    There isn’t anything I disliked about the property, Both Mike and Janie’s Hospitality were exceptional, I worked in the hospitality industry for many years and I really cannot find a single fault about my stay.

    The Property is set in the most idillic location of Cornwall, Close to mevagissey’s coast it is a prime spot to relax and unwind for a few days. The Property itself is stunning, you can clearly see how much hard work that the owners have put in over the years. Situated between valleys and rolling fields makes this stay the most tranquil spot I have personally visited.

    It's nothing to do with the Guest House themselves, but it's good to be aware that it is very much in the countryside, and the roads to get there are twisty, narrow, and sometimes not that well maintained. You have to be very aware of driving in the dark, and roads are easily flooded while raining too.

    The Cranny Suite we stayed in was beautifully decorated and stylised, good wifi connection, and the bathroom was so spacious with a lovely deep bath and seperate waterfall shower - felt extremely luxurious! Hot tub was amazing, and we loved having the little fireplace to warm ourselves up after a day of walking. Breakfast was lovely and filling. They stocked the fridge with fresh juice, milk, jams, yogurt and fruit before we arrived, and there was cereal, teas and coffee (plus a coffee machine!). A huge variety of cooked breakfast options available too, and they come knocking on your suite in the morning (8.30-9am) to ask which cooked breakfast you would like. We really liked that all produce is sourced locally. Mike and Janie were extremely welcoming and accommodating, often giving us tips and tricks on where to go. Overall, it was lovely, and well needed break for a late Valentine's/Birthday treat.

    The only thing we didn't like was that we couldn't of stayed for longer!

    The location is amazing, the hosting was the perfect mix of respecting our space and being there if ever required and the Cranny room is beautiful! It's close to some built up areas while also being beautifully secluded, you're 10-15 minutes away from some wonderful beaches and within drivable distance to everything else in Cornwall. 100% worth a visit and there is a good chance we will be back!

    Lower Barns is a gem! A lovely setting carefully curated by two wonderful hosts, Janie and Mike. I stayed after walking 7 days on the South West Coast Path and it was a magical spot to relax and absorb the unique beauty of Cornwall. The room was cozy, vibrant and well accomodated. Loved the giant tub & comfy bed! Breakfast was delicious and the beautiful, unique grounds made for good wandering. Thanks for a wonderful stay -wish I could have stayed longer!!

    It was perfect.

    Toured England/Wales for 3 weeks, staying in about 10 different places, and this was by far the best place. Absolutely magical. Amazing hospitality, with treats upon arrival in our room. Colorful & artistic & whimsical decoration. Loved it. Friendly hosts. And absolutely amazing breakfast every day. Make sure you leave enough time for the breakfasts! Beautiful drive in and out of the inn, wonderful Cornwall towns nearby.
