Beautiful accomodation!
Really beautiful accomodation exactly as listed. Great communication and helpful owners. Getting there does involve ten minutes of single track country roads but they were very quiet and it was worth it for the idyllic location. So peaceful, beautiful outside area too. And the clearest night skies! We had a fabulous time and still only 8miles away from Falmouth. Five stars from us!

Cascadden Barn. A Wedding weekend
It was a little tricky to find initially as we arrived in the dark. The Barn has been tastefully furnished an absolute stylish kitchen and living area with lots of room. It was spotless. The bedrooms were of a good size. The only negative were the beds. They were ok but having a bad back and shoulder I do need a good mattress that supports. I do not sleep well with a bed too hard or bouncy. The outside area is lovely , however due to being away for most of the weekend and than rain we did not get to use this. There is a BBQ and chairs to enjoy the outside. Loved the area and an ideal location to visit the Lizard and Minnack love this area. We would definitely go again if the bed was a little more comfy.

Beautiful barn and a fantastic location
The barn itself is in lovely location, set in the country side away from the hustle and bustle of any towns, and we were stunned at how quiet and peaceful it was, and how dark the skies were, providing some lovely evenings in the enclosed garden. The garden itself was beautifully presented for relaxing and/or having outdoor food and barbeques. The location is close and easy reach of Falmouth, but also provided us with a great base to explore the much of South of Cornwall and even a couple of trips up to the northern regions. Upon arrival, indoors the barn was beautifully presented, with a lovely welcoming tray for all of the family to enjoy. The kitchen and and eating area was very well equipped with everything you could need for a holiday stay and very clean also. The living area was very comfortable and spacious, again with everything you would need for evenings and any stay at home days (games, tv, sound system etc.) The beds were very comfortable and clean, and bedrooms nicely laid out, with plenty of room clothes and accessories (given that we stayed for two weeks) Through out the visit the hosts were very helpful, friendly and responsive to our enquiries and requests, whilst giving as much privacy as you could wish for. They also provided a very helpful guide for the barn, its facilities, local areas, recomendations and all other formalities. All in all, we had a fantastic stay and we were very sad to be leaving the barn on our final day. We would highly recomend!

Cornish countryside at its best
Beautiful barn conversion with amazing views from the back and approach. Very comfortable and well-equipped (no washing machine but the property description says that). Sun trap of a courtyard. Well off the beaten track with plenty of walks at the doorstep. Excellent location to Truro, Falmouth, north and south coast, Lizard….HEAPS to do in the area, perfect spot to relax.

A bit out of the way for us!
We liked the main room in the barn but the beds & bedrooms were really uncomfortable for us. There was a damp smell in the main bedroom which I couldn’t get over and after a few bad nights sleep decided to to go home. This wasn’t the only factor in our decision to leave - the location wasn’t great, you have to travel around an estuary first to get anywhere. One walk in Truro had a bridge out (you didn’t know this beforehand) and we had to return to our car. The bike hire didn’t do 1/2 day rentals. We just had enough, sorry Cornwall we’ll be going to Wales and Scotland from now on!

Cascadden Barn
What a beautiful place to stay. The barn was beautiful, everything we wanted and in such a quiet location but within relatively short distance from the places we wanted to go. It was incredibly comfortable and well equipped. The owners were very accommodating and helpful, even with my random request. I could very happily have stayed there for the rest of my days!!!

Lovely stay
We very much enjoyed our stay at Cascadden Barn. The location was 'off the beaten track', but we loved that as it was supremely quiet. We appreciated the large living room with it's huge TV and the welcome pack was the best we've ever had. The only niggle would be the rough driveway to the property. Even if the foliage either side was trimmed regularly, then that would help.
