The property
Barn Owl Cottage is a beautifully presented stone barn conversion, nestled in a peaceful rural setting within easy reach of the coast at Porthleven and Praa Sands.
Retaining its original features with beams and rafters, the barn is light and airy, tucked away from the colourful and popular holiday destinations nearby.
The heart of the property is the open plan living space.
Get cookery creative and rustle up something tasty; the kitchen area is located just beyond the sitting and dining area.
Patio doors lead to a terrace - a great spot for blue sky dining.
Children will love playing in the acre of parkland shared with the two neighbouring holiday homes; a fantastic space for a kick around or game of rounders.
Just three miles down the road, the old market town of Helston offers a range of shops as well as a boating lake, swimming pool and the popular Flambards Theme Park.
The National Trust-owned Penrose Estate – super for a walk or cycle, leads from Helston down to Loe Bar and the beautiful south coast.
Barn Owl Cottage is perfectly located for couples, friends and small families seeking a country escape within easy reach of the coastal attractions.
