5* Idyllic rural cottage, only 20 minutes from both North & South Cornish coasts

Skylarks is a beautiful detached barn conversion, tucked away down a wooded lane in a peaceful rural setting. Dog-friendly, with full self-catering amenities.
Ideally situated in central Cornwall, and close to the delights of both coasts, and rolling fields, this is the perfect spot for walkers and cyclists. Free parking and secure e-bike charging are also available.
Gold 5 Star Visit England rating 2021/22, and AA Covid Confident accreditation.

There are just two self-catering cottages at Bolotho Barns, so there is both seclusion and great attention to detail. Skylarks comes with all the comfort of a boutique hotel, with a king-size sleigh bed, roll top bath, walk-in shower, fluffy bathrobes and a cosy woodburner. Luxury soft furnishings and organic toiletries add to the relaxing and indulgent atmosphere.

Skylarks has a private patio, equipped with sun-loungers, barbecue and dining area, with steps leading directly to the apple and cherry orchard and our paddock beyond. Guests are free to walk around our land and walk your dogs. You may come across an occasional shy deer as well as the many wild birds who make their home here such as kites, swallows, barnowls and pheasants. The owners live next-door so are on hand to make your stay as perfect as possible!
