About this property
Converted Barn, Rural Location, Near Coast, Parking & Dog Friendly
A peaceful rural idyll, close to the Coast, walking distance to a Village and a pub and a great base for exploring the whole area. The ideal place to come to relax, recharge and explore!
The Little Barn is a beautifully converted Cornish granite “cob” barn located in a tranquil rural location, the barn is near but totally detached from the owner’s property and has its own entrance, off street parking and a private patio.
The Little Barn is ideally located for exploring West Cornwall, set in a rural location but close to the village of Goldsithney with two pubs, local shop, post office and small beauty room, and within a few minutes drive of several fabulous beaches, including Praa Sands a great surfing beach. The famous St Michael’s Mount and the bustling town of Penzance are approximately 10 minutes away. The Barn is equidistant between the stunning Lizard peninsular and rugged Lands End peninsular, the historic towns of St Ives, Falmouth and Truro are all within a 40 minute drive.
The property is surrounded by glorious footpaths, bridle ways, agricultural farmland and fields of daffodils, the famous South West coastal path can be accessed at nearby Prussia Cove, a series of coves and beaches named after an infamous smuggler, making this an ideal property for walkers and dog owners.
The Little Barn has been sympathetically refurbished to a high standard, retaining plenty of original character, full height ceilings and exposed beams.
Accommodation
Open plan living / dining / kitchen which is light and airy for summer but warm and snug in the winter. The kitchen is fully fitted with integral oven and hob, dishwasher, washing machine and microwave. The living area offers two comfortable sofas, digital freeview TV with built in DVD player; stereo system with ipod input and a selection of DVD’s, books and games.
From the living area a corridor leads to a family bathroom with full sized bath with power shower over, basin, WC, underfloor heating and electric towel rail.
At the end of the corridor is the main bedroom, with double bed. There is space in the main bedroom for a travel cot for little ones.
Outside
Outside is a small private patio with table and chairs and BBQ. Please note that the patio area is not and cannot be dog-proofed.
Facilities & Services
Inclusive electricity and heating (winter only) and Wifi broadband. The Little Barn is fully cleaned before your arrival and all bed linen, towels (excluding beach towels) and the final laundry are included in the price.
Miscellaneous
Parking for 1 car. Shop & Pub located in Goldsithney – 2 miles away. Welcome basket including homemade bread and jam.

About the area
Penzance
Located in Penzance, this holiday home is in a rural area and by the sea. While the natural beauty of St. Michael's Mount and Carbis Bay Beach can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can explore St Ives Harbour.
Consider Acorn Theatre for a night out or Country Skittles if you're travelling with kids. Scuba diving and waterskiing offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with cycling and hiking nearby.
