“5 Stars all day long, absolute fabulous place.”

better than advertised. watching the stars from the hot-tub was amazing. beds were comfortable and h welcome pack was really good too. Met the hosts upon arrival, they were really helpful and knowledgeable about the area and made us feel at home. we made use of the windbreakers that are at the property and were a god send on the beaches. a real gem of a place if you want piece, quiet and space.

“A beautifully peaceful and scenic cottage we’ve enjoyed so much we have already booked for next year!”

The owners were so accommodating and friendly. The cottage was incredibly clean and very well equipped. The bonus to the whole place were the two dogs that my children adored, if they weren’t with the dogs they were playing in the hot tub. We really had the most wonderful time not being far from the beaches and restaurants but able to come back and have some quiet time as a family away from hustle and bustle. Just what we needed. You won’t regret booking Sunbury Barn; the count down for us is on!

“A lovely barn off the beaten track but a great base for days out.”

The barn had all we needed and the hosts were very helpful if we had a query. Our girls and dog got on terrifically with Daisy & Maisy the owners dogs. We stayed during the hottest week of the year so it was lovely to use the outside space when at the barn. A fantastic location for family or romantic stay, highly recommended.

- Steve, July 2024
Charlotte May 2024

“Beautiful barn in a lovely, secluded location.”

It was perfect for ourselves and our little girl who loved Daisy the dog who was so gentle and loving with her! Couldn't recommend enough, close to local beaches and amenities, hot tub was amazing and the perfect place to relax after a day out. We will be back next year.

- Charlotte, May 2024
Juliet May 2024

“We had a fabulous week here.”

It’s in the middle of nowhere, literally 5 mins down single track roads to get to a village road. Perfect if you want total peace and relaxation, not ideal for those wanting to walk easily to pubs and restaurants. There is a taxi rank however so you can enjoy both. We were very lucky with the weather and made full use of the hot tub which was excellent. Saw some amazing beaches and had a great meal out at The Taphouse. We went out during the day to eat and then came home to relax in the evening as it was so remote. I would recommend and may return next year.

“We had a lovely stay at Sunbury Barn.”

So nice to arrive and find a cream tea, after a long journey this was such a treat. Lovely owners, helpful and friendly. Wonderful location and the barn was everything we wanted and needed. Already rebooked!

“Our stay at Sunbury Barn was amazing.”

It was cosy, warm and in the perfect location for visiting nearby towns and beaches. The barn was clean, and welcoming with a cream tea on arrival. The towels were fresh and soft and the hot tub was a perfect addition. We were looked after during the storm that hit and warned that there maybe a power cut. This was an added touch of kindness and allowed us to ensure we were prepared. Local beaches and pubs were lovely too. We would love to visit again next year. The only tiny, small detail that was slightly disappointing was there were no complimentary toiletries as stated in the description. There was an empty box of dishwasher tablets and no hand soap and only one toilet roll. As we arrived really late at night there was chance to rectify this before we went to bed, so first stop was the coop the next morning. Again this wasn't a problem, just a small suggestion.

- Kelly, October 2023

Thank you for taking the time to complete your feedback. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at the barn and that you were able to visit the nearby towns and beaches. We have spoken with our housekeepers who assured us that they had left their usual welcome pack, which includes washing powder, dishwasher tablets and soap. We are sorry that there wasn't any hand soap provided, this is something that we do like to provide but unfortunately we were not able to obtain any from the local supplier that we like to use. We are sorry for any disappointment that this may have caused. We would love to welcome you back next year and look forward to seeing you again. Property Owner

“Well equipped barn in a beautiful location, we had a lovely restful week and would definitely go back.”

Dawn September 2023

“We had a wonderful stay and everything was as described.”

Everything we needed was also provided. The barn was absolutely beautiful, spotless and the hot tub was perfect. The information pack was really helpful and everything was labelled or set out for ease of reference. Only issue we had was the driving in and out, we bottomed out a couple of times on the farm track where our car is low.

- Dawn, September 2023
Mark September 2023

“Sunbury Barn is a very nice property in a secluded location but within a short drive of St Agnes, Perranporth and Newquay.”

The garden is very large and great for children and dogs. The owners are onsite and were very helpful and friendly. We used the south access which is a steep and windy driveway. Was a challenge initially but was fine when we got used to it and we were in a large car. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone wanting to stay in the St Agnes area and if we visit the area again, we would definitely stay at Sunbury Barn.

- Mark, September 2023
Margaret September 2023

“We really enjoyed our stay at Sunbury barn.”

The peace and tranquillity of the location were superb and the cottage has excellent facilities. We were lucky enough to book for the first week in September when the weather was superb so it was good to chill out in the hot tub with a glass of wine. The Cornish beaches were not crowded so we explored them every day except one when we went to the Minack Theatre for a performance of Evita - a magical experience. The week ended too soon!

- Margaret, September 2023
Alice August 2023

“Thank you again for a wonderful week!”

Really comfortable sofas and a really well equipped kitchen, with a beautiful big bathroom! The garden and hot tub was wonderful for both our children and us in the evenings. The children loved the magical willow den almost as much as they loved Daisy and Maisie the doggies!

- Alice, August 2023
Corrina July 2023

“We had the most amazing stay at Sunbury Farm, we enjoyed the hot tub, and loved looking at the horse and sheep!”

The house was beautiful and very clean. The only thing we would have liked to have known in advance is that the garden wasn’t secure or gated to let our dogs roam freely, we kept them on long leads to ensure they didn’t wander off for the times we were not all in the garden. But we would highly recommend, the dogs that live there Maisey and Daisy were lovely and so friendly!

- Corrina, July 2023

'Thanks for that feedback and we are so glad you had a good stay. Because we are secluded with no near neighbours, the garden is very open with no fences or enclosures. Your feedback is helpful and we will make this clear on the property description for future guests. We look forward to seeing you again!' Property Owner

Perfect location , enjoyable access road , friendly owners and lovely pets dogs Clean enough but could do with a real good deep clean

- Chris, July 2023

Thanks for your great feedback and we are pleased you enjoyed your stay. We have since undertaken an additional deep clean and we are pleased that the next guests commented that the barn was very clean. We look forward to seeing you again. Property Owner
Sarah June 2023

“Great little property in a good location.”

The bed was a little uncomfortable for me but thats a personal preference. Owners were friendly and welcoming with some nice little welcome touchs of milk etc. All in all had a good stay and would recommend.

Roslyn May 2023

“We have just spent the most wonderful week at Sunbury Barn.”

The accommodation and outdoor space are just perfect. Daisy the owners dog is adorable and our child was obsessed with her. The location is perfect for exploring so many nearby beaches, the hot tub was a great treat. The interior of the barn is beautiful. Great views from the living and kitchen areas. Wonderful attention to detail in every room. 2 entrances into the property, just find the 1 that works for you. The owner was always on hand for any queries we had. Thank you for a great stay.

- Roslyn, May 2023
Marcelina April 2023

“Just got back from what was a lovely family holiday at Sunbury Barn, Beautiful location, very friendly welcoming owners and all in a great central location to explore the most amazing stretch of the Cornish coastline.”

The barn was clean, well-equipped and very comfortable. Overall highly recommended and we will be back! Thank you.

Nigel September 2022

“We are rebooking this property which says everything for us about the property and its offering.”

It ticks boxes for all areas of a holiday you may require whatever your needs. It gives peace and quiet, space, access to excellent facilities on site for couples, families, dog owners and locally to visit should you wish to join the bustle of the outside world of beaches, towns and tourist attractions. If you are unhappy here..............it's you not the barn and its surroundings.

- Nigel, September 2022
Rachel September 2022

“Lovely accommodation.”

Spotlessly clean, good location, lovely views and hot tub. The dogs visiting us each day was amazing. Very friendly and knowledgeable owner.

- Rachel, September 2022

Emma July 2022

“Beautiful barn in a stunning setting.”

Everything you could need for your stay was available in the barn. and the welcome folder was full of really useful facts and information about the property and the local area. Jim and family who own the property were very welcoming and always on hand if you have any questions. We will be back and will he recommending Sunbury Barn to all our friends and family.

- Emma, July 2022
Nicola July 2022

“We had a fabulous holiday at Sunbury Barn, the accommodation & setting is beautiful & very comfortable.”

We didn't go out of an evening, instead we had several BBQs & enjoyed the hot tub, it's such a peaceful location, exactly what we were hoping for, the huge garden is amazing. Daisy & Maisy are an absolute delight, not sure which one is which but we spent many an hour throwing the ball for Daisy ( I think) we certainly tired before she did. We enjoyed our stay so much that we booked for next year while we were still there. Thank you for a wonderful holiday & hope to meet you next year. Nikki

- Nicola, July 2022

Thanks Nikki, we are glad you enjoyed the garden and all its space! Sorry we were away, but glad that our son met up with you in our absence. Yes, we look forward to seeing you next year. Jim and Carolyn Property Owner
Paul June 2022

“A fantastic place to stay with warm and welcoming hosts Arrived to find a cream ...”

A fantastic place to stay with warm and welcoming hosts Arrived to find a cream tea had been provided for us along with some milk What made it enjoyable also was the daily visit from the springer spaniel who just wants you to throw her the ball Will definitely stay again as it is also central to most tourist areas ( within an hours drive of most) Thanks again

- Paul, June 2022
David June 2022

“Lovely holiday at Sunbury Barn.”

The barn itself is very clean, modern and stylish with good facilities, in a superb quiet location yet still close to beaches and villages. Nice touch from owners to provide a welcome pack of clotted cream, scones, milk and local apple juice. The living accommodation, being reverse upstairs really works well to take in all the splendid views, fantastic bathroom and hot tub as well as a useful laundry room. The access was a real problem for me, as I have an estate car low to the ground. Not only is the southern access very steep but also very twisty at the start, I felt like Colin McRae(rally driver) getting up it and the north entrance is strictly for tractors, it's just a track with a lot of overgrowth which is not good for your paintwork. I was lucky that the weather was good as I would not have been able to drive up it in the wet. This did not detract from what was a great holiday, I'm just being honest and stating facts, it is not meant as a criticism. The wifi is also hit and miss, maybe because of the location, which can result in no TV signal as well. I've left the best until last and have to mention the two beautiful dogs Maisy and Daisy (mom and daughter), who are the real stars here, so friendly, loving and great fun.

- David, June 2022

Thanks David for your lovely compliments. The access does take some getting used to, and for some is part of our attraction as we are so secluded. We don't trim the hedges on the top track in June to keep the wild flowers blooming for as long as possible, and the unmade track can certainly be daunting if one is not used to that or you have a very low car. The south access is streep but we are always able to drive up it, even in the wet, and we have only had snow twice in 20 years which has stopped us. We don't have wired wifi again due to our location, and if there is a lot of local traffic the 4 G router can be slow. This should not affect the TV signal, but may affect streamed programmes. I'm glad that despite these issues you had such a great stay and we really value such honest and open feedback. Property Owner
Charlotte June 2022

“We absolutely loved Sunbury Barn!”

The Barn itself is stunning, very clean, new and to a high specification. The hot tub was amazing and a real treat. The garden is huge, very tidy and well kept. My 3 year old loved the football goal and climbing frame. My Labrador loved the garden and the owners dogs. They are very friendly. The views and the surrounds are absolutely perfect. Very private, quiet location that is well looked after with the addition of sheep and horses. We loved all the animals. Location is fantastic! The perfect Cornish holiday accommodation for our family, we look forward to returning.

- Charlotte, June 2022
Kay May 2022

“Could not fault a thing!”

A beautiful setting and only a short drive to multiple beaches. Our daughters (aged 4 and 6) loved the outside space and looking at the sheep and horses. They also fell in love with the owners 2 dogs who were so well trained! Overall a fantastic place to stay. Highly recommended!

- Kay, May 2022
Melanie May 2022

“This is the perfect family/couples retreat.”

Situated a little out of town yet easily walkable or a short drive to local pub, shop, beach etc. The residence is situated in the middle of Cornwall so it’s pretty much an hour to everywhere. We spent most of our time exploring the local area & all its gorgeous spring time natural beauty. Although some Cornish roads can be busy and, not particularly safe to walk, I downloaded an app (windymaps) which maps all of the public footpaths making local exploring really easy. The house is finished to a really high standard & comes with everything you’ll need for a home from home stay. We were travelling with our baby & a high chair, cot & stair gate were readily available. Being slightly away from the coast & benefitting from a patio & huge lawn (that gets the sun all day&eve) it is the perfect sun trap. Ideal for the book worm, family games or outdoor cooking. On that note local produce & farm shops are really easy to find from this location. We would highly recommend Sunbury Barn to anyone. The stunning & relaxing views from the hot tub, plus the calm & safe family environment made it a wonderful break for us.

- Melanie, May 2022
Stephen April 2022

“We holiday in Cornwall three or four times a year and we both enjoyed our stay at Sunbury Barn.”

Lovely location, quiet, peaceful yet still close to coast and other local attractions. Nice touch by owners providing a welcome of scones and all the trimmings! Large terrace and well maintained garden to roam about in together with woodland walks to the south. The access drive may put some people off but there is another tarmac lane to the south leading to St Agnes/Perranporth. Owners run the smallholding/farm adjacent and we’re very pleasant. Would definitely book again.

- Stephen, April 2022
Julia April 2022

“We absolutely loved our stay at Sunbury Barn.”

The huge garden and hot tub were perfect for our family. Inside the cottage was super comfortable and the shower in the main bathroom was too good to get out of! The cottage is in a great position so the garden gets the sun all day long and there are so many stunning beaches close by, we were spoilt for choice! We just needed a little better weather for our week away. It was great meeting the owner and his very friendly dogs too. We wish we were still there!

- Julia, April 2022
Susan April 2022

“Sunbury Barn is in a beautiful isolated situation.”

The owners are helpful and friendly but not intrusive. The dogs are lovely and friendly. The property was immaculately clean and well equipped. The quality of the bathroom fixtures and the hot tub is very high. We used this a base to play the top golf courses in Cornwall and to come back to a comfortable cottage with a lovely hot tub was ideal. Highly recommended

- Susan, April 2022
Andrew March 2022

“Lovely place to stay, relaxing, out of the way, great setup and brilliant hot tub.”

Close to St Agnes for supplies, 20 minute walk to the pub. Owners really helpful and friendly. Easy access to loads of breaches for dog walking. Thank you for a great chilled out week away.

- Andrew, March 2022
Julie March 2022

“We left message on answer phone about putting beds together and when we got to the property we had to do ourselves.”

The mess behind the beds dirty socks and had to get vacuum out straight away.Knife’s in block with food still on.Access road not suitable for cars other than 4x4 we kept scraping the bottom of our car on concrete that went across lane on a tight corner.Road full of pot holes.

- Julie, March 2022

Thank you for taking the time to complete your feedback following your recent stay at Sunbury Barn. We are sorry to hear of the issues you encountered. We have flagged these with the housekeeping team. We wish you had notified us on your arrival and we would have been more than happy to have rectified this for you. Sunbury Barn is at the end of a non tarmacked track, whilst it is narrow in places it is navigable by all cars - tried and tested by the owner of the property! Property Owner
Sarah February 2022

“We had the most amazing holiday in this beautiful cottage.”

Such a pretty setting. The cottage was beautifully decorated and so well equipped. The lady next door was lovely. Our highlight was daisy the dog. We absolutely adored her. Our children loved playing ball with her. So much so they used their holiday money to get her more balls to catch. We will definitely be back. A perfect location too Thanks for having us

- Sarah, February 2022
Paula February 2022

“Really nice stay, despite storms Dudley and Eunice impacting the week.”

The barn is very well equipped and we thoroughly enjoyed sitting in front of the log burner chilling out whilst the wind blew.

- Paula, February 2022
David January 2022

“A lovely holiday home, fairly central for most of Cornwall, comfy bed, log burner and really hot hot tub - ideal for watching the winter skies from.”

Challenging approach tracks but doable.

Robyn December 2021

“We had the most wonderful stay.”

Sunbury is a beautifully converted barn owned by a lovely family. Perfect location for my husband to surf and for us to enjoy all that Cornwall has to offer. The place was clean, warm, and cosy with an awesome hot tub and log burner! Highly recommend this as a quiet, peaceful base for exploring Cornwall. Also if not keen to explore, this property is enough in itself, there are walks on the owners land through woodland, to a near enough pub with great food. You could happily stay there without driving very far and have a wonderful quiet break. We will be back as soon as possible!

- Robyn, December 2021
Alan December 2021

“Lovely converted barn with nice facilities, in a secluded location close to the lovely beach at Perrenporth.”

Great information book in the barn about the local area The owner is very helpful with information about the local area and communicates to ensure you are happy during your stay. The garden is shared and very large. My dog enjoyed exploring during our stay. The owner has two friendly dogs as well. There is a great hot tub but the weather was too stormy during our stay to experience it. I recommend this property and will hopefully return again

- Alan, December 2021
Maria November 2021

“We arrived at Sunbury in the midst of a wild storm, in the dark and even that did not detract from the beauty of this place.”

The garden was amazing for our two Jack Russells although not secure, would benefit from a gate just to make sure the little paws don't stray! The upside down living of the barn was quirky and charming! Well stocked kitchen with Smart TV and an amazing log burner. This property was perfectly situated to roam up and down the Cornish coast and we got out to some amazing locations and beaches. I can't praise this property enough and the owners were lovely as well as their two dogs who visited us to play fetch whilst we were in the hot tub! we will definitely be returning to Sunbury and will bring our friends with us! Fabulous!!

- Maria, November 2021
Martin November 2021

“One of the best… We’ve stayed in quite a few Sykes Cottages and this one has been one of the best we’ve ever used.”

Good communication before arrival, accurate arrival instructions and even left the lights on to help us in the dark. The barn itself has everything you need for a very comfortable stay and is kept in a clean and tidy state. The owners are welcoming and only a stone throw away if there are any issues, which it is unlikely there will be, as most scenarios have been catered for already. I have no doubt we will be back again in the future.

- Martin, November 2021
Adrian October 2021

“Just been to stay at Sunbury Barn and it is absolutely perfect in every way.”

Everything you could want in a cottage stay is there for you.The owners could not do enough for you and Maisy and Daisy the doggies are such fun to play ball with without be intrusive on your holiday.The hot tub at the end of the day was also a perfect tonic.We recommend Sunbury Barn to everyone and our Westie is still depressed he's back home.xx

- Adrian, October 2021
Joanne October 2021

“We had a wonderful stay at Sunbury Cottage.”

We found the Barn to be of very high standards. The location was idea for us to get to the local beaches. We will hopefully return again.

- Joanne, October 2021
Stephen October 2021

“We had a wonderful stay sunbury cottage.”

We arrived quite late on the Friday evening. To our surprise there were some provisional supplies which was a lovely thought. The cottage has everything you need. Very peaceful, with beautiful views along the valley and hills. The hot tub is a perfect way to end the day, especially on a chilly evening. We didn't have a problem with the tarmac drive, we found it the best of the two drives.

Ross September 2021

“Lovely friendly people and a beautiful barn”

- Ross, September 2021
Steven September 2021

“We have just enjoyed a terrific week at Sunbury Barn, booked at short notice.”

We had read the descriptions of the two access routes and found both exactly as described. The lane access is perfectly fine provided it’s taken steadily but we preferred the tarmac drive as it felt a little quicker to get to the main road. Jim and Carolin were perfect hosts, leaving us to enjoy our holiday but with the reassurance they were available next door if needed. We didn’t think we’d make much use of the hot tub however it was a great way to relax after a coastal walk or at night with a clear sky. The property benefits from feeling ‘countryside’ but being such a short distance from the coast and local amenities. We had everything we needed in the barn and it felt very homely and comfortable.

- Steven, September 2021
Hayley August 2021

“The cottage was absolutely beautiful and went well above my expectations.”

The little extras that were left for us on arrival was a lovely touch. Thank you to Carolyn and Jim, we will be back again.

Victoria August 2021

“Just returned from a glorious week spent at Sunbury Barn.”

The owners Caroline and Jim, were extremely helpful and gave us useful tips and suggestions for good walks, places to visit and were always on hand but in a discreet way. Their 2 beautiful dogs came to say hello regularly and kept my daughter entertained with their ball games! The barn itself is gorgeous, exactly as described. It's like a home away from home with every single thing that you could possibly need whilst on holiday. They have thought of everything. From the lovely welcome goodies in the kitchen to the comfy beds, the never ending hot water and lovely powerful showers. We loved it all. The hot tub was a real treat in the evening especially with the bats flying over head. We were very lucky with the weather which made our holiday even more fantastic, however there is still so much to see and do in the area that we must go back! We would definitely book Sunbury Barn again.

- Victoria, August 2021
Stacey June 2021

“Just returned from a weeks stay at Sunbury Barn!”

The Barn is absolutely beautiful in a lovely location with views across the fields. The two dogs really are the stars here.. we know they get more reviews than the barn but they really are gorgeous dogs and so friendly! They were absolutely brilliant with our two boys one of whom is special needs and they adored them completely and truly made our stay! Everything about our stay was wonderful and the barn it's self was clean and beautifully presented, the welcome pack was a lovely touch! We will be certainly booking again in the future! Thank you Jim and Carolyn! Xx

Patrick May 2021

“The road into property could do with upgrading”

- Patrick, May 2021

Thank you for taking the time to leave your valuable feedback. The two access roads to the property have not changed. There is a fully tarmacked but steep drive suitable for all cars. The other drive is a shared farm track which is quite pitted in places. It is easier to find Sunbury Barn via the farm track so the directions to find the property are via that route, but once at the property most people will use the tarmac drive. Property Owner
Rachel May 2021

“We had a lovely week at Sunbury Barn, location for us was very good, beautiful countryside and peaceful location.”

The barn was clean and spacious and the hosts were welcoming and accommodating. Would recommend and would love to stay there again.

Michael April 2021

“Amazing holiday, great location, nearby key locations.”

The dogs are the stars of the visit though, they will be there from the morning to greet you all the way to the evening. If you get the chance, let them take you on an adventure, we followed the dogs on a great walk one day and allowed them to lead us the way.

- Michael, April 2021
Julian April 2021

“Jim and Carolyn at Sunbury Barn were the perfect hosts.”

It was just what the doctor ordered for us, some pure Cornish chill out time! It was a sheer delight coming back to the barn in the afternoon and jumping into the hot tub, made even more entertaining by Maisy and Daisy visiting. Poppy, our 15 year old West Highland Terrier had an absolute ball, she loved the flat garden and the friendly visits from Maisy and Daisy. A very peaceful location but so close to some of the UK's most stunning beaches. Due to Covid restrictions we couldn't experience a lot of the local pubs and restaurants, of which there were many to choose, so we are already planning our return visit! We cooked in most nights and the kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. Thank you

- Julian, April 2021
Bhav December 2020

“Lovely Barn with great facilities, owners live on-site who were super helpful.”

The location is also ideal for walks/beach is not far. I'd say turning up in a sports car is rare however maybe a note on the information about the roads just in case you get another rare case :) Would definitely visit again.

- Bhav, December 2020
Richard October 2020

“Sunbury Barn is lovely and very well presented and appointed holiday let, the location is truly stunning and close enough to beaches to walk.”

The drive way is trick to handle but once up the hill the views are fantastic. we had a fantastic holiday and would certainly consider booking again.

“A wonderful barn, great location and great hosts Our only concern is your cleaning company are not doing a good job in looking after the property Cobwebs with dead flies, shower vent not clean and bannister dirty !”

A great place to stay !

- Cheryl, September 2020

Thank you for taking the time to send your comments regarding your stay. We are pleased that you thought the barn, location and hosts were great. We are disappointed that there were some issues.

We do hope that you will return in the future so that we can regain your trust in our service. Property Owner
Christine September 2020

“What a wonderful place Sunbury Barn is.”

The hot tub is the icing on the cake and the large garden is lovely and spacious. Maisie the dog kept coming to see us every day and was a joy to see. Our dog was quite happy to see her and she loved her holiday here. Only saw the other dog Daisy once. There is everything you need at the barn it’s very well equipped. Really enjoyed the walk along the quiet back roads into Perranporth from the barn. Hope to be back again sometime in the next few years.

The barn has been converted to a high standard with everything you could need. The hot tub was lovely but most of all Ludo the Doberman thoroughly enjoyed the massive garden and playing with Daisy, the resident Spaniel

“We had a fabulous time at Sunbury barn, great location for us, perfect size, nice and warm, very comfortable and lovely setting.”

Would recommend to our friends and family. Few minor attention to detail issues with regards to the cleanliness and maintenance of the property for the owners to be made aware of. Large amounts of Cobwebs in the rafters, dead flies are caught up in some of them. They are hugely noticeable when all the lights are on or the sun is shining in. Quite a bit of dirt and dust around the top of the walls where the bottoms of the beams sit in the lounge and kitchen area. When emptying the bin on departure, the kitchen bin is quite dirty on the inside and could do with disinfecting/cleaning/replacing. The lights in the extractor fan above the oven and hob don’t work and need replacing.

- Robert, November 2019

Thanks for your feedback and we are glad you had a great stay. We are sorry to hear about the issues you’ve raised. We have attended to all of the areas to which you brought attention, and will be bringing them up with our cleaners as well. Property Owner

“It’s close to basically anything, amenities, a beach, dog walking etc.”

Just a tight drive which I wouldn’t want to attempt in the ice but overall lovely cottage, nice people

- Stephenie, October 2019

Thank you for your feedback, we have spoken to the owner and they would like us to pass on the following response ‘We are really pleased you had a good stay. The southern access route is certainly steep, but fortunately it rarely freeze here – we’ve only not been able to use it due to ice a handful of times in the 20 years we have been here. And happily we are then able to use the northern access which is less steep. We hope to see you again.’ Property Owner

“The perfect family cottage.”

Great location, secluded enough but only a 5 minute drive into Perranporth where there are shops, bars, restaurants and a fantastic beach. Also the perfect cottage for a dog, he was able to roam freely in the large garden and play with the owners 2 dogs which he loved. There are lots of walks right from the cottage door also. Would highly recommend Sunbury Barn.

“This is an excellent cottage in a great location.”

It has all the amenities you could possibly need. The shed has some useful items and games as well so be sure to check here. The owners are pleasant and friendly. The dogs (Daisy and Maisy) are greta fun as well and a welcome edition to the holiday. Highly recommended and as for a family of four i am sure we will visit again when we next come to Cornwall.
