Perfect house for a perfect holiday!

Arriving at Mowhay we were amazed by the wonderful view of the house and the 'garden'! Everything was superb and no details were missed, we couldn't have asked for anything more. We were relaxed the minute we got through the door and knew we were in for a great holiday. Can't thank Luxury Coastal enough for allowing us to stay at Mowhay. We will be back next year if allowed!

The fireplace in the larger living room was wonderful...we bought firewood locally and cleaned and reset it every day and it became a focal point for enjoying the beauty of inside and outside with all of the windows onto the nature of the property. Also the kitchen was super...really enjoyed our time in the house!

Lovely spacious house in beautiful setting

Mowhay Barn is a lovely spacious well maintained house set in beautiful grounds. We loved the hot tub and playing baseball in the huge garden. The various downstairs rooms meant our 3 generation family had plenty of space to spread out and enjoy the huge book and games selection. Highly recommended.

September Family break

We found Mowhay Barn a delight to enjoy a family holiday. Quality throughout, most comfortable rooms & everything you could need whilst there. Close proximity to great Cornish locations & dinning opportunities near by! Only two negatives for us, the barn is very close to a busy road so the constant traffic noise both in the garden & in the bedrooms took some getting use to! Dissapointing not to receive a welcome pack!

we had a wonderful break at Mowhay Barn

This was our second stay at Mowhay Barn and we had a glorious stay with lovely warm weather The house is so comfortable and with everything you need and the spacious grounds which are kept very tidy gives lots of space for the grandchildren to play in. we did experience a new colony of honey bees arriving at the house too. We informed the company and it was dealt with quickly-apparently due to Cornwall not cutting back the grass/flower sides/borders of the roads and fields-looked very pretty thanks you

Great for family

Mowhay is a beautiful holiday accommodation. There’s so much space downstairs for family to gather but also have space to themselves. Bedrooms are lovely and master suite bathroom is great. The grounds are extensive , it’s a shame dogs aren’t accepted as would be great. The hot tub is a great addition especially as we had lovely weather. As the outside is so lovely it’s a shame no comfy seating is available , only the large wooden dinning table & chairs. I would also say there needs to be some BBQ tools to use and to be able to then clean with a BBQ brush or similar. The keys in the under stairs cupboard need sorting and better labelling it took us ages to try and find the key for the door to the barn steps, finally found in the back of a drawer in the bedroom ( this is a fire exit so needs to be kept in the door). other improvements would a few black bags for rubbish as only 1 left and toilet paper as only 2 in each bathroom would struggle if fully occupied with 8 people. I think as it’s marketed as a luxury level and priced as such, the welcome pack is poor compared with other rentals we have had. Other rentals at this price point have left , milk, bottle of wine, crusty loaf , pasta and sauce. The write up also says sea views from the summer house, I’d say possibly with binoculars! Also some people need to now there is a fairly well used road alongside the house for traffic noise in master bedroom. The furniture choices and decor are beautiful ,and provides a very comfortable stay.

Hi Sharon, Thank you for reviewing your stay at Mowhay Barn. We are pleased to hear the property was beautiful and you and your family enjoyed it. I have raised all the points mentioned with the owners and property managers. We do apologise the keys were not kept in the correct space, we will ensure this is now checked on each changeover. There should have been enough bin bags left for you so we will ensure this is done going forward. The housekeeping team only leave 2 toilet rolls per bathroom to last the first few days, it is then up to guests to replenish as they are not supplied for the full duration of the stay. We do show the location of the property on the map being close to a road, but we will look to remove the sea views from the listing as the sea can only be seen from the summerhouse. Thank you for raising these points, the owners strive to constantly improve the house each year and rely on the housekeeping team to maintain our high standards. We do hope to welcome you to stay with us again in the future. Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal team
