The Old Farm Cottage
Mylor Bridge near Truro & Falmouth

The Old Farm Cottage is a beautiful farm building, which has been comprehensively but sympathetically refurbished using existing traditional Cornish materials, locally sourced or found here on the farm. It forms the focus of Little Goonreeve Farm, a traditional small farm, originally mentioned in the Doomsday Book, and hardly changed since the 1950’s.

The cottage comfortably sleeps 3 to 4 in two separate bedrooms. There is a spacious master bedroom with a king-size bed and travel cot (if required).

The second bedroom has a large bunk bed and tranquil views onto the garden and surrounding farmland.

The living/dining area is a generous double height vaulted space with a stylish modern kitchen and French windows leading onto a private decked terrace, perfect for al fresco dining. There is a traditional Cornish garden and open access to 20 acres of beautiful farmland.

More Details on The Old Farm Cottage

The cottage has been converted to be comfortable and luxurious. The oak floor open-planned sitting room is clean and modern, but does include interesting details such as original oil paintings and a small library of classic books with a Cornish theme.

The sitting area centres around a large log burner set in a granite fireplace. This is a new generation log burner that triple burns the wood to provide maximum heat output but is also economic on the quantity of wood needed. (A complimentary basket full of logs is provided on arrival). There is a wide screen digital TV with freeview, and internet access.

The kitchen is well appointed with a dishwasher, slate work surfaces and integrated appliances.

The bathroom is compact but luxurious with a fully pressurized 'Megaflo' water system delivering a powerful shower or bath to soak away the activities of the day.

All linen is provided (Egyptian Cotton) and 'fluffy' generous towels. (Guests bring their own beach towels).

Great thought has gone into the design and features of our cottage to give our visitors a comfortable 'home from home 'but to retain the humble charm of a traditional tenanted farm. The yard is shared with The Granite Barn (separately available to sleep 6). The two buildings are far enough apart to ensure privacy but could also make an ideal booking for two families or a group wishing to holiday together.

Thought has also gone into the environmental impact of introducing additional dwellings into a rural setting and the impact of the carbon footprint of our visitors. Solar water heaters, super insulation and general sustainability have all been factored in to make this dwelling as environmentally friendly as possible.
