Larch Barn

Larch Barn is a three-bedroom barn conversion near Wendron, a quiet inland village between Helston and Redruth. The property sleeps five across three ground-floor bedrooms and two bathrooms, with prices from £702 per week. Dogs are welcome.

All three bedrooms and both bathrooms are on a single level, which suits guests with limited mobility and makes the layout practical for dog owners. The main living area has an open fire - a useful feature for shoulder-season stays when the weather turns. A communal dog-walking field is shared with neighbouring properties, giving dogs a secure off-lead space without leaving the site. The barn has a dishwasher, washing machine, Wi-Fi, and parking. It has 30 guest reviews with a 4-star rating.

The nearest coast takes 15-20 minutes by car. Porthleven Beach is 4.4 miles - a working harbour beach with a strong shore break and a strip of restaurants along the harbour wall. Praa Sands, a sheltered two-mile south-facing beach with reliable summer swimming conditions, is 6 miles. The Lizard is a 20-minute drive south, with the coast path accessible at Kynance Cove and Mullion Cove.

Best for dog owners, walkers, and groups who want a calm inland base with quick access to the south coast and the Lizard without coastal pricing. Less good for families who need a beach within walking distance each day.
