"Just a quick
message to say a huge thank you to you both for making
our holiday so wonderful. Everything was straight out
of Country Living (which is where I heard about you)
absolutely beautiful and couldn’t have been more
idyllic. Our son Jack was in his element, animals to
feed, playgrounds, the pool, ride ons and other lovely
children to meet up with and chat! There was a great
crowd of people with their families which made it even
nicer. Thank you to you all again."
Mandy Savage
Glynn Barton dates back to the early
18th century and is approached by a long private drive
two miles from the hamlet of Cardinham in North Cornwall.
It is a perfect location to explore Cornwall with its
wealth of attractions, houses and gardens, beautiful
beaches and the highly acclaimed Eden Project. However
with the first class facilities in this peaceful setting
you will be able to relax and know that there is enough
to keep everyone happy without having to get in the
car.
Since making the move from London
in 2000, Andy and Lucy Orr and their young family have
transformed the cluster of cottages into a haven of
safety and tranquillity. Children are free to run around
and parents are free to relax safe in the knowledge
that the nearest public road is almost a mile away and
in between is nothing but lovingly tended gardens (Andy
is a landscape gardener), wonderful facilities and a
host of friendly farm animals. Like the Pied Piper himself
Andy leads mini-guests on his morning rounds hand feeding
the animals and collecting the eggs – the highlight
of many a junior guest’s stay!
All the cottages are unique and
of a high standard excellently restored from the original
stone and slate with beautiful exposed beams. Whatever
time of year they are always warm and welcoming with
central heating and cast iron stoves.
The cottages all boast light, spacious, contemporary
country-style interiors with elegant but comfy sofas,
smooth wooden and slate floors, tongue and groove bathrooms
and shaker style kitchens. They are all very well equipped
with cots, highchairs, built in stairgates, bed guards,
monitors, food blenders and child friendly crockery
and cutlery.
