    “The property was alright but the fact that there’s no signal or WiFi is terrible.”

    It did list that WiFi is not available but not having signal made it worse. There was towels with lipstick stains which wasn’t clean at all. The house was a part of holiday park resort but every other house had a WiFi router which was good. I’d recommend that having a router would be better.

Mill House Barn is a delightful barn conversion just outside Gulval near Penzance, enjoying easy access to Cornwall's finest beaches and coastal attractions.

Ideal for a family of six and two polite pets, Mill House Barn rests in a tranquil and landscaped holiday park with ample on-site facilities.

Upon arrival at the property, unwind in the charming breakout room in front of the Smart TV or continue upstairs to find an additional, well-presented living/dining room with stone accents, two large recliner sofas with handy cup holders and another Smart TV, two feature porthole windows add to the character of this space.

Progress through the property to the kitchen and discover a space that is fitted with all the essentials for those culinary delights, along with a handy tiled splash-back; after the chef of the group has fixed up a tasty meal, enjoy it with your group at the nearby dining table over a bottle of wine.

As the day draws to a close, make your way downstairs to discover two ground-floor bedrooms, an appealing double room and adult bunk room with an additional sofa bed; the bedrooms share access to a first-floor bathroom, and you will be left feeling spoilt for choice with its separate bath and walk-in shower!

The bedrooms showcase azure blue touches that refer to the property's peaceful, nautical location of Cornwall.

The sunny terrace is a delightful spot to enjoy a steaming cup of coffee, descend the stairs to find a quaint patio that is ideal for dining alfresco on the lower patio with its own picnic table and benches, and opens out to an extensive enclosed peaceful shared lawn.
