Mr Procter September 2021
Lovely cottage with great views and well equipped if you did want to cook your own meals. It's dog friendly with a dog bowl if you forget to bring yours and there is even a tin of dog treats. The location is central and it's not too far to drive to the sights. We wished we had booked a longer stay and we are missing the comfortable queen sized bed.
Mr Cuskeran June 2021
The pictures don’t do it justice, you need to be there to appreciate the setting and views. A wonderful barn conversion in an excellent location.
Miss Houghton May 2021
Excellent, comfy, cosy cottage with amazing views. Perfect location for getting around alot of Cornwall, the cottage was nice to come back to for some peace and quiet as some resorts very busy whilst we were there. Made good use of the garden and bar b q as had some excellent weather. Lovely local walks too, Owners very welcoming and friendly will certainly recommend
Mrs Peach May 2021

We spent a wonderful 2 weeks at Bolivar Barn & found it a lovely home from home. The views are tremendous & it's well situated for exploring both coasts & Penrith area.
Miss Wilson July 2020
A holiday cottage as it should be clean, comfortable, beautiful area, informative owners and the added bonus dog friendly.
Mr Jones November 2019
A great little barn,ideal location for coast to coast travel and a fantastic view from the barn.
Mr Freeman October 2019
Smashing little holiday cottage, perfect fit for us and our big dog - he loved the wood burner!! The local walks were amazing, so much old mining history in the area. The owners were friendly and helpful, in fact no problems with the let whatsoever! 10/10.
Lots old mine workings and disused quarries dotted around, so watch the dogs. Stick to the trails and you can't go wrong. We had a great time and would use again.
Mr Budgen September 2019
Our second visit to this very good accommodation, which is very comfortable and in a good central position. The hosts are excellent and nothing is too much trouble.
Mr Dellar September 2019
Our second visit! Location is great for touring around. Cottage is well equipped, comfortable and warm! Only disadvantage is no WiFi but can get 4g (though this eats up your data allowance). Would recommend.

Mrs Lucas April 2019
Lovely clean modern property in a great location for exploring Cornwall. Although in the grounds of the owners home you get loads of privacy, and because it is set up high you get great views across the countryside - which even on a dull, rainy day, it still feels cheerful.
Ms Norman January 2019
Incredible views - well appointed and comfortable cottage.
Mr England November 2018
The only cottage to which we have returned. Set in a very quiet and peaceful location, with beautiful views.
Mr Partington September 2018
Like being back to nature, but with the comforts. Quiet rural location, truly dark at night. Central location, on a clear day at the top of the hill behind, you can see both coasts. Convenient paths in the owners grounds for those early and late night doggy trots! Wonderful welcome from all the family, including Walter, and the horses. Well appointed and modern, eco efficient, nice hot shower with plenty of water. Comfortable bed with lovely linen, soft towels even a light in the wardrobe. Active or private break would happily and honestly recommend Bolivar Barn for any holiday or break. 5* hotel standard without the other guests.
Mr Dellar September 2018
Owners very friendly, a very nice comfortable property, ideally placed for everything we wanted to visit.

Comfortable cottage, perfect for two, in a great location. Although in grounds of the owners home - the property is completely detached and private, and very peaceful.
Ms Earing July 2017
We picked the cottage for its location and for being dog friendly and it was the perfect choice. With stunning views and walks close by I would not hesitate to recommend the Barn to people with and without a dog. Lovely and clean and very comfortable. We were made to feel very welcome, a great week.

We cannot recommend Bolivar Barn enough. Clean and tastefully presented, you will not want to get out of the comfortable bed, truly wonderful! Great outdoor area for the dog, with spectacular views! Close to both coasts, we have already discussed when we will return :)
Mr Francischelli December 2015
Bolivar Barn is amongst picturesque settings, your stay will be made extra special by the kindness of the owners who will go that little bit extra to ensure that you everything you need as well as little extras. We stayed over New Year and the owners couldn't have been more helpful in deciding how to spend it. The Barn is completed to a high standard with perfect facilities. We will be sure to visit Bolivar Barn again soon.
Mrs Sievering November 2015
We had a lovely stay in this surprisingly spacious yet cosy cottage with amazing views into the valley. The cottage is tastefully furnished with modern finishes and a log burner. The large bedroom and bathroom added to the feeling of spaciousness and the entire cottage was spotlessly clean. The hosts were friendly & welcoming and the cottage was situated perfectly for sightseeing and day trips.We'll be back!!
Angie & Blair Sievering
Mrs Witton September 2015
Bolivar Barn is a very good location for visiting all parts of Cornwall. The view from the barn is very impressive. The owners are very friendly. We would like to stay there again.
Mrs Dendl August 2015
the water-preasure at the shower is very low
Reply from Classic Cottages
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry that the shower pressure wasn't as powerful as you'd have liked - the water pressure is sadly out of the Owner's control. We're glad that you found the barn to be a cosy, quiet and comfortable spot for your holiday. Tanya, Customer Support
Mrs Tilston July 2015
Beautiful cottage, excellent location and friendly / accommodating family on site.
Mrs Carr May 2015
This is a cosy, clean and comfortable cottage with a well equipped kitchen. The sofa, chair and bed were all very comfortable and the overall feeling of the cottage was welcoming. It was a nice place to return to in the evening after a day of sightseeing.
This was one of the best cottages we have ever stayed in ( and we have stayed in many) although the shower was disappointing, this could be due to overall water pressure, it was not a major issue and did not spoil our enjoyment of the cottage.

We're sorry that the shower wasn't quite as powerful as you're used to - the water pressure is sadly out of the Owner's control, but we know that she's very grateful for your comments and delighted that you enjoyed your time at her cottage.

Mrs Neely May 2015
We were reluctant to leave this beautiful and comfortable property. Welcoming touches were appreciated. It was so central to the area that we love. Can't wait to come again.
Mr Davies Paddock May 2015
This was our second stay at Bolivar Barn, it impressed us so much the first time we looked forward to our return visit and we enjoyed it just as much. Bolivar Barn is a lovely cottage and is perfectly situated for visiting both North and South Cornwall.
Mr Griffiths April 2015
We found Bolivar barn very comfortable and ideally located for visiting the north and south coasts - and anywhere in between. We love the view across the valley from the window when eating at the table. We had a very relaxing holiday and are planning our return.
Mrs Ramsden April 2015
Perfect cottage all the equipment within the cottage was just perfect, home from home! Lovely and clean nicely laid out good bathroom, kitchen and a lovely huge comfortable bed. The only thing I would have liked was a secure area for the dogs. But there was no traffic it was just open to their property and I didn't want to let them go on their land. But no other complaints at all, it was super.
Mrs Baker November 2014
We had a fantastic break and the cottage was really well equipt and fantastically decorated. The owner, Hayley was really accomodating anf left flowers and biscuits on our arrival which made our stay even more special.
Mrs Futcher October 2014
We spent a very relaxing week in this cosy, warm and well equipped cottage. Stunning views and easy access to all local tourist destinations.
Mr Gale September 2014
The owners had gone that extra mile to make sure everything was perfect for our stay. Could not fault it. Perfect place to tour that part of Cornwall.Being National Trust members we were able to visit seven places during our stay of a week. All in easy reach. The views from Bolivar Barn were stunning. Being walkers we were only minutes away from walking the Mining walks.Would be very happy to sing its praises to friends and family.
Mrs Coughtrey August 2014
We would like to thank Hayley and Jason for making us feel so welcome and comfortable in their lovely new cottage. We had a delightful week in a great spot to explore South Cornwall.
