"Lovely spacious open plan barn conversion."
Easy access on/off A30. House was a good fit for our group of 4 plus 2 dogs. Thank you for a lovely stay.

"Lovely barn conversion very spacious and light."
Well equipped and dog friendly! Quite central for touring the local area and lovely pub within walking distance which serves very good food! The secure rear garden area is also brilliant for enjoying the sun and eating outside as well as great for our four legged friends! Brilliant having two double bedrooms downstairs and two upstairs for anyone with mobility issues as well as the downstairs walk in shower and w.c. The kitchen is well equipped and laid out with everything you need! We personally found our mattress a little soft as we both need firm to orthopaedic but nothing ever compares to your own bed unfortunately! Maybe a safety gate would be an asset on the stairs for children/ dogs although we improvised with two stools! The locals we met were friendly and helpful, the moors are a five minute drive away and large supermarket ten minutes drive away too. We did notice that some drivers come off the A30 into the village at speed worth bearing in mind if you have young children although the same happen in our local village too! Nice touch was milk biscuits and a bottle of plonk in the fridge! Our weather was nice which obviously helped but two tv’s if it rains ! The main bedroom upstairs is lovely with great views and a very large custom made wooden bed ! Could be problems deciding who has this room lol

"We had a great weekend stay here, there was everything we needed, a lovely enclosed garden for the dogs."
We was not far from everything we had planned, which was a bonus. If we come back we definitely look at booking again.
Thankyou Property Owner

"We had the most enjoyable holiday in the beautifully converted old cattle barn, the property is spacious with lovely kitchen and bathrooms."
Great for our family group of 3 generations with dogs. Well positioned for exploring the area and walking in the wood nearby. We can recommend the Eliot Arms a few miles away for excellent food and service. I’m aware the owners are new to renting and will be contacting them to make a few suggestions for some additional items to be added to the property to make a holiday stay even more comfortable.
Thanks for your feedback Property Owner

The property
The Old Cattle Barn is a lovely, stone-built, barn conversion nestled just outside of the quaint, historical market town of Launceston in Cornwall. Located within Bodmin Moor and a scenic drive away from the sea, this property offers the best of a nature-filled and seaside holiday for families, groups and furry-friends.
Be welcomed into a stylishly-decorated home with stone wall accents and rustic wooden furnishings; in the open-plan space you'll find a spacious kitchen with ample counter and hob space for those large family feasts, enjoy it all around the dining table, then cuddle up with your loved ones in the sitting room for family movie night.
Open up the patio doors and make use of the seating areas in the rear garden during those warmer months, watch the kids and dogs run around the vast lawn or pour yourselves a glass of wine for a late night chat on the bench swing.
Ready yourself for a day of exploring Cornwall as wash up in either bathroom before slipping between soft sheets to get some rest.
Venture out of your home away from home to pick up some essentials at the nearby village shop or if you don't feel like cooking, head to The Kings Head Hotel for a classic and hearty pub meal.
Get to know the local town of Launceston and visit the 1200s English Heritage sit Launceston Castle, head over to Lawrence House, a museum with exhibits on the town's history and for a more thrilling activity, go to Trethorne Leisure Park where you'll find a climbing wall, a bowling alley, a farm with pony rides and more.
Drive down to Bodmin, a town steeped in fascinating history and visit Bodmin Jail an 18th-century prison museum with exhibitions and overnight ghost walks, hikers you'll love a nature walk in Cardinham Woods with its vibrant greenery, wildlife and a forested valley, then end the day with a well-deserved feast at the family-friendly Callywith Table Table.
The Old Cattle Barn offers a great opportunity to visit the wonders of Cornwall.
Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.
