Delightful Hayle Rental

For a relaxing break in the Cornish countryside, this beautifully converted barn gives you the best of both worlds: peaceful rural surroundings on a working farm and easy access to some of West Cornwall’s most loved destinations. The two-bedroom property is ideal for couples, small families or friends travelling with a dog. Hayle (3.5 miles) has a fantastic mix of shops, cafes and restaurants, along with a long sandy beach stretching across St Ives Bay. If water sports sound appealing, you can try your hand at surfing or paddleboarding. Kids and animal lovers will love visiting Hayle’s wildlife park. Don’t miss a trip to the artistic seaside town of St Ives (9 miles), famed for its galleries, beaches and winding streets lined with independent shops. To the south, Penzance (11.5 miles) is perfect for exploring the iconic St Michael’s Mount or taking a dip in the historic Jubilee Lido.

You’ll enter this stone property through a utility and lobby area where you can leave your shoes and coats. From here, the accommodation opens into a bright and sociable open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining area with lofty vaulted ceilings. Settle into the comfortable seating for cosy evenings in front of the Smart TV and sit down to leisurely breakfasts and dinners at the dining table. The interiors are light, tasteful and welcoming throughout, with ceiling beams framing the space and inspiring artwork on the walls. An inner hallway leads to the sleeping quarters, which include a king-size bedroom with its own Smart TV and a charming bunk bedroom ideal for younger guests. A contemporary family bathroom featuring a shower over the bath and WC completes the interior.

Outside, the patio terrace is a lovely private spot for enjoying Cornwall’s fresh air from morning through to evening. You can start the day with coffee in the sunshine, tuck into relaxed meals at the dining table or stretch out with a book on the sun loungers. You’ll also benefit from private parking for one car.
