Great cliff top House

We had an idyllic week at Chy Barnett , wonderful isolated situation with amazing views of the sea . We loved scrambling down to quiet Treen Beach to swim saw dolphins, seals & the choughs were above on the cliffs . Also it is so near the South West coastal path (Salt Path)which we used to walk to the Tinners Pub in Zennor …. so nice .We loved the property & Rupert was so helpful with information & returning a jacket we had left !!! We certainly hope to come back & enjoy this house again.

Fab!!!

We love Chy Barnet, and have stayed there quite a few times over the years - would have stayed there more but it’s always booked up! It’s in a stunning bit of Cornwall and has amazing sea views from nearly every room. Fabulous hikes straight from the door. The coast path is a few minutes walk down the track, and more hikes into moorland etc up the track. The house itself is warm, clean, bright and comfortable with everything you need, and the owner is very helpful if you have any problems during your stay. There’s a good pub/ restaurant up at the end of the track, and another good pub, and recently a Moomaid of Zennor ice cream (best ice cream ever!) and tea shop, in Zennor which is just a few miles away. Love love love this place! Would really recommend booking if it’s free - just don’t book it when we want it!!

Amazing house in a stunning location

This really is a fantastic house in a truly marvellous location. All you need for a superb holiday in Cornwall, close to so many great parts of the county but a nice secluded place to get away from it all. The first of many stays for us here I'm sure!

About the host

Hosted by Rupert

I am a financial copywriter living between London and Shropshire. Chy Barnett has been in our family for four generations. I went there with my parents, who were also writers, as a child and take my children there today.

Why they chose this property

I love this place. It's the perfect antidote to city life. The house looks out over a vast view of sun and sky. When the sun shines it's one of the most beautiful seascapes I have ever seen. When gales blow and the sea is rough it's dramatic. Time spent here is special - for adults and children alike.

What makes this property unique

Chy Barnett's position is truly exceptional. It sits at the top of an Atlantic bay, with no other houses around. At the same time it's not too remote - just a short walk from the local restaurant/pub.
