From the owner

This beautiful converted barn is in a superb location for exploring both Cornwall and Devon. It is close to main 'A' roads yet quiet and rural. Gospenheale Barn offers a wonderful home from home feel with its quality furnishings and design. Excellently equipped with a large kitchen and living space which is ideal to relax in. The award winning self catering property has flexibility to accommodate families, couples, grandparents and friends. A safe and secure sheltered garden tempts guests to stay all day yet the vast array of activities to do in the area also attracts many guests to return again and again. Beaches, moorland and coastal walks, cycling routes, historic houses and castles, golf courses, great restaurants and theme parks are all easily accessible.

We are proud to announce that Visit England gave us a Recognition Of Service Excellence Award for 2017. Having just one property to care for means we are able to pay great attention to detail and treat our guests as individuals.

Please also check out our website for more information on other special discount offers including £100 off (for couples using one bedroom only) and £100 discount on 2 week stays.
