A detached granite barn conversion in the owner's garden, this small property is ideal for up to 4 people.

Situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty, within three miles of St Ives and ideally placed for exploring the South West coastal paths that cover this peninsula and eventually lead you to Land's End. We are on the edge of moorland, but still close to Cornwall’s North and South coasts.

Local places of interest include The Tate St.Ives, with a variety of restaurants, quaint streets and local craft shops in the town, and beautiful beaches - ideal for both surfers and sunbathers. Nearby are the Minack Theatre at Porthcurno, St Michaels Mount opposite Marazion beach at Penzance and popular National Trust Gardens at Trengwainton and Trelissick. For those who like to go further afield, it’s a simple matter to take the ship or helicopter  from nearby Penzance or flight from Land's End or Newquay to the Isles of Scilly for a day trip.

This compact reverse level barn sleeps up to 4 people on the ground floor in one double and one twin bedroom with 2'6" divans, each room having its' own en-suite toilet and shower. Each bedroom has a small amount of storage space.
The double bedroom has access to the sunny cobbled yard with a picnic table for visitors use, and stepps up to the lawn.

We provide hypo-allergenic bedding, bed linen and towels, at no extra charge, but you will need to bring your own beach towels.

Stairs lead up to the light, airy living area, comprising a sitting room with multi-fuel burning stove, large picture window giving uninterrupted views over unspoilt moorland, velux roof windows giving additional light and ventilation, and a ‘walk through’ to a neat kitchen /dining room, with double oven electric cooker with halogen hob, fridge, freeezer, microwave; slimline dishwasher and half load automatic washing machine.

The kitchen/dining room has double doors out onto a small balcony in addition to a window overlooking the moors and velux roof windows.

For chilly evenings in spring and autumn, and visitors taking winter breaks, the Barn is kept cosy with oil fired central heating. We also have TV, DVD,  mini hi-fi and a selection of books and games to keep you entertained indoors. 

Skillywadden Barn will suit people seeking a digital detox away from phone calls, emails and all the other forms of communication that make up the constant pressure to stay connected. (We are connected to broadband, but not all networks reach us or give good reception).

We have off-road parking inside the grounds, and a courtyard garden with garden furniture available for your use.

We are unable to accept pets or smokers.

£105 per night  inclusive.

Normal changeover day is Saturday in July and August.  Flexible arrival dates are available the rest of the year.
