A wonderful place for a honeymoon

My new husband and I stayed at the Barn for our honeymoon. Beccy and Ben were friendly and helpful throughout our stay, and we really enjoyed getting to chat to them! The Barn is lovely, well equipped and with a really calming and well thought out decor. The outdoor space was great for eating (and sunbathing!) and the location was ideal; felt like the middle of nowhere but really close to Mousehole, beautiful beaches and supermarkets. We would love to stay again!
