If you're seeking peace and quiet, look no further.  Gwels Efan Barn is situated on a traffic free section of the Saint's Way - a trading route dating back to the Bronze Age, running coast to coast from Padstow to Fowey.  This delightful little property, located in the grounds of Gwels Efan, is set in a truly rural location, with livestock in the surrounding fields and extensive countryside views, but is about 10 minutes' drive from Padstow and about 15 minutes' drive to the spectacular North Coast with its stunning scenery and sandy beaches.  If you don't fancy cooking after a full day out and about, The Ring O' Bells Pub in St Issey and The Journeyman Restaurant at Mellingey are both about half a mile away, or visit the Pickwick Inn overlooking the Camel Estuary.

Our hosts were very welcoming and informative, the Barn was well presented and had every thing you would need. They even thought of a 13 amp socket outside for your battery charger, wheelchair/scooter. There are many excellent accessible Pubs and Restaurants in the area with lots on places to visit.
