About the home
Delightfully situated on the edge of the unspoilt Roseland Peninsular, and convenient for both coasts, Heligan & Eden, Carwinnick is a small hamlet of five properties. Three we let out as holiday lets, the fourth we live in!
Built of brick/cob, Carwinnick Barn has been renovated to a high standard, and was completed in 2008. The property is centrally heated and double glazed, yet retains its undoubted character, with oak timber floors and exposed stonework, log burner and newly fitted kitchen and bathrooms.

Kitchen with built in cooker, fridge, together with dishwasher and washing machine. Two double bedrooms have en suite shower rooms. The twin bedded room has its own bathroom. There is a large landing area with oak flooring and leather sofa and picture window. The property benefits from both central heating and double glazing.
Further details outdoors:
The two barns together with the cottage stand in gardens and grounds extending to around 2 acres. The majority grassed and making it an ideal area for children to play and explore. There is a small copse where bluebells flower in the spring. In addition we have set over 3,000 daffodil bulbs since we have been here!!
The former enclosed farmyard is a wonderful sun trap and catches the setting sun and is laid out with limestone paved patios to provide both sitting and outside eating areas, weather permitting!!
The cottage and two barns have their own drive to the rear with ample off road parking.

The West Country / Cornwall region
Pam & I moved to Cornwall in 2005 and to Carwinnick in 2006. We love both! If you are looking for peace and quiet, the main disturbances are owls, pheasants and the cry of the buzzard. We live on site in Swallows Barn (there are plenty of those too!). Whilst converting the barns we also found we had a wide variety of bats including both Greater and Lesser Horseshoe!
As we are on site we are only too happy to recommend a local walk, pub, restaurant or beach. I play golf at Perranporth but can recommend other golf courses in the area.
Carwinnick is a delightful rural retreat on the edge of the Roseland Peninsula, yet convenient for both the north & south coasts. Truro is 20 minutes drive and beaches on both the north and south coast are readily accessible.
The Tregony / Carwinnick area
We are located on the edge of the Roseland Peninsula, a hidden gem of unspoilt beaches and rolling countryside and acknowledged as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. We have walked extensively on the coastal paths and have several circular walks for the energetic.
We can organise golf locally and keep trying the local hostelries and restaurants if advice is needed.
For those wishing to visit the excellent Lost Gardens of Heligan & Eden these are 4k & 11k away.
There is a thriving street market in Truro (13k) on Wednesdays & Saturdays and this cathedral city is well worth a visit.

Reviews
 30 Sep 2011 |
We have just returned from a week's stay at Carwinnick Barn and really enjoyed our visit. Our semi-detached property had 3 bedrooms (2 doubles and 1 twin, all en-suite), a great open-plan living/dining-room and a well-equipped kitchen. Everything was clean and comfortable throughout and this was perfect for our group. Booking with the owners was very easy; they lived on-site in a separate property so were on hand if we needed anything. Best of all was probably the location though; we were able to use the barn as a base to visit many different parts of Cornwall (Padstow, Newquay, Falmouth, Fowey, Mevagissey, St. Ives, Land's End and St Michael's Mount etc). Highly recommended. |

A loveley three bedroomed bar conversion. The owners were there to welcome us and provided all we needed plus some extra grocery items. We had a lovely long weekend with our two grown up sons there girlfriends and a young family friend. The cottage was clean and well equipped and we have no reservations in recommending to others. |

This is a very comfortable holiday let. The location is very quiet down a very quiet lane with minimal traffic, so it is very peaceful. It is however within easy reach of a wide range of attractions, beaches, coastal walks, pubs and restaurants. There are other properties on site so it lends itself well to larger groups and families. The owners are also on site and are enthusiastic walkers. They know the local area intimately and provide great advice on where to go, what to see, where to eat and so on. There is so much to see and do in the area that you would never tire of going back! |
Guestbook for Carwinnick Barn
"We had a great week at Carwinnick Barn. A wonderful location - peaceful and restful and with easy reach of both coasts - the best of both worlds! We enjoyed some great coastal walks and unspoilt beaches. The barn was very comfortable with everything we needed - really first class accommodation! We will be back!
