Comfortable self contained accommodation situated at one end of the ground floor of the converted granite barn where we live. The accommodation has its own entrance via a private patio. There is a bedroom, shower room and sittingroom with TV/DVD. The sitting room has a small sofa, table and chairs and there is also a table and chairs on the patio where you can eat outside on a sunny morning.

The space
This is a rural property. The building is over 100years old and traditional granite construction, with 2' thick walls. We have converted the barn into a house and developed the garden over a period of time and with a lot of hard work. We are both creative people and the house and garden reflect this. We re-cycle, re-use and re-purpose as much ' stuff' as we can, rather than buying new. We are situated midway between St Just and Penzance- we are one quarter mile from the main road. The road is tarmac until the last 100 yards, which is a track that leads to our private car park and house. We are centrally placed to visit beautiful beaches, moorland, archaeological sites, the Minack Theatre (25mins drive), St Michael's Mount (15mins drive) and Lands End (15mins drive) We are a couple of miles from the South West Coast path (Pendeen lighthouse and Levant ) and can pick up/drop off guests who are walking the coast path. St Just which is only 3miles away is a small thriving town with cafes, craft shops and galleries, a number of pubs and the spectacular Cape Cornwall. For mining enthusiasts Geevor Tin mine is nearby. We are situated on the edge of Penwith moor and there are a number of archaeological sites within walking distance of the house, including Chun Quoit and Tregeseal stone circle. We are 10minutes drive to Lands End Airport so an ideal base for guests who want to stopover en route to the Scilly Isles.

Guest access
The BnB accommodation is situated within our house, but is self-contained and has its own entrance. There is private car park within the property. Guests are welcome to sit in the garden which surrounds the house.

Other things to note
We provide a hairdryer, complimentary toiletries, towels and l00% cotton bed linen.

We are not able to offer cooking facilities but the small fridge in the living room will be stocked for your breakfast, which will include yoghurts, fruit juice, bread, jam, cereals (muesli, granola, wheaties) fresh fruit. There is a kettle, toaster and a selection of teas and coffee.

You will find woollen blankets which you can take to the beach or to evening plays at the Minack. There are a number of DVDs, maps and books of local interest on the shelves. High speed broadband is provided.

If you are looking for somewhere quiet, comfortable and authentic our place will suit you. If you like modern, clean lines, minimalism you might want to book a different property.

Neighborhood highlights

We are situated halfway between the coastal market town of Penzance (with ferry links to the Scilly Isles) and the old mining town of St Just. We are 4 miles from Sennen, one of the best surfing beaches in Cornwall and about 7miles from Porthcurno, home to the beautiful outdoor theatre -The Minack. From Higher Tregerest you can walk to the West Penwith Moors and the neolithic sites of Chun Quoit, Chun Castle and Tregeseal Stone Circle. St Ives (home to the Tate, Barbara Hepworth museum and Leach Pottery) is approx.10miles drive along the fantastic coastal road.

We are 10minutes drive from Lands End airport so ideal stop off point if you are getting a flight to/from the Scilly Isles.

Lives in Newbridge, United Kingdom
I live in a converted barn just outside Penzance . with my husband Scot, 2 arab horses and 2 siamese cats. I support students with specific learning difficulties in higher education and Scot is a retired antique restorer. We spend our time (when not at work) enjoying the cornish landscape, gardening, riding (me), building things and sculpting (Scott) and assorted arty crafty type activities.
