Tastefully Cornish
The perfect VRBO. Everything worked and attention to detail was evident. Beccy and Ben were there when needed and absent when not, yet always available for a chat. What more could anyone expect from a VRBO? The weather was marginal during our 4 night stay, but we accomplished everything on our must do list and to come back to Long Barn, each afternoon, was an absolute pleasure. Highly recommended.

Superb getaway
Absolutely lovely little barn, very very clean and comfortable, well equipped, comfy bed and delightful little outside spaces to sit and enjoy the sun. Beccy and Ben were very friendly and great to talk with about the local area, and where to visit and places to eat. Will definitely be returning Mandy & Ronnie

Perfect Cornish coastal retreat!
The barn was very light, bright and airy with a beachy coastal look to compliment it's location. It has 2 lovely little secluded garden areas just for guests...perfect for an afternoon cuppa or glass of prosecco after a day of sightseeing. It's very open plan inside but maintains a cosy feel. There's also designated off-road parking for guests. The location is very peaceful and is ideal for visiting local attractions such as Lands End, St Michael's Mount plus various beaches etc. The owners Becky and Ben live on site but are in no way intrusive. Becky greeted us on arrival and gave us a quick tour of the barn before leaving us to enjoy our holiday...and the welcome bottle of prosecco !! Both are very friendly and clearly very proud of their holiday home, which we wouldn't hesitate to rebook if we're down that way again.
