“The Barn was exceptional.”

The directions were spot on. Upon arrival the surrounding countryside was beautiful and the early bird sightings bode well for the coming days. The buzzard on the tree close to the Barn just looked at us and did not fly off! The accommodation ticked all the boxes for cleanliness, comfort, kitchen layout/pots/pans etc etc: especially the wasgij jigsaws. The beds were comfortable giving us an excellent sleep pattern after long walks. This place is top draw and deserves the comment: bellissimo.

- Brian, September 2024

Than you so much for your lovely comments we are so pleased you enjoyed your visit & thankyou for leaving the barn clean and tidy we look forward to seeing you again Kim & Gary Property Owner

Thomas July 2024

“The Barn was a fantastic place to stay with our family to explore parts of Cornwall.”

It is decorated with love for the detail and comfort. Everything you could reasonably need to have a perfect holiday is there. We loved the place!

Jeanette May 2024

“An amazing place, the best we have ever stayed in.”

The owners were friendly and welcoming and the location was quiet and surrounded by beautiful countryside. All you could hear were the birds and a babbling brook! We will definitely be returning soon.

- Jeanette, May 2024
Karen May 2024

“This property is a gem we would have no hesitation in recommending this property to others.”

It is very central to visit places in Cornwall. The property has everything you need to enable a joyable stay. The hosts Gary and Kim are very welcoming and are on hand if you need them. Although the hosts live on site, you have the privacy to relax and enjoy your stay. We will be visiting again and will stay at this property

- Karen, May 2024
Sandy April 2024

“Lovely accommodation, everything provided.”

We were able to base ourselves at one location and go out every day. Would certainly come back to stay here

- Sandy, April 2024
Suzanne April 2024

“I booked this remarkable cottage at the last minute for a short break.”

Wow, we weren’t disappointed! Set in quiet beautiful country side-a hidden gem indeed. Hosts Kim and Gary so welcoming and available for handy tips on travel, sightseeing and local walks. The cottage itself has everything and more you could wish for. Light, airy and tastefully designed. After a long day out a cosy warm environment to return and relax in. Early morning bird song perfect with a cuppa in a private garden. Exceptionally clean with plenty of clean towels/linen to hand. Great location to see much of what Cornwall has to offer. Eden project, lost gardens of heligan. Fab boat trip along the river at Fowey a must. Many hidden coves to explore and coastline to walk. Padstow less than half an hour with spectacular beaches a stones throw from the harbour. Mousehole a lovey little harbour with plenty of art galleries to navigate around and of course St. Michaels mount. Incredible amount of culinary delights from a pastie on the harbour to fine dining experiences to enjoy or simply sit back at the cottage and cook up a storm!!! I’m so grateful to of stumbled across this hidden gem. Will certainly be back. There is also a small studio style accommodation next to the barn if you want additional space for guests or a smaller space for one or two. Once again Kim and Gary many thanks for your hospitality and providing such fabulous accommodation. So looking forward to returning. Enjoy all Suzanne

- Suzanne, April 2024

Neil April 2024

“This property is superb.”

The accommodation was clean and well equipped. The beds were comfortable and we were provided with plenty of bedding and towels. The property had underfloor heating as well as a log burner fire. The location is quiet so perfect for some much needed rest and relaxing time. We would definitely book to return in the future.

- Neil, April 2024
Michael March 2024

“The Barn was so good we came back a second time.”

It's a lovely house with everything you need for either a short or a long stay, it's very comfortable and the kitchen is very well equipped. The owners were great and they were both friendly and helpful. We will happily go back again.

- Michael, March 2024
Sarah January 2024

“Absolutely amazing place, has everything you need and more.”

Furnished to a very high standard. The Owners are fabulous, we will definitely recommend and return

- Sarah, January 2024
Nicola November 2023

“We had the best time at this stunning cottage.”

A real gem and 100% would recommend to stay there. It was very clean so you can just settle in straight away without cleaning it to your own satisfaction and standard. So sad we had to leave as one week isn’t long enough. Need to return for 2 weeks next time. The owners are lovely and friendly. This is definitely a 5 star holiday! You will not be disappointed!

- Nicola, November 2023
Lesley September 2023

“The Barn was absolutely immaculate both inside and out.”

We cannot recommend this property highly enough. Furnished beautifully with everything you could possibly want during your stay here. We even had a very friendly resident Robin that came to see us daily. The location is beautiful with all sorts of wildlife on your doorstep. Kim and Gary are very gracious hosts and nothing was too much trouble for them. If you're undecided on where to stay in Cornwall you can't go wrong by choosing The Barn at Rescorla. You definitely won't be disappointed!

- Lesley, September 2023
Vicki August 2023

“Beautiful property, spotlessly clean, home from home.”

- Vicki, August 2023
Elaine August 2023

“Gorgeous property and garden.”

Fantastic hosts. The barn is a credit to the owners. Well equipped, spotlessly clean and warm. We could not have been more comfortable. We were also lucky enough to have some warm sunny days.

- Elaine, August 2023
Craig August 2023

“What a beautiful property, spotlessly clean, with a lovely atmosphere and every little detail thought of .”

Towels and bedding smelt amazing. Peaceful location but only 10-20 drive to Charlestown and fowey , both fab places with great food offerings. Also carlyon bay is a stunning beach with a bar and again great food offerings . Gary and Kim are such fabulous hosts and we really didn’t want to come home .

- Craig, August 2023
John July 2023

“Stayed here at the beginning of July and we were not disappointed.”

It had been many years since we had visited Cornwall and to go back and stay at this gem of a property was just amazing. We are so sorry to have missed Gary and Kim as so many good things are written about them, but Kim's brother was so good at filling in for her. The barn has everything you could wish for, is perfectly situated for a wonderfully peaceful time and like lots of others who have stayed here, we really didn't want to leave. It's far enough away from the St Austell to allow some peace and quiet, but convenient enough to get to all parts north, south, east, and west, of Cornwall. I think we can honestly say that of all the self catering properties we have stayed in, and that's a fair few, this one ranks amongst the very best. Thank you for letting us use your stunning property. If we ever come back down to Cornwall, there is no doubt where we will choose to stay. It's simply perfect!!!

- John, July 2023
Susan June 2023

“We had a lovely 2 weeks at The Barn - the owners were very welcoming and we felt at home as soon as we entered the property.”

The views of the surrounding countryside are lovely from the first floor lounge and the garden is private and well kept. We would definitely rebook this property if back in the area.

- Susan, June 2023
Peter April 2023

“This is a fabulous cottage, very well equipped, excellently maintained and spotlessly clean.”

I cannot recommend The Barn highly enough. I stayed in the other property here last year and was so impressed i came back to stay here. Very quiet location but close enough to St Austell, Charlestown and Carlyon Bay to make it easy to access anything you could need. The owners are lovely and happh to chat to you. We also have had great recommendations of places to visit and eat. Well worth a stay here :-)

- Peter, April 2023
Elyshia April 2023

“Absolutely beautiful holiday accommodation.”

The barn was clean, tidy and well equipped. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We would happy stay her time and time again. Onky complaints from us was that we had to come home. Hope to stay here again soon.

- Elyshia, April 2023

Alison September 2022

“The accommodation was very comfortable and spacious with a lovely private garden.”

The location was ideal for accessing both the south and north coast of Cornwall and we enjoyed trips to Tintagel castle and the Roseland Peninsula.

- Alison, September 2022
Gavin August 2022

“We spent a week in The Barn with our two boys, 14 and 12, and were so happy with every aspect of the cottage.”

If we're honest we were worried that it'd be *too* nice for the boys (it looked so nice in the photos) but we needn't have been concerned. The welcome was really warm and the house was incredibly comfortable. The setting is fabulous as you are surrounded by fields and trees and sitting outside by the lawn was lovely (owls hooting and bats circling). Inside, there is everything you need for a comfortable stay. Probably the best holiday home we've ever stayed at.

- Gavin, August 2022
Wayne July 2022

“Great Barn in a very quiet and private area.”

A good base location for visiting Cornwall’s many sea and countryside destinations. The Barn is spacious, comfortable and has great gardens. All round, very good and we would definitely revisit. 10/10

- Wayne, July 2022
Robert July 2022

“A fantastic place to stay with the Barn property renovated to a very high standard.”

Very comfortable brightly lit accommodation and we particularly liked the private garden. Would love to come and stay here again at some future date.

- Robert, July 2022
Paul July 2022

- Barbara, May 2022
Lesley May 2022

“Relaxing holiday in this stunning converted barn surrounded by beautiful scenery.”

Gary & Kim are friendly hosts. This was our second visit & we will definitely be back

- Lesley, May 2022
Kenneth May 2022

“The cottage is in a picturesque area of Cornwall and is well situated for easy access to both North Cornwall (e.”

G.Newquay and Padstow) and south Cornwall (e.g. Mevagissey and Fowey). There are also several lovely gardens and National Trust properties nearby, as well as being very close to the Eden Project. If you are eating out you might have to drive about 15 minutes, 5 or 6 miles, to find the best places to eat e.g. Charlestown.

- Kenneth, May 2022
Peter April 2022

“We could not fault this property, spacious, clean, nice garden, high quality throughout.”

Very quiet position, and close to many interesting places and gardens. Would highly recommend

- Peter, April 2022
Elizabeth April 2022

“This is the second time we've stayed at 'The Barn'.”

It's a beautifully built place which is well laid out and very well appointed. It was spotlessly clean on arrival with everything you could need for a break. The location is so peaceful, with lovely views and well presented gardens. We had some lovely afternoons sat in the sun listening to nature and a nearby stream. The owners are a genuinely lovely couple who were on hand if required and who went that extra mile to make sure our stay was a good one. Highly recommended.

- Elizabeth, April 2022
James March 2022

“Our second visit in 18 months and the level of cleanliness and equipment remains second to none.”

The Barn is an excellent base for visiting the many attractions in the area and afterwards provides a 'home from home' feel in which to relax. The private garden is an added bonus in good weather. Highly recommend.

- James, March 2022
Adrian March 2022

“What a wonderful barn conversion, done to a very high standard.”

Everything you need for a peaceful break and the perfect place to explore Cornwall from. If we get the chance we will definitely return

- Adrian, March 2022
Sallie March 2022

“Stunning property in a peaceful setting.”

Would highly recommend this property. Absolutely everything is provided for a relaxing stay. Facilities superb and underfloor heating was much appreciated. Could have stayed longer and was sad to leave. Many thanks to Kim and Gary.

- Sallie, March 2022

- Richard, December 2021
Wei December 2021

“We really enjoy our stay here.”

It's spacious, beautiful and has everything we need. It's so warm in the house with the floor heating even though it's quite cold outside.

- Wei, December 2021
Alison October 2021

“The Barn at Little Resugga exceeded all our expectations and we had the most enjoyable trip to Cornwall in over 20 years.”

The owners were very friendly and welcoming and every home comfort had been thought of. The Barn was spotless, and we wanted for nothing. Truly a place to relax and unwind. We couldn't recommend this property highly enough.

- Alison, October 2021
Patricia September 2021

“The Barn at Little Resugga was excellent The Barn was delightful.”

It was well laid out with tasteful furnishings and very comfortable and welcoming. Everything needed to make life easy was thought of. The owners were friendly without being intrusive and we enjoyed our chats. The garden was a sunny haven and the peaceful surroundings and views made it all the more enjoyable. We were lucky with the weather - no rain, sunny and warm for the time of year (September 17th -24th). Little Resugga is a Hamlet but is well situated for getting onto the main routes to visit the wonderful places that this part of Cornwall offers. St Austell was the nearest shopping town but we visited Charlestown, Fowey. Polperro, Looe, Mevagissey, St Mawes, Padstow, Rock and various gardens and National Trust properties during our stay. It was all special and we thoroughly enjoyed our week at The Barn and can recommend it without reservation.

- Patricia, September 2021
Nigel August 2021

“Beautifully appointed barn conversion.”

Finished to a very high standard. Wonderful views and peaceful location. Kim and Gary are so attentive and friendly.

- Nigel, August 2021
Elizabeth July 2021

“We have, over the past few years, stayed in some really good quality 'Sykes' properties.”

However, The Barn is the best of these to date and that's putting it up against some stiff competition. The property is situated in a lovely quiet village and is itself down a really picturesque driveway. The property is within the grounds of the owners property. Gary and Kim are genuinely a lovely, friendly and really helpful couple. If required, they are on hand to help with any questions that you may have and definitely added to our stay. The property is really well laid out and tastefully decorated and upon our arrival was spotlessly clean. The layout is great, with the lounge on the first floor, this gave good views over the fields. The garden is spacious and well presented and many an evening we watched the local wildlife coming and going through the garden. There are good local walks from the property and driving wise it gives easy access to sightseeing throughout Cornwall. Everything you could need is in the property and the kitchen is well equipped. We had a brilliant time at The Barn and have already booked to return again soon.

- Elizabeth, July 2021
Nerys July 2021

“This was a perfect house in a perfect location.”

This is one of the best houses that I have stayed in and had everything I wanted and more. We were very lucky to have end to end sunshine for the whole week that we were here. We made the most of the beautiful and peaceful garden and were able to eat every meal outside with excellent outside furniture. We had many a BBQ. Nothing in this house has been done cheaply and all kitchen equipment was of the best standard. We were very sorry to leave at the end of the week and Gary was so welcoming and the perfect host. We cannot wait to return to the barn in the near future. Thank you for a perfect holiday.

- Nerys, July 2021
Sammy June 2021

“Wow, what can we say, this barn was absolutely stunning, we instantly felt at home as soon as we arrived.”

Both Gary and Kim were very welcoming & friendly. The barn was a great base for exploring Cornwall. We stayed with our two children who loved our stay just as much as we did. Some beautiful memories made. Xx

- Sammy, June 2021
Jean June 2021

“The only thing missing was a tumble dryer which would make it perfect.”

- Jean, June 2021
Lesley April 2021

“The barn is absolutely stunning with fantastic views of the countryside.”

Although a remote location it was perfect for a relaxing holiday, lots of walking & visits to nearby attractions. Kim & Gary are great hosts,very sociable & we have booked again for next year.

- Lesley, April 2021

“This was a truly fabulous property!”

Coupled with very welcoming & friendly hosts, we had everything to make this a really enjoyable and relaxing stay! The standard of the décor and facilities was superb, and it was lovely and warm and cosy too! We can't recommend this one highly enough! Thank you!

- Anna, October 2020
Laura October 2020

“We had a wonderful week holiday at The Barn over half term.”

The cottage is so clean and had everything to make our stay comfortable and really special. Kim and Gary were very easy to approach and happy to help with any questions we may have had. The location is great with easy access to everything. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely be booking another stay in the future!

- Laura, October 2020

- Jason, October 2020
Steven September 2020

“What a gorgeous place, we we’re completely delighted from the moment we stepped into the cottage.”

Completely lived upto our expectations and beyond. Extremely clean and well equipped with all that’s needed. Served as a perfect base for our week in Cornwall and enabled us to travel easily to each coast and take in all the sights. Thanks to the owners for making our week a very comfortable one.

- Steven, September 2020
James September 2020

“A truly rural retreat.”

Beautifully equipped, very comfortable and with a very private garden. This was a perfect break away. Situated in lovely walking country but only 10 minutes drive away from major facilities at St Austell. We will definately come back as it makes a perfect base for visiting the whole of Cornwall.

- James, September 2020
Caroline August 2020

“Fantastic week in this very comfortable barn conversion, super clean, spacious and very well equipped.”

Would definitely recommend

- Caroline, August 2020
Andrew August 2020

“This is a beautiful property in a quiet and secluded spot.”

The property was spotlesslly clean and well furnished. A lovely place from which to explore Cornwall.

- Andrew, August 2020
Steve July 2020

“The Barn was everything we could want from a holiday cottage and more.”

Very large and comfortable with excellent kitchen facilities. Lovely garden to sit out in. Gary and Kim helpful and informative. The Barn is located about a mile from Bugle and Penwithick and around 5 miles from the beautiful harbour village of Charlestown, which has some excellent restaurants and bars (book well in advance) plus there is a nice beach at Carlyon which is around 6 miles away.

- Steve, July 2020
Andrew July 2020

“A wonderful cottage with excellent welcoming hosts.”

Nice quiet location down a small lane with plenty of space inside and supplied with everything you could need for a relaxing time. Would not hesitate to book again and highly recommended!

- Andrew, July 2020
Jennie March 2020

“The accomodation was very relaxing and quiet.”

We looked forward to returning to the barn after our daily walk. The owners were very welcoming and friendly. We will definitely return next year.

- Jennie, March 2020
Alan March 2020

“Excellent barn conversion in a good place to explore the whole of Cornwall.”

The barn is so well equiped and the cleanliness is superb, it was nice to walk into a property and not have to start cleaning. Gary and Kim were excellent hosts and we would highly recommend this property.

- Alan, March 2020
Colin February 2020

“The barn is beautifully equipped and it is obvious that Kim and Gary take pride in providing high quality accommodation.”

It is situated within walking distance to the Eden Project and not far from the lost Gardens of Heligan, the Unesco world heritage site at Luxulyan Valley and Lanhydrock National Trust so there are many things to explore. if you enjoy walking there are plenty of footpaths to explore as well as some of the Daphne du Maurier sites. There are good views from the barn and it is very private and yet near Kim and Gary if you require advice or help.

- Colin, February 2020
Karen February 2020

“Wow Wow Wow, the best place we have ever stayed in!”

Immaculate and so tastefully decorated. Loaded with creature comforts, there was nothing we wanted for as it was all there! Kim the host was lovely and made us feel at home. I felt spoilt staying here, so glad I chose it x

- Karen, February 2020
Christopher January 2020

“There are only two words to describe " The Barn.”

" "Perfectly Perfect". We have visited Cornwall many times in cottages. Cornwall is our first choice for our annual winter beak. we enjoyed blustery beach walks in our wellies paddling in the surf, returning to the warm comfort of The Barn. A beautiful country retreat. Exceptionally well appointed. We enjoyed every day. Many many thanks to Kim and Gary our friendly hosts. We highly recommend The Barn and look forward to or next visit. Chris and Deny. Regarding the booking. This is the first time we have booked through Last Minute Cottages not realising Sykes Cottages were involved and others. See our review on "TrustPilot" which does not apply to The Barn, only the booking proceedure.

- Christopher, January 2020
Helen September 2019

“The barn cottage exceeded our expectations.”

It's in a great, quiet central location to visit all of Cornwall. Even though it rained most of the week the accommodation was light, warm and a great place to relax. It had everything you could possibly want and well equipped. The double bed is extremely comfy and the owners had lovely touches on arrival such as milk in the fridge, tea and coffee and biscuits. It's extremely clean and interior design well thought out.

- Helen, September 2019
Brian September 2019

“Kim and Gary made us feel very welcomed.”

The listing doesn’t do this cottage justice. The cottage has everything you could possibly wish for, right down to cleaning products, tea towels and a coffee maker. Will definitely be returning.

- Brian, September 2019
Mike August 2019

“The owners who live adjacent make sure everyone has a holiday to remember.”

Gary provided a BBQ out of the blue. Nothing was too much trouble. We stayed in The Snug last year and The Barn this year which exceeded even our expectations. It has all the space and facilities you could ever want to a famous stay in a rural location. The Barn is also full of maps, books of local interest and attractions brochures to ensure there is never a dull moment. It scores 100% in our book. Utterly brilliant for us as a family of two adults and two children.

- Mike, August 2019
Annette August 2019

“An excellent holiday in a fantastic setting.”

The Barn was superbly equipped and the owners Kim and Gary were very accommodating and helpful. Would highly recommend this holiday let.

- Annette, August 2019
Sue August 2019

“Our hosts were friendly and welcoming without being intrusive.”

There was amazing attention to detail in both the decor and facilities of the cottage. Although we had fairly poor weather and were unable to take full advantage of it, the garden was a lovely space and better than suggested by the promotional photos.

- Sue, August 2019
Margaret July 2019

“We enjoyed a wonderful week in an exceptional cottage.”

The barn has been renovated to an extremely high standard. We particularly liked the amount of light inside the cottage. It has been tastefully furnished and decorated. The owners, have a definite talent for interior design. We were made to feel welcome on arrival, and felt comfortable and very much at home throughout our stay. Everything you could possibly need was provided, both inside and out. We really enjoyed sitting in the sunshine, and eating meals in the spacious garden. There are plenty of places to eat out and to visit, in the region, without having to travel too far.

- Margaret, July 2019
Joyce June 2019

“When we arrived in Rescorla we thought.”

..oh this is too rural for us, even though we did do research. However when we arrived at the barn and were shown around by the owner we were blown away, the accommodation made up for the location. The barn conversion has been done very tastefully, the quality of the bed linens, towels, soft furnishing (which is very important to me) they were top notch. The kitchen had absolutely everything you would have in your own kitchen, it truly was home from home. Large south facing garden with seating placed strategically around meant you could sit in the sun all day if you wished. Also very private. The location did work out in the end as our plan was to do as much cycling as possible and we certainly did that, Port Issac, St Ives, Padstow and Lands End mostly on cycle routes. If we were to go back to Cornwall we would certainly stay here again and would definitely recommend as we can honestly say it has been the best self catering property we have ever stayed in.

- Joyce, June 2019
Robin May 2019

“This beautiful converted barn is one of the prettiest we have had the pleasure to visit.”

Every thoughtful detail has been though of and the decor is just as I would have it, and i’m fussy. Lovely quiet location and wonderful hosts. Would not hesitate to stay here again.

- Robin, May 2019
Mike May 2019

“A delightful place in a secluded spot, lovely and peaceful.”

We couldn’t have asked for more in Cornwall. Very recommended.

Hayley April 2019

“The Barn was absolutely stunning.”

You couldn't ask for better accommodation. Everything from the garden to the lounge was beautiful. We will definitely be returning!

- Hayley, April 2019
Dawn March 2019

“From the time we entered the cottage we were instantly enthralled with it, the cottage was spotlessly clean with beautiful decor and fabulous furnishings, everything you could possibly need was included even down to handsoap and salt!”

My husband and I slept soundly which we felt was down to the very very comfortable bed it really was amazing. We had a fabulous holiday in Little Resgugga everything was just perfect if we could choose a cottage to purchase this would be it, we could not fault it in any way. Kim and Gary were very friendly and welcoming and should be commended for all their hard work in making this cottage such a lovely place to relax and enjoy beautiful Cornwall.

- Dawn, March 2019
Aaron March 2019

“Little Resugga was the perfect cottage,everything we needed and we couldn't help but relax and feel at home.”

Thank you.

- Aaron, March 2019
Adam February 2019

“Little Resugga is a perfect place for your next Cornish holiday.”

Either as a couple or a family of four, your every need is catered for, from the warm welcome you’ll receceive from Kim and Gary right through to the beautifully appointed interiors - you will not be disappointed. The cottage is centrally located for exploring any part of Cornwall as it’s just a 5min drive to the A30; the accessibility is a great benefit. Be prepared for cosy evenings in front of the fire and a well equipped kitchen to keep the chef happy. Should you need space for more guests you could even look-up “The snug” which is a nearby two person cottage finished to the same high standards. We shall be heading back to Luttle Resugga very soon...

- Adam, February 2019
Alison November 2018

“This cottage is absolutely beautiful.”

It really is like walking into the pages of a design magazine when you arrive. It's very comfortable, and for anyone who enjoys cooking, the kitchen is well equipped for preparing just about any sort of food. My only criticism is that the mattress on our bed had a big dip in the middle, rendering it extremely uncomfortable - the time has definitely come to replace it. That would not however stop me from coming back. I will be returning.

- Alison, November 2018
Martin November 2018

“We had a very enjoyable stay at Little Resugga, the cottage was exactly as we expected and was in immaculate condition with first class facilities.”

Kim, the owner was friendly and welcoming and the cottage was located in a quiet yet convenient location for exploring Cornwall. In short, a great experience!

- Martin, November 2018
James October 2018

“Met Kim on arrival who took us though the cottage and explained where everything was and gave us a few great ideas of things to do and places to go locally.”

It's a beautiful cottage in a very tranquil location, very warm and cosy with a very effective underfloor heating system and the wood burner (not that we needed it!). The kitchen is a great space with every utensil and appliance you could want to use and the light airy lounge upstairs gave a nice space to relax in the evenings. The bed was very comfortable which is a must when your doing a fair amount of walking during the daytime! Bathroom equipped with a nice large free standing bath and separate shower cubicle so once again all needs had been catered for. On the whole the cottage was absolutely immaculate and I can safely say we didn't want for anything for the entire duration of your stay. Looking forward to coming back!

Ideally situated for exploring the area and very high standard of decor and cleanliness. The owners were very friendly and the welcomie pack was very much appreciated.

“Kim and Gary have a gem of a cottage that keeps on giving as you live in it: After a really warm welcome we found the place full of lovely touches: everything worked and every drawer and cupboard had something else useful within.”

An excellent venue

“Very easy to book our holiday with Sykes - no problems at all.”

Our stay at Little Resugga Cottage couldn’t have been better. The cottage was just stunning! We were made to feel so very welcome by the lovely family who owned it and they really did have everything covered. It had a secret walk where our children enjoyed searching for the tiny frogs! We would definitely return and highly recommend. Thank you!

“Wir, 2 Erwachsene und 2 Teenager, hatten einen wundervollen Urlaub.”

Das Ferienhaus lässt keine Wünsche offen. Bei Fragen oder regionalen Ausflugsempfehlungen halfen die Vermieter Kim und Garry stets nett und freundlich weiter. Das ruhige Ferienhaus ist als Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge für ganz Cornwall bestens geeignet. Innerhalb von maximal einer Stunde ist man zBsp. In Landsend, im Miniack Theater, St. Michael Mount, Plymouth oder auch Bude ..Viele schöne Gardens sind ebenso in kurzer Zeit zu erreichen. Wir können dieses Ferienhaus nur weiterempfehlen und hoffen, auch selbst noch einmal zurück kehren zu können.

“Little Ressuga is a fabulously cosy and really well equipped cottage perfectly placed for exploring Cornwall.”

The cottage is just as beautiful as the pictures suggest and, in fact, we found it to be larger than we had anticipated. The cottage has every kitchen gadget you could need and is really well furnished with comfy beds and lots of seating. It's location is excellent for visiting the Eden Project, Fowey, Padstow, Bodmin, Charlestown and Pentewan to name but a few! Kim and Gary were excellent hosts and were on hand with advice for exploring the area whenever needed.

“What can we say Little Resugga is the most beautiful barn we have ever seen, Kim's eye for design is amazing and it has everything you need and more.”

I have never been anywhere so clean and everything has been thought about in order to make your holiday perfect. Definitely will be returning. The garden is so private and if you are lucky with the weather a beautiful place to relax after visiting the most beautiful villages and beaches.

“We had the most wonderful stay at Little Resugga.”

It’s an absolutely beautiful barn conversion, decorated with such style and a real eye for detail. Spotlessly clean, with quality fixtures and fittings, comfy beds, underfloor heating and a very pretty private garden. The hosts Kim and Gary were so very, very welcoming and have thought of everything anyone could need to make a stay comfortable; it really is the most well equipped rental we have ever stayed at! Coming back to such a lovely place after long days out exploring was marvellous. Highly, highly recommended!

“Lovely property and friendly hosts who made us feel very welcome.”

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and quality of cottage was of high standard.Very peaceful surroundings so heled us to relax..We wished we could have stayed longer. It felt like home away from home. Location was great. Close to Eden Project so we took opportunity to visit and glad we did. Close by to beaches and some good coastal walks. Took us 30 min to get to Padstow. Would definitely recommend

“Little Resugga is the most beautiful and luxurious cottage we have ever had the pleasure of staying in.”

On arrival we received a warm welcome from the owner Kim. She showed us around the spotlessly clean, warm, welcoming and extremely well equipped cottage. Fresh milk was already in the fridge, Cornish biscuits left on the side and the log burner laid and ready to go. The underfloor heating on slate tiles throughout the cottage ensured it was always warm and nice underfoot. Secure storage for our bikes and a strategically placed hosepipe made life very easy for us after many a cycle ride on the Clay trails. It is apparent Kim has an eye for interior design and everywhere you look shouts out quality, including all the kitchen appliances, fittings and fixtures. Somehow they make the cottage feel like home rather than somewhere just to stay. The place is hidden away and off the beaten track including an enclosed and well established private garden, but close enough to get the odd loaf of bread or beautiful fish and chips from nearby Penwithick. The Eden Project is less than 5 miles away and easily accessible by cycle, car or on foot. Owners Kim and Gary are the perfect hosts. They are there if you need them and nothing is ever too much trouble. We cannot recommend this cottage enough and if you are thinking about booking, then just do it as you won’t be disappointed and it will definitely exceed your expectations. The only disapointment was leaving such an amazing place. We will be back!!!

“Little Resugga is an amazing cottage, in a peaceful location.”

The cottage itself is beautifully clean and wonderfully furnished. We were made very welcome by the owner who lives close by. I have stayed in some lovely cottages in my time but I was simply blown away with this one , the sense of space, quality of the fixtures and fittings. We came in early Feb and the property was warm and cosy, the underfloor heating works a treat and the log burner in the lounge makes relaxing there an absolute treat. With regards to location, this property in not far from the A30 providing quick access to explore different parts of Cornwall.

About the location

ST. AUSTELL

Charlestown 2 miles; Carlyon Bay 3 miles; Mevagissey 6 miles; Fowey 8 miles.

The old market town of St Austell, just a mile or two from the south coast, is famous as the historic centre of the china clay mining industry. Today, its many beaches and its sub-tropical gardens provide plenty to see and do. The wonderful Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden Project are perfect for a family day out, and a little further afield Caerhays Castle provides a stunning backdrop to Porthluny Cove. On the edge of town, St Austell Brewery offers tours of the Victorian brewing equipment and a chance to sample the local beer, and for those looking for surf and sand, St Austell Bay has several beaches to choose from - Porthpean, Carlyon Bay, Pentewan, Polkerris - the last offering a variety of water-sports. As well as a small shingle beach, Charlestown, a pretty, historic port, often has wooden sailing ships in the harbour, and is popular as a film location. A little further afield are Fowey and its beautiful estuary to the east and the fishing port of Mevagissey to the west. With lots to do and something to keep the whole family entertained, St Austell is a great year-round destination.
