About the host

Hosted by Bridget Hodgson

Host profile image
The Old Farmhouse has been in the Marsh family since 1996. Most of this time it has been a family holiday home catering at times for up to 20 people! It is still owned by Fred and Brenda Marsh - our parents, both (supposedly) retired now and in their 80's. Fred was originally in telecom electronics and did his National Service in the Royal Navy based at RNAS Culdrose in Cornwall - that's his ship you can see in the picture in the dining room! Day to day running and the taking of bookings is now done by their children (us). Home for Fred and Brenda is in Hertfordshire, after 50 years of living in North London.

Why they chose this property

Family holidays in the 70s and 80s were taken in Cornwall but always under canvas! Fortunately the younger generation rebelled and 'forced' Mum and Dad to invest in bricks and mortar - hence the Old Farmhouse. The place has been treated as a real home from home over the years with four generations of our family there at once, on some occasions - there are some family pictures and a lot of memories around the place. The beaches and the places we visit during our time spent there now are the same as when we were kids - they still hold the same fascination.

What makes this property unique

This is a excellent chill out house - family dining, playing cards, American table tennis and dozing in front of the real fire. This is usually because during the day we are hiking along the coastal paths, playing cricket on the beach or body-boarding in the surf. It's good to then cook a nice dinner and sink a few glasses of wine, as there is enough crockery, cooker space and cutlery to feed all your guests! Finally when we are too tired to cook we get pasties from the world famous Chough Bakery at Padstow or grab a meal at the local Port and Starboard fish and chip restaurant - fantastic quality. Close second is the Merrymoor Inn at Mawgan Porth - don't be put off by the outside the food is very good.
