Overview
Property code: OC-P00288

Swallows is a beautiful stone barn conversion offering a high standard of spacious accommodation. Swallows is situated on the edge of family run Carnevas Farm in the heart of this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, a perfect location for exploring the countryside. The farm is adjacent to Carnevas Holiday Park which offers on site facilities during the summer season to include a shop and bar serving meals. This stunning little gem of a property is the perfect place for two, with an enclosed courtyard on one side and a sunny patio on the other; it has so much to offer inside and out. You will find many restaurants within easy driving distance, Padstow (5 miles) and St Merryn (2 miles) where you can sample locally sourced food.

Really lovely clean and well equipped property. Two sitting out areas which catch the sun most of the day. The underfloor heating was very efficient and the cottage stayed cosy. Good to have beautiful beach just a 15 minute walk and a bus stop which stops at the beaches between Padstow and Newquay so we were able to leave car back at the property aRead morend explore that way. Nice to meet friendly owner and her daughter too. Will hope to return in the future. By the way the bed is HUGE and extremely comfortable. Hide

Lovely bright, clean, spacious, comfortable cottage. Adequate outside seating space however felt a little overlooked by neighboring accommodation and no views but this was a small price to pay for this outstanding cottage, nearby walks and beautiful coastal paths all in walking distance. We had a fab holiday Thankyou
