"This is one of the very best places we've ever booked."
The owners are so friendly and helpful, but are not at all intrusive.
Everything is well thought out , clean and comfortable.
The sofas, chairs and bed were all so perfect and comfy even though we both suffer with back problems.
We had everything we needed regarding equipment for our stay. This is a beautiful, cosy very peaceful place, but with great beaches, coves, villages and gardens close by.
The garden at the property is beautiful with lovely furniture to use and the owners kindly let us wander the fields and woods on their property too.
We definately want to return and could recommend this place to anyone.
Special thanks to Mary and Tony for helping us out when our car developed a fault and we needed a hand to arrange repairs, their help saved us so much time.
We already miss this place so much. A perfect gem!

"The house was fantastic: very clean, comfortable and well equipped."
Everything was great. The garden was lovely with plenty of space for children to run around. We appreciated the fresh flower arrangements indoors made with flowers from the garden. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would wholeheartedly recommend the property to others.

"A superb, dog friendly property, with a beautiful, massive, private garden."
The conversion is clearly new and done to the very highest of standards, and the owner is friendly and helpful without being obtrusive. The location is perfect for exploring the Lizard and all the very southern tip of Cornwall, but you may find yourself not wanting to wander afar as the farm and environs of the farm are so perfect. Brilliant dog walks on the farm land, but please check with the owner first to find out which fields do not have livestock. I cannot praise Gilly Skyber highly enough.

"Herzlichen Dank für diese wunderschöne Erfahrung und die Gastfreundschaft!"
Das Cottage war noch schöner, als die Bilder es zeigen. Komfortabel, luxeriös, gemütlich und entspannt. Super sauber, es bleiben keine Wünsche übrig, außer dem, länger zu bleiben oder wieder zu kommen.
Wir hatten zwei wunderbare Wochen mit unserem Hund Paul. Das Cottage war ein fantastischer Ausgangspunkt, um Cornwall zu erkunden und danach immer in eine ruhige Umgebung zurückzukehren. Es hätte nicht schöner sein können.
Unsere Gastgeber und auch alle anderen Begegnungen waren sehr freundlich und zugewandt.

"This was a lovely property to stay in."
Very well appointed and contained everything one could want. We were walking the South West coast path and the location was excellent. Gilly Skyber is close to all parts of the Lizard, Penzance and Falmouth, making it a great base.

"Amazing property with underfloor heating and powerful shower."
Spotlessly clean. Outdoor hose for cleaning off wet suits and muddy dogs! The owner was very friendly and gave us plenty of privacy, only popping by once to check everything was OK and if we had everything we needed. Lovely little woodland walk right behind the garden and so many beautiful beaches 15-30 mins drive. We didn't want to leave!!

The owner, Mary, was very welcoming and always contactable if we had any queries. We will be rebooking so that speaks for itself..

"I have stayed in many different accommodations throughout Cornwall and I can honestly say Gilly Skyber barn was excellent, I would highly recommend staying there and I will definitely be returning in the future."
The moment you enter the property you feel comfortable and at home. The kitchen has every possible appliance/utensil available. The appliances are quality items and not cheap. The owners have thought of everything you may need and have provided items to cover your needs.
The owners live next door in their farmhouse but please do not let that put you off, you would never know they are there unless you need them, then they respond promptly
The location is gorgeous and very peaceful with a large private garden for your sole use, fantastic for children or dogs.
Book this place and you will not be disappointed, we had a lovely week there in every respect. Thank you Mary for all your contact.

"Beautiful barn conversion, a really comfortable homely feel."
The owners were on hand if needed but unobtrusive and our privacy was respected. Great place to explore all the beaches and places of interest nearby. There was two car park spaces allocated so that was great. The barn was really clean and had all the utensils we needed for cooking our meals. The garden which was a shared garden was beautiful and nice to sit out in weather permitting. A nice little place to stay to relax.
I would like to point out that although the owners have access to the garden, it is reserved for the guests' exclusive use. The garden is not shared.

"The property was decorated beautifully and the garden facilities were excellent."
The house was extremely clean, the cleanest house I have been too. The owners were very helpful but not intrusive. I feel that another fly killer machine would be useful in the living area. I live near a farm so I’m used the flys but the other couple were very uncomfortable with the fly dirt on their bedding and cloths.
