  The property was lovely and very clean however we had a couple of small issues.

  We found that some of the facilities were a little tired such as the microwave (the door button became stuck many times) and the blinds in the garden bedroom (it came unthreaded and had to be redone) We also were not send any information as to how to enter our property.... We emailed as we're were told to do with a time of our arrival but no one responded and we didn't know the keycode to enter property which resulted in us knocking on next door to ask how they had got in. As it happened the keycode was still plumbed in to the keysafe but this was not ideal when it was 6.30pm and we had waited all day to arrive. We then had to go and get shopping afterwards. As we were not personally met I do believe that an earlier let in time would've been better. Lastly providing some basics such as sugar, binbags would've been helpful as lovely as it was to have tea and coffee pods and some milk, we couldn't use them until we had been shopping. Overall the stay was lovely but not ideal for family's as there isn't really an outdoor area for them to play in and being so isolated means that there are no parks nearby. They did enjoy the pillow chocolates and thought the place was lovely to stay in as did we.

  We really enjoyed our stay at the Lost Barn, it was an absolutely lovely place to stay and we were lucky enough to have a whole week.

  Perfect location and we easily found our way around. We visited Watergate, Padstow, Newquay which were all very near. We took our 2 Frenchies and visited all the beaches which were amazing. The Lost Barn had everything your own home has. We took tea towels, kitchen sponges, dishwasher tablets etc but all was supplied for us. Bedding and towels were lovely and the house is very clean, we couldn’t fault it. Lovely little village and Phil the owner told us about the local walk which was really lovely and very close. An amazing hamper was left for our arrival and was appreciated as it had all kinds of goodies. In fact the only negative for us was the sofa. Although it looks lovely, it was a bit uncomfortable for two people wanting a lounge about afternoon in front of the tv. We would definitely go back to stay here, in fact I look for the same week next year but the dates have not been released yet, I will keep checking though:-)))))

  Beautiful property, well furnished, however, just a few bits that we felt were missing, not really a negative but issues may be to be considered.

  All the doors where very difficult to lock and unlock, the step out of the two patio doors was so deep, we felt it was not safe. The curtains in some of the rooms had no stoppers on them, so when opening curtains, had to be careful not to slide all the way off. Very difficult to get anything dry, as no clothes line and the clothes airer was very small for the property. Lack of soft furnishings - cushions on sofa. The picture of the property is very misleading looks there is plenty of space to park, yet reality is on a very dangerous corner, no mirrors and very difficult to get or out of safely. These are just points that we thought may make the property A1, we certainly cannot fault what was there, and the fresh produce on arrival was lovely. Beautiful surroundings, tranquil plus the wild life of deer and squirrels.Beautiful well maintained property to the highest level and will hopefully return subject to availability.

  We had a great stay at the Lost Barn.

  It was impeccably clean, has comfortable beds and everything you could need. We really appreciated the hamper of Cornish goodies left for us on arrival, which we took bits and pieces from for picnics out throughout the week. The stairs are quite steep - we brought a pressure fit stair gate with us as we were visiting with our 2 year old and I’m glad we did, as it gave us extra peace of mind while he was upstairs that he wouldn’t fall and hurt himself. I wonder if this is something that could be provided by the owners in future, as a relatively cheap, simple improvement that you don’t see often in holiday cottages. The location is also brilliant. We enjoyed great days out at Heligan, Rock, Perranporth, Lappa Valley and Lanhydrock, and a fantastic meal at the St Kew Inn near Wadebridge (recommend booking ahead!). We will definitely recommend to others to stay here and would come back! Thanks!

  We had an amazing few days in Tre barn and were so sad to leave!

  It was beautifully decorated and furnished. The high ceilings with wooden beams and the wooden flooring was just beautiful. With lovely little touches and details, such as motion sensor light in the bathroom, plenty of hooks to hang coats etc, prosecco chilling on arrival. The super king bed was the comfiest bed we've ever slept in! The location was perfect - lovely and quiet but close to get into Crantock and Holywell for the beaches but not far to drive into Newquay either. We found the barn super dog friendly and our dog settled in straight away - dog towels provided, biscuits, dog bowl. The astroturf grass and enclosed garden were a huge bonus for us with the dog - and something we find hard to find when looking for holiday cottages!! We couldn't fault Tre at all and will most certainly be back - we are already looking at when to book again!
