and tasteful,Lovely owner, all perfect for a break, we will be going back
Lovely well-equipped modern cottage.
No wi-fi available, but phone signal and 4G good.
Great family who own this place will come back here for sure!
