| Situated in a quiet hamlet on the Lelant Downs above St. Ives, these two 200 year old granite stone barns enjoy far reaching views to Mounts Bay and towards Newquay and offer an ideal base for exploring the Lands End and Lizard peninsulas, St Michaels Mount (N.T.) and the creeks and inlets of Falmouth & Helford. They are only 4 1/2 miles from St. Ives, 5 1/2 miles from Penzance and 3 1/2 miles from Hayle.
The narrow country lanes around Brunnion are still bordered by traditional Cornish stone hedges, rich in wild flowers in spring and early summer. For bird watchers The Saltings and Hayle Estuary offer interesting venues.
Extra activities to enjoy
There is a whole range of different activities to enjoy while at Brunnion Barns. Visitors can benefit from free temporary membership at the leisure centre in The Garrack Hotel, St.Ives, with its heated swimming poool, whirlpool spa, sauna and exercise equipment. (There is a small charge for using each facility - contact Reservations for details.) If you are interested in scuba diving, pottery or painting courses, fishing or horse riding and wish to pre-book, just let the owners know well in advance of your arrival and they will do their best to help.
Brunnion Barns (The Cottage) has been awarded a 4 Star grading by Visit Britain.
