Overview
Description
Windmill Barn was converted in 2002 and is a traditional Cornish granite barn on a quiet country lane in an unspoilt rural hamlet. Just 3 miles from either the surfing beach at Sennen Cove or the more sheltered sandy bay at Porthcurno next to the Minack Theatre. There is an enclosed south facing garden with lawn, ample parking, barbecue, picnic table, rotary clothes dryer, palm trees, exotic plants and extensive views over the countryside towards Lands End. The double bedroom (with kingsize bed), twin bedroom and bunk bedroom (with full size bunk beds) are all on the ground floor, along with the bathroom (with toilet and bath with shower over) and additional separate toilet. The spacious kitchen includes a large dining table with 6 dining chairs, a washing machine and a dishwasher. A wooden staircase leads to the upstairs living room, which is also reached via the external granite steps. There is comfortable seating for 6, a 32"" colour TV, a DVD player and a selection of books. There is currently no WiFi but mobile phone reception is good.Just 2 miles from Lands End, the property is ideally situated for exploring both the dramatic and rugged north coast with its Atlantic rollers and fascinating mining heritage, as well as the contrasting picturesque coves on the south coast such as Lamorna and nearby Porthgwarra which featured in the recent BBC TV series Poldark. With two coasts to choose from, walkers can enjoy exploring a long stretch of the South West coast path. For those wanting to explore by car the resorts of Mousehole, Penzance and St Ives are all a short drive away.
For those wishing to bring a young family a travel cot and high chair are available on request. There is a safety gate at the top of the stairs.
Well behaved dogs are welcome (up to 2) by agreement with the owners and at no additional cost. The garden is enclosed by gates and a stone wall. There are dog bowls for your pet to use.
The bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen are all on the ground floor, but we would not recommend this property for the disabled as the main living area is upstairs. Care should be taken when using the wooden staircase from the kitchen to the living area as it can be slippery in the wrong footwear.
We .operate a SUNDAY CHANGEOVER.
Shorter stays of 4 nights or more may be possible outside of the main holiday season. Please contact the owner to enquire.

Sad to leave
By Keelagh on 17-Jul-2025What a lovely holiday- sad to leave. Windmill barn gave us the perfect base for our break. Great space and location- a real home from home. Great communication and support during the whole process. Hope to return in the future. Many thanks.
Friendly host
By Rebecca on 26-Jul-2026Jane was a very friendly host and she called me to see that check in had gone smoothly which I thought was lovely. The house really needs updating as it is a little tired, paint and soft furnishings and carpet all needs updating. There was also a slight musty smell in some parts and lots of cobwebs. These are all easily fixed and I do think for the location that the price was very good even though it needs a refresh it was still a well connected place yet very peaceful. You can get to some of the best beaches in under 5 minutes from the barn and also for walkers it would be an amazing base. We would like to come back if it has a refresh and update, thank you Jane. Response from Jane Glad you liked the location Rebecca. Redecoration is already planned. Damaged items are always replaced, but to keep the cost affordable there are currently no plans for an update.
Great stay
By Obed on 06-Sep-2026We had a great stay. The property was comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was friendly, responsive, and made check-in very easy. The location was convenient and quiet. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to other guests.
