Kingfisher Barn, stunning location, private hot tub, tennis, river frontage
Kingfisher Barn is a multi-award-winning attractive stone converted 4-bedroom barn providing superior accommodation for up to 8 people. Set over 2 floors, the top floor boasts a stunning large open plan lofty beamed ceiling kitchen / living area (approximately 5m x 10m) with oak flooring, dining table and a fitted kitchen with all modern conveniences. Outside there’s a private garden area with al-fresco dining, BBQ and private hot tub, a tree perfect for children to climb on and herbs for adding to your dinner.
The 4 bedrooms have comfortable beds with luxury Egyptian cotton linen. 3 bedrooms can be configured with either a king sized or twin singles, and the fourth has a full sized bunk bed.
There are so many things to do here and out and about, but for any rainy days, the farm has a games room plus there are board games, jigsaws, books available in the barn (more in the games room) plus a large TV with surround sound.
In the words of a recent guest: "better in real life than you could imagine! The farm was just stunning, the comfort & interior were exquisite & the hot tub was the cherry on top. Couldn’t recommend enough. Absolutely stunning, dreamy, beautiful!"
Lower Marsh Farm, Landulph, is set within an Area of Outstanding National Beauty on the River Tamar. A former Duchy of Cornwall renowned daffodil farm, Lower Marsh Farm is on the outskirts of the pretty village of Landulph benefiting from the secluded feel of being a million miles from City life but with the convenience of being striking distance of modern amenities. On the farm there are Highland Cattle, chickens, ducks, peacocks and lots of wildlife (including deer in the woods), so normally plenty of zero food mile eggs are available!
Within the grounds you can enjoy a game of tennis, your own private hot tub, games room (with table tennis table), orchard with a hammock for relaxing and admiring the view, basketball hoop, private woodland and shingle river beach (tidal and yes, swimming is possible!). During the warmer months, our heated outdoor swimming pool is open and you can book sessions (for additional cost) in the pool.
The farm grounds include a magical Salt Marsh Nature Reserve. This rare salt marsh habitat boasts an interesting array of flora and fauna. With herons, buzzards, egrets, kingfishers, pheasants, owls and bats galore. Lower Marsh Farm offers the nature lover around 40 acres of opportunities for rambling, bird watching, or just enjoying the peace and quiet of the Cornish countryside.
In easy reach are beaches, fantastic gardens, and lots of activities for all ages. Our guests can purchase discounted tickets for the Lost Gardens of Heligan.
Children and babies are welcome and we have a cot, high chair and stair-gate available by prior arrangement (plus we can provide a baby bath, kitchen cupboard door locks etc). We have ample parking and storage areas for bikes and surf boards.
You are welcome to bring 1 or 2 well-behaved dogs by prior arrangement (we apply a £20 charge per dog to cover the additional cleaning requirements).
