Bolotho Barns, Skylarks

Skylarks was perfect – quiet, clean and everything we needed. Great place to stay and would love to return soon!

Beautiful barn in the countryside tastefully decorated. Lovely welcome with Cornish food for us. Very thoughtful touches - flowers from the garden, soap in the bathroom and robes in the bedroom. Highly recommend this peaceful hideaway yet close to Truro, The Eden Project and other attractions in the area.

What a wonderful place to spend a couple of days in - actually more than that, so we’ll definitely return for a longer stay. Bolotho Barns has been the perfect base to discover Cornwall’s beauty. It’s a quiet and peaceful hideaway, perfectly designed and built, and equipped with everything a guest may possibly wish for. Frances and Steve have been a very lovely hosts and made us feel more than welcome.

Another wonderful stay. Host thoughtful as always, leaving fresh bread, cakes, biscuits, bitter, eggs and milk! Beautifully kept and we admire the peaceful setting, and how Bolotho fits in with the surrounding countryside. Great base for exploring Cornwall.....Looking forward to organising time off from work to visit again.

‘We had a wonderful stay in Skylarks, very spacious and everything we could have asked for! Thank you for providing us things for our little dog, it was greatly appreciated. We’ve had a lovely relaxing stay here, as well as it being a fantastic point to visit many attractions from. We will certainly be returning again!

What a wonderful week. Absolutely fell in love with Skylarks, from the comfort and décor to the surrounding scenery. Frances is a fantastic host and very thoughtful. Providing the basic groceries and sweet treats was very appreciated. The location is a perfect starting point for the main attractions, and there are lots. Kinda feel sad having to leave but we will be back’

I loved the peace and quiet of Bolotho Barns set at the end of a long lane surrounded by fields. Bramblings and Skylarks are a haven to relax and unwind in, and perfect for couples. Frances really spoils her guests with a fabulous welcome and lots of little touches that make for a very special stay. Easy to get to either the North or South coasts in around 15 minutes, its central location is a real bonus.

Lovely welcoming stay. Fabulous creature comforts provided. Best location for walks and beaches. Dog friendly. Love the treats left for us on arrival. This has been our third visit – we will be back!

Skylarks was one of the best self-catering cottages we have stayed in and there have been a few. Frances made us feel very welcome and was very helpful throughout our stay. The most important boxes were ticked, the bed is comfortable and the shower excellent. There were so many thoughtful touches included such as a cream tea + cake and basic foodstuffs including bread, butter, eggs and milk. We were delighted that our dog was included in the welcome and had a toy box with treats, a towel, a blanket and feeding bowls. There were also walks from the door for early morning and late at night.

We absolutely loved Skylarks and the surrounding area. It's a great base to discover so much of what Cornwall has to offer. The cottage itself is immaculate, well equipped and cosy and easily big enough for 2 people to live there comfortably. We really appreciated the home made scones when we arrived as well as the bread, butter, eggs, cream and jam Frances left for us. Having the Sunday papers delivered by Frances is a treat as are the fresh flowers. Would wholly recommend the cottage for a lovely break.

We have just returned from this delightful barn (Skylarks), Frances was there to greet us when we arrived and had been busy baking scones and cakes. We have had a wonderful time and wanted for nothing, plenty to see as Truro is on your doorstep. The barn is well equipped,clean and very cosy a real home from home, there is so much to see and do with wonderful beaches within easy reach.

We had a fabulous week at Skylarks, furnished to a very high standard and superbly situated for both south and north cornwall. Would highly recommend.

Much more spacious than photos suggest; very comfortably and well furnished/equipped. superb location with especially quick and easy acces to many locations on the Fal estuary. Frances is a charming hostess who made us feel very welcome = especially with the selection of goodies on arrival. The never ending supply of logs for the woodburning stove made our 4 nights stay very relaxing. We will certainly return and tell all our friends .
