Welcome to stunning Carthew Barn.
If you love to entertain then this is the perfect place for everyone to all get together whatever the season.
Wrap up warm and enjoy a bracing walk along one of the many coast paths before you head back and rustle up a hearty supper in the well-equipped kitchen before relaxing on the super-comfy sofa in front of the toasty wood-burner.
The main bedroom oozes luxury.
Relax on the lawned area in front of gorgeous Carthew Barn - bring your book and a beverage....
Or, just gaze at the stunning view.
From dawn until dusk you can enjoy your wonderful surroundings.
The fabulous fire pit for dreamy evenings toasting marshmallows.
The stunning open plan living area. Steps lead up to a little landing and behind the curtain is an internal door, which is shared with the neighbouring barn. However this door is locked at all times.
The gorgeous kitchen is very well-equipped.
The kitchen is full of light thanks to all the glass and windows. The stairs take you down to the ground floor.
The barn has been designed to make the most of the estuary view, with three large bay windows, all with built-in window seats , so don’t forget your binoculars.
The cute breakfast-bar is perfect for morning coffee and sweet pastries.
The breakfast-bar also doubles up as a fabulous work station.
Snuggle up in front of the roaring wood-burner with a good book.
Five steps lead up to the internal door, which is always locked.
For a more 'fine dining' experience, a trip to the exquisite Rick Stein's seafood restaurant is a must, so ladies, don't forget to pack an evening dress and heels.
Don't forget to pack a warm hat for those brisk beach walks.
Bedroom 2 has twin beds and is an oasis of calm in creams and greys. Whilst the doors do not open, opening the little windows at the top of the doors will let in the fresh air.
The lavish en suite bathroom wouldn’t look out of place in a five-star hotel.
Pretty bedroom 3 has a double bed and enjoys views across the lawn. Whilst the patio doors do not open, the windows at the top of the doors can be opened to let in a gentle breeze. The door leads into the utility-room.
The desk is perfect if you have some work to do whilst on holiday.
The super stylish family bathroom has a bath and enclosed shower.
Run a deep bath and soak away the sand and sea salt.
Bedroom 3 is light and airy.
The super useful utility-room leads off from bedroom three.

Some feathered friends may share this far-reaching view with you.
Constantine bay is stunning in the summer but as beautiful in the winter when you're wrapped up warm and cosy.
Padstow at night is very romantic, treat yourself to a candlelight supper and afterwards a stroll around the harbour to watch the sunset.
Trevone beach is a short drive away.
Take the coast path to Daymer Bay and stop and have a paddle.
The Camel Trail can either be cycled or walked. You have two routes to choose from Wadebridge to Padstow, or Wadebridge to Bodmin, or maybe just do both?
Bishop's Wood is part of the Woodland Trust and is great day out for cyclists and walkers.

The six of us spent a wonderful week at Carthew Barn. The location cannot be beaten, so close to Wadebridge, but very quiet, with a wonderful view to the Camel estuary. The house is very well equipped and we did not miss anything. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Two fridges! A big dining table! The bedrooms are also very nice, even luxurious, particularly the master bedroom. We loved the showers! As we did not have time to use the pizza oven or the fire pit we have to come back (rather sooner than later) !...

Everything was absolutely perfect from the minute we arrived at Carthew Barn. This is the first holiday house we said we would be back to after the first day! Even the morning visit outside the bedroom by the local Pheasant and Guinea Fowl made it perfect! We will be back!...

We really enjoyed our week’s stay in this wonderful secluded and peaceful barn conversion set in many acres well away from noisy roads. I mastered the log burner, though the under floor heating kept us very comfortable during a bright but cool and windy March week. The Barn is very well equipped and, after a little head scratching, the ceramic hob and oven served well, as did the twin fridges, freezer, dish washer, and other kitchen equipment. Everything was spotless as one would hope during these C19 days. Our host Charlotte was very welcoming and couldn’t have been more helpful. In short we absolutely loved our stay. Cornwall off season is wonderful, especially when the sun shines. To be recommended....

For anyone looking to stay in a perfectly designed and restored stone barn, in a quiet location with distant views over the River Camel, Carthew Barn is the place for you. Our stay could not have been better, as we were within easy access of everything both North and South Cornwall has to offer. We will definitely be back to book again in the not too distant future....
