New Downs Barn

1862 is no longer with us

If you were looking for cottages like New Downs Barn, how about trying these:

With a south-facing gravelled courtyard and a two acre meadow, this delightful reversed level barn conversion offers plenty of opportunity for making the most of its wonderfully peaceful, river valley location. Across the courtyard from the Owners’ home (your only near neighbours), New Downs Barn has the benefit of being rural in location yet very few miles from the surfing beaches of the north coast, the shops, galleries and restaurants of Truro and the sailing waters of Falmouth. The first floor open plan living-room has a well-equipped kitchen/dining-area and a comfortable sitting-area. From here, exterior steps lead down to the private, sun-trap courtyard and gently sloping meadow beyond, which backs onto the Owners’ unfenced pond (please take care with children). On the ground floor the twin bedroom has use of a good-sized bathroom while the double room has an en suite shower-room. With lovely walks available nearby, beaches at Perranporth and Porthtowan, and several National Trust gardens close by, this is an excellent holiday base. Please note this property has a private water supply, regularly tested.
