About this property
One of two Grade II listed barns that have been tenderly renovated into homely self-catering cottage retreats exuding country charm. Set close to Sennen and Porthcurno, two of the beaches that put Cornwall on the map with surfers, this cosy family home is an ideal base for exploring a magical part of Kernow. Enjoy a more sedated pace of life, lie-in, cook at your leisure and take a peaceful moment to sit out in the garden or the old orchard and observe the plethora of wildlife around you. Toast marshmallows around the fire pit in the orchard when the evening draws in.
Set on a smallholding, guests have the opportunity to handle and help with the feeding of the owner's ponies and goats, Hollyberry Barn offers a truly unique holiday experience to those who want to get closer to nature. Inside, this home is bursting with character with its exposed beams, wood burner and traditional cottage decor.
Sleep only 4 miles from Land's End and wake up in a peaceful conservation site where you can explore the woodland, wetland and heathland that surrounds you. Visit mainland Britain's most south-westerly point and take in its awe-inspiring views before heading to Sennen Cove to feel the sand between your toes. Venture out to the charming nearby fishing village of Mousehole (6.1 miles), meander around its idyllic harbour lined with gift shops, galleries and restaurants.
