Brocks Barn

A two-bedroom ground-floor barn conversion at Rew Park House near Sweetshouse, sleeping three with step-free access throughout. The conversion sits on a quiet rural property roughly 2 miles north of Lostwithiel - Cornwall's former medieval capital and self-proclaimed antique capital. It holds a Sykes rating of 3/5 from 76 reviews.

Inside, the barn has a log burner in the main living area, two bedrooms (sleeping two and one), and a single bathroom. The kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher, and a washing machine handles laundry. Wifi and off-road parking are included. The layout is entirely ground floor with no steps - one of the more genuinely accessible options among rural Cornwall barn conversions.

An enclosed garden sits outside with the parking. Carlyon Bay is 10.5km, with a long sandy beach on the edge of St Austell. Readymoney Cove near Fowey is 11.6km - a small sandy cove at the mouth of the Fowey Estuary. Fowey itself is 6 miles south. Lanhydrock - the National Trust estate with formal gardens and a Victorian country house - is 3 miles north. Lostwithiel has antique shops along Fore Street and the Duchy of Cornwall Nursery cafe on the edge of town.

Best for small groups or couples who need step-free accommodation and want an inland central Cornwall base close to Fowey and the Eden Project. Less suited to anyone prioritising beach access - the nearest coast is a 20-minute drive.
