  • "The Stables was spotlessly clean and very comfortable."

    The beds were very comfortable and having the heated towel rail on all day was much appreciated. The cottage was very well equipped, everything we needed was there. We have stayed in several cottages all over the country and this was the best for comfort, cleanliness, and decor. We would recommend it without reservation .

  • "The Stable is a first class property, with high quality finishes and attention to detail that is unusual in a holiday property."

    The Boskensoe Barns location is quiet and picturesque as is the village of Mawnan Smith and it was an ideal base to explore Cornwall. On arrival we were greeted with a ‘welcome pack’ of some basic groceries, which was a lovely touch. Tea, coffee, washing detergents (hand/machine and clothes washing machine) were provided. The property benefits from comfortable beds and lounge seating, a built-in Sonos system connected to Spotify, BBQ and outdoor seating. The only thing missing is a the ability to make ‘real’ coffee, such as a Nespresso type machine, but that is by no means a fault and just a personal wish! I’d highly recommend this property and indeed I hope to return one day.

  • "Not our first stay at The Stables, it never fails to live up to expectations."

    It’s clean, stylish yet comfortable. The beds are very comfortable. As they accept dogs the dog exercise area is a huge enclosed space for them to have a quick run around before going out for the beautiful walks in this area or before turning in for the evening. This place has everything that you will need for your stay. Very helpful and friendly owners.

  • "We had the most amazing holiday in The Stable at Boskensoe Barns."

    So much thought has been put into these barns, our stay was truly incredible. ❤️ We arrived to a welcome bottle of prosecco to toast our familymoon, along with flowers and a tray of local Cornish goodies! Bridget also popped over to say hello which was lovely. The accommodation is amazing, comfortable, with a luxury feel. We had brought all the usual holiday essentials but found we needed nothing, it was all provided, tea coffee sugar, washing up liquid, dish washer tablets, washing machine pods, everything! We spent most of the summer evenings sat out front. Our little ones enjoyed the park on site and made friends with our lovely neighbours in the barn next door. They enjoyed looking at the cows in the next field and watching the tractor go by in the evening. The location is perfect, it's so quiet you would think you were in the middle of nowhere, but it's just a short drive to the local beaches, Falmouth, gardens etc. The local village shop and pub are just a little walk away. If I could give any suggestion for improvement, it would be to expand on the park area a little (some swings etc would be great), and a hot tub at each barn would be amazing! We enjoyed our stay so much we are already looking at visiting again next year. It was our first visit to Cornwall, we have fallen in love with Falmouth and Boskensoe Barns! x

    All the mod cons were a great touch we just didn’t use them much as we were out all the time (would be really useful on wet days) The barns were so quiet, was lovely hearing the cows in the mornings. So many extra touches that really make the difference-washing/dishwasher tablets, welcome tray full of wonderful goodies, dog bowls-forgot ours -biscuits and bags etc, coffee tea the list goes on. Just fabulous!

    How a previous customer in a review said ‘style over comfort’ together with other disparaging comments is unbelievable. The settee and chairs were extremely comfortable as were the beds.

It was a great location, we had a brilliant stay and I totally recommend this venue.

    Reviewed by Elizabeth5.0Sep 2021

  • "The barns are beautiful but very much "style over substance"."

    Probably designed by a man and never slept in by the owners for an extended period I would imagine. Eg: no hooks to hang anything, no storage space (you really need a dresser somewhere!), not enough tea towels, one small drying rack for clothes, a TERRIBLY designed sink and drying space for dishes, some of the kitchen utensils are great (like the knives) others severely lacking (like the scissors). High chair and cot provided but no baby bath. And no bath on the premises. Washed baby in bucket he was far too big for. Ventilation of bedrooms is rather poor so you're always too hot and the lighting is -again - beautiful to look at but either too low, too high, you bash your head on it etc. This place has HUGE potential and the owners seemed lovely but they need to live there for two weeks and then iron out the cracks. Hated working with Sykes as their customer services was constantly lacking (their staff felt grossly under trained to me) but it is what it is. Overall - a lack of self awareness from the booking company and the property owners.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry you didn't find The Stable to your satisfaction and without any substance. We can assure you that it is very well equipped when compared to other properties in a similar price bracket. There were a lot of items absent from the property when you stayed, owing to their removal due to the difficulties in cleaning within Covid guidelines. This included throws, scatter cushions, DVDs, books, games, decorative ornaments and more. These will be returned as soon as possible under the Covid guidelines we must adhere to. This may also have been the reason why you felt the interior was "probably designed by a man". In fact, all our barn interiors were designed by a woman at a local, but nationally renowned interior design specialist. Our architect was also female. You are correct to surmise that we have not stayed in the barn ourselves, but we do live right next door and clean the properties every week. The same designer also had a hand in designing our own house, so we are sure we have a good idea how the property functions. Regarding storage, we have wardrobes in each bedroom and a large built in cupboard in the living area. Also in this cupboard are hooks to hang coats etc. Tea towels as well as tea, coffee, sugar, washer/dishwasher tablets, toilet rolls and a welcome basket are supplied. As the property is primarily self-catered, the amounts supplied are intended to supplement, not replace the items guests bring themselves. There is one drying rack, but this is supplemental to the washer/dryer, which obviously dries the bulk of clothes. We are unsure how the sink/drainer area is terrible. The Stable is a two bedroom property and the sink is larger than standard. There is also a dishwasher (and supplied tablets) to take the majority of the dishes. We are sorry the scissors were absent. They have now been replaced. The Stable is well advertised by Sykes/Cornish Cottage Holidays as having two en-suite shower rooms. A bath is not mentioned. We don't know of many properties that provide a baby bath. When you arrived and found a baby bath was not available, you yourself said that a bucket would be OK. If it was known in advance that a baby bath would be a requirement, we would have advised that you brought your own. Both of the bedrooms in The Stable have opening windows for ventilation; one a double window, the other a pair of doors opening on to a patio. In hot weather we do accept properties can get a little hot. Modern building regulations mean buildings are focused on retaining heat, rather than being easily cooled. We will however investigate the possibility of free-standing fans for use in hotter months. The lighting in The Stable is designed to be flexible. Most lights are dimmable, so the brightness is variable. There are bedside lamps, a reading lamp in the living area, outside lights, uplighters, downlighters, beam lights. A light for every occasion! Overall we feel that over the four years The Stable has been available for holiday makers, the cracks have been mostly ironed out. We are well aware of issues brought to our attention and deal with them accordingly. The letting figures of all of our barns and the percentage of return bookings we see also give us confidence that we are aware of what our guests expect. Property Owner
