“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.

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. Owner relations

“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.

“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!!

“Brocks barn Lostwithiel”

Can only say what a unique & very clean barn conversion that made us feel that the occomadation was home from home in these crazy times of 2020, a very relaxing stay with fantastic views of rolling cornish countryside with the bonus of views from the lounge room of baby chick Woodpeckers and various song birds feeding from the bird feeder, the barn is in an ideal location to visit Fowey, Charlestown Padstow & Port issac ect with fantastic beaches shops and towns that have been covid 19 managed correctly, thanks once again Michelle. Thankyou

“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.

“A hidden treasure”

Our 19 year old daughter joined my husband and I for a lovely week at Brocks Barn. The cottage is a beautiful barn conversion with a fabulous skylight in the high ceiling in the lounge room which not only bathes the room in fabulous light but also keeps the room lovely and cozy. Michelle met us and showed us how everything worked. The cottage is very well equipped and there was not a mark on any of the paint work. Everything looked brand new. Michelle provided us with a lovely welcome basket and there were mini bottles of toiletries in the bathroom. The second bedroom was perfect for our daughter. The location was superb as it was an easy drive to just about anywhere in Cornwall. In fact, we traveled as far afield as Land's End. The approach to the cottage down a narrow country lane meant that there was no traffic noise - only the occasional car from a neighbouring property and a few people on horseback.

“Beautiful and Relaxing”

Myself, my mother and my 8 year old daughter stayed in the lovely Brocks Barn this summer. Perfectly located for all the day trips we wanted to do, including Eden (twice). A very well presented two bedroom barn, all on one level, so perfect for my mother. The lovely welcome pack of milk, bread and some goodies was perfect after a 6 hour drive down to Cornwall. Sitting watching the beautiful birds on the feeder was a real highlight. Such a stunning setting, so quiet and relaxing. The owners was so helpful and friendly, I would highly recommend this lovely barn for a trip to Cornwall.

“Amazing Cottage in an Amazing Location”

Wow, well what can I say about Brocks Barn? I don't think there are enough nice words to describe everything about our stay at Brocks Barn. We arrived early and were greeted by Michelle who showed us around the cottage. Not only were we shown around but Michelle also discussed various ideas of things to do while in town which was great considering we had a 5 year old to keep entertained. The cottage was stunning inside and out. There was not a mark or a speck of dust anywhere and this is a credit to Michelle's hard work and commitment. Being only a 2 minute drive from the lovely little town of Lostwithiel was perfect, plenty of restaurants and things to do. But this was also a great central location for Bodmin, the Eden Project, Restormal Castle and many more. The welcome hamper left by Michelle for us (and all guests I assume) was great as well. Was just a shame my partner is 7 months pregnant so we couldn't enjoy the wine. Brocks Barn will always hold great memories for me as it was where I proposed to my girlfriend while watching a meteor shower!!! I would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone and everyone. You really could not find a better cottage, owner or location. Thank you Michelle and family for letting us stay :)

“Peace and quiet in a lovely location”

We were greeted by the lovely owner Michelle who showed us round the property and made us feel at home. A lovely touch was the welcome basket filled with goodies such as Cornish biscuits, fresh baked bread, local eggs, bottle of wine etc. A very good start to the holiday! The cottage was lovely inside - very light and airy. Lovely bathroom with a good shower and bedroom with a very comfy bed. The location is amazing down a very narrow country lane (in fact I did wonder if we were driving down a private driveway at one stage!) The cottage overlooks open countryside and has the added advantage of a well stocked bird feeder right in front of the patio window - very entertaining whilst eating your breakfast or having a G&T; in the evening. We really loved this cottage and the location (good for visiting all the sights) and are hoping to return next year.

“A delightful retreat”

Extremely comfortable for two as the second bedroom could be used for storing clothes etc - no hanging facility in main bedroom. The owner was very helpful, the cottage very clean and the location was ideal for us as it was central to the area we wished to explore. The birdlife attracted to the garden was a bonus, all in all an experience we would wish to repeat.

About the location

LOSTWITHIEL

Bodmin 5.5 miles; Fowey 7 miles.

A delightfully peaceful country town, nestling in the Fowey river valley amid the woods and fields that characterise the area. Renowned as a centre for the antiques trade, there are several shops and dealers in the town, as well as a fine collection of country pubs, restaurants and a thriving farmer’s market. Lanhydrock House (NT) and gardens is just 3 miles away, while the fabulous Boconnoc House, Eden Project, shipwreck museum and tall ships harbour at Charlestown, and the picturesque fishing villages of Mevagissey, Fowey and Padstow, with the famous Rick Stein restaurants, are all within easy driving distance. The tumbling Atlantic surf, long sandy beaches and dramatic coastline of the north coast, including at the renowned Newquay, make for great days out and there is also chance to enjoy river canoeing, biking, hiking and leisurely walks in this lovely area. The friendly locals also have ongoing activities, such as the raft race, the famous tug of war, Carnival week and seagull outboard motor races. The river Fowey runs from the town on its 8 mile journey through the fields and wooded valleys to the gentler southern coast, a natural paradise for those who love the sea. Centrally placed, with much to do and see in the immediate area, Lostwithiel is the perfect choice for those seeking a break away from the hectic pace of the tourist resorts.
