“The Long House is excellent and exceeded our expectations in every way.”

The property is tucked away in a court yard of four, in peaceful countryside on the edge of Mawnan Smith. It is stylishly furnished with excellent facilities. Well appointed kitchen and bathroom, BBQ and patio furniture, very comfy beds with towels and robes. Everything is thought out well and the owners are more than helpful. We booked our next stay here two days into this stay.

“What a fantastic place.”

Exceeded the expectations across the board. Everything in the house had been thought of - the furnishings, decor, facilities were a very very high standard. Communication with the owner was spot on - super friendly. We stay in rentals across the country a few times a year, and this was the best we have experienced by a good margin. Can't recommend this place highly enough. Thank you!!!!

“Fantastic accomodation”

Really lovely week away with the family for half term. The Long House is stylish, welcoming and comfortable. A good location for local amenities, and Bridget was very helpful with recommendations for local places to visit and restaurants. A genuinely relaxing stay in a beautiful setting.

Head to the sought after village of Mawnan Smith and along an idyllic country lane to this cluster of four boutique barn conversions (including Pig House ref: 966634, Mill House ref: 965738, The Stable ref: 966635 and The Long House ref: 966636), surrounded by mellow countryside and positioned in a pretty courtyard setting on a working farm. Guests will love the luxury of this location which combines the simplicity of rural life with easy access to the South Cornish coast path and beaches. The beautiful creeks and woodlands of the Helford are under a ten minute drive. You can hire a motor boat, kayak or dinghy, explore the Helford Passage on water and stop for a sumptuous seafood lunch and a refreshing hand-crafted Cornish ale at the waterfront Ferryboat Inn. For traditional beach days out, the beautiful sandy cove at Maenporth is less than a 10 minute drive and perfect for swimming, sun-bathing and rock pooling. A string of golden beaches and fabulous Falmouth, with its good pubs, restaurants, art galleries and shops, are located a little further along the coast.

About the location

MAWNAN SMITH

Falmouth 6 miles ; Helford Passage 1.5 miles ; Helston 12.5 miles

Located near the mouth of the Helford River in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Mawnan Smith is a pretty little village. It is home to a traditional pub overlooking the water, a restaurant, a church and a handful of shops. The surrounding area is perfect for ramblers, with an abundance of creekside and woodland walks, and subtropical gardens at Glendurgan and Trebah. The Helford River also offers opportunities for kayaking and sailing as well as fishing. The nearby maritime town of Falmouth is a popular resort, with a range of shops and restaurants, bowling alley and the National Maritime Museum…. Or why not catch the ferry from Helford Passage to Helford Village and explore the picturesque South Helford? Enterprise Boats offer trips up the River Fal from Falmouth to Truro, passing iconic maritime locations and landmarks as well as several ocean-going vessels which anchor in the river.

Note: No stag/hen or similar. Long House is on a smoke free complex.
Note: Construction on a small ‘bat house’ (4m x4m x2m high) is due to start from the 10th August 2020 and will last for approximately 7-8 weeks (until early October). The ‘bat house’ will be located to the rear of the Long House and although there will be no visual disturbance, some of the work taking place may be audible from occupants of both the Long House and The Stable. Work begins from 9am until 5pm. Whilst it is not anticipated this will be of a level to detract from the enjoyment of your stay, as a goodwill gesture the owner would like to offer a 10% discount for any potential disturbance.
Note: Due to the Covid-19 pandemic the communal play and BBQ areas are temporarily closed for guests safety. The owners are currently following government advice and regularly review the situation with a view to reopening once they feel it is safe to do so. This property does have its own private patio and BBQ.
