The Long Barn (GLP) brims with character and charm, with a split-level living arrangement and cosy open kitchen with a lofty beamed ceiling. The garden has rattan furniture where you can sit and relax and enjoy the far reaching countryside views. The Stable (TE1) has an open-plan living area which has been designed to take in the full height of the building with an exposed beamed ceiling, a wood-burning stove and French doors leading to its own garden with extensive countryside views.

The properties are close to the attractive village of Godolphin Cross in the beautiful Cornish countryside.

Tastefully furnished and decorated. Well equipped. Nice touches like bottle of wine and some milk on arrival. Superb location for multiple attractions. Lovely owners onsite always willing to help with anything.
We enjoyed our stay at Gwedna Barns. Beautiful beaches and the coastal path were good to reach by car. Shopping was easy in Helston. All in all a very good choice.

There was everything you needed in which to cook.
The garden was good to have with lovely views over the country side.
Owners were very nice but left us to it for the week and would definitely visit again.

Blissfully quiet.
Blissfully quiet. Lovely views across the adjoining field. Well equipped including little things like salt and pepper, emergency tea bags and coffee. Easy access into Helston for shopping which has a big Tesco and a Lidl. Friendly, helpful owners. Good parking right outside the door.

We had the most amazing Christmas holiday in the long barn.
We had the most amazing Christmas holiday in the long barn. Everything we needed was provided and as it was Christmas whislt we were away I was especially anxious what would be available to use etc. When we arrived there was mince pies, wine and milk in the fridge. Even a gingerbread man for our little girl.
It was cosy comfortable and even had board games and a great selection of DVDs for us all to watch. Everything was perfect and Geoff and Tonia were there if we had needed anything. We are definitely planning to come back again
Thanks for the best Christmas holiday!
