Mill House, Boskensoe Barns Reviews

Wonderful stay at the Mill House. Very well equipped and comfortable. Thank you
An ideal venue and location for our family reunion. Mill Cottage is simply perfect with everything provided that you could possibly need, from the welcome pack of local essentials to the hot tub and BBQ. The owners were very kind and helpful when needed. The Red Lion is only 10 minutes walk and serve good beerfood. The coast path is only 2025 mins walk away. Only one negative about Mill Cottage, you never want to leave. Highly enjoyed and recommended by us all. Many thanks.
Lauren
This is our third stay at the mill house since 2021 and the high standards of cleanliness and maintenance remain each time. We love coming here knowing that everything is just perfect and the lovely owners are always on hand. Its a perfect base for exploring and we know we will definitely be planning our return once again. Thank you for another wonderful week
We had the best time, house was better than expected. Very cosy home to come back today after a day at the beach or on a nature trail I just wish there was more items in the kids area outside like a swing
The house was perfect for our family of 7 adults and a baby. We had everything we needed and more.
Phillip
The property itself is of a very high standard. The fixtures and fittings are top quality. It felt like going into a show house. In fact it is prepared to such a high standard, that it is difficult to believe that anyone else had stayed there. Bridget, the owner was very helpful and always available if needed. Over the years we have stayed in a number of properties. None have been as food as this.
Michele
Superb accommodation. Great attention to detail. Extremely comfortable, space for a large familygroup, yet cosy and inviting. Great location combining peace and tranquility with ready access to Falmouth and surrounding countryside. Would thoroughly recommend.
Thanks again for a great cottage and superb service. Everything was 100 top drawer and it was very easy for us to have a great time. We are already discussing next year!
Mill House is perfect I every way! Beautifully presented rooms, spacious and with everything you may need for your holiday. Beds are very comfortable and the hot tub great at end of a day of walking it now has a gazebo over it which was great on the kne night it rained! Owners could not do enough, texting during week to see if there was anything we needed. We were able to see the other properties on the site too, all to same excellent standard. Would highly recommend Boskensoe Barns!
We liked the attention to detail and the quality of the contents
Mathew
The pictures did not do the property justice. The level of detail and facilities were exactly what we wanted and to a very high spec. We would definitely return and recommend the property to anyone.
This was perfect for a three generations family holiday. The accommodation is spacious, very comfortable and wellequipped. The hot tub and gas bbq were a welcomed extra. The small, enclosed garden area was great with young children. The owner is very approachable and helpful. All in all, we can thoroughly recommend. Thank you to our hosts!
Stanley
Over many years of renting holiday properties this is the best we have ever had. Everything was of a high standard. Our weather was very poor all week and the holiday was saved by the quality of this property. The same can also be said of the Mill House, which we also rented.
We loved The Barn. Its was the best equipped holiday home we have ever rented, and by far the most luxurious and comfortable. The design decor and furnishings had been well thought out and we had a great stay marred only by the smoke alarms going off for the last 2 nights, which disturbed us all. Especially as the last night they went off twice. Fault on the system. I emailed Bridget at Boskensoe barns twice but have had no feedback. I hope this has been picked up for the next occupants.
Andrew
Another visit and we weren't disappointed. Really clean, comfortable and with all the amenities.
Mill house is a beautifully converted barn, finished to the highest standard. The welcome pack was full of delicious local produce. Lots to do within a short drive. Will definitely be returning.
Stephanie
This is by far the best self catering accommodation we have ever stayed in in the UK and will definitely be booking again. We were so impressed by the comfort of the beds that we came home and ordered the same mattress, pillows and duvet that we had during our stay.
The Barn was beautiful, very spacious and finished to such a high standard. We loved the welcome pack with local goodies and the log burner was brilliant. Bridgit was so welcoming and helpful, and we are already thinking about a return trip.
A fab place with great facilities Everything was good and now investigating the log burner for our home

Amazing property fitted out to the highest standards house was full of lots of little luxurys that made the stay so much more enjoyable Great location near lovely little village great pubs and beaches close by would definitely recommend
This was our second stay at the property & we wouldnt hesitate to recommend it. A Beautiful old barn, renovated to an extremely high standard with quality fixtures & fittings. Comfy beds, large modern bathrooms, spotlessly clean overall. Lovely private garden space, excellent well looked after hot tub, great for star gazing ! Thankyou for the generous welcome pack, we loved the Cornish produce and your local village deli store. The use of the electric charge point was also a massive plus. The only minus is the dog owners in other cottages that still insist on letting their dogs 'roam' on the shared area, despite there now being a dedicated dog exercise area. It meant we couldn't let our young family use that same common area.
Anthony
Mill House, in Boskensoe Barns, is a superb property in an ideal location for exploring the Helford Area and beyond both N & S coasts. It is well equipped, spotlessly clean and the hot tub is a great addition. We met the owners who are lovely people and helped us to understand how the oven worked!!! Would not hesitate to recommend, or return should we be in that area again. A truly 5 star property.
Beautiful barn, exceptionally well equipped and the beds were really comfortable!
Lauren
This was our second visit to the Mill House and whilst its an incredibly long journey for us, we just cannot find anywhere else that compares. The accommodation has maintained the high standards which we found last year it is incredibly clean, comfortable and welcoming. Bridget is always at hand if anything is needed and will go out of her way to make sure your stay is a great one. Weve found such a variety of places to visit, making the village a great location. The children love the hot tub but just have one request for mini dressing gowns!!

Maggie
It is a beautiful holiday home, the owners have thought of everything. Excellent facilities for all the family to enjoy. Great location as well lots of beaches nearby.
Patrick
Unfortunately we didnt get to meet our lovely hosts due to covid isolation but all communication was excellent and helpful. We could not speak highly enough about the property and the whole experience. It is rare for us to genuinely want to return to a holiday home as we like to vary our holidays but the whole family missed the house when we left. Mill House had everything and the attention to details was fantastic. We felt very privileged to have spent a week there. The area surrounding the property was very beautiful and peaceful, with lots to do for our teenage girls.
Simply stunning.
Andrew
A fantastic place. Clean, tidy, loads of top quality furnishings. We were so pleased with our stay and felt really well looked after. We will be back soon!
Elizabeth
Absolutely incredible. Luxurious, comfortable, everything you could need for a relaxing break. Top marks all round.
Jacqui
Beautiful property with everything you needed. Was pure luxury. There is nothing that the owners hadnt thought of to provide. Was such a lovely touch to have milk , butter, tea, coffee , biscuits , juice , flowers! Would definitely go again.
ie-ann
A group of us friends stayed at Mill House last week and it was such a fantastic holiday! The accommodation exceeded our expectations! It was clean, luxurious, every need was catered for. We didn't have to use some of the things we brought because it was already available. And the hot tub was just the icing on the cake. The owners also kept in touch which was so helpful. We would certainly return and definitely recommend staying here. A great way to spend a long weekend in Cornwall. You won't be disappointed....
Rachel
We had an amazing weekend away. Mill House was beautiful decorated and clean. My only issue was that the hot tub was not hot enough on our first night but it didnt spoil our time away.
Suzanne
Great accommodation. Loved the hot tub Everything we needed was provided thankyou
As four former female schoolfriends now of a certain age we stayed in Mill House at the beginning of December for a pretend Christmas. The accommodation exceeded our expectations. The house is well equipped and set to a high standard. Even during Covid times there wasn't anything more we needed than was provided. The open plan layout upstairs meant that even if one of us was cooking, we didn't feel on our own and could easily join in with the others. We only met the owner, Bridget, once due to Covid restrictions, but felt that if we had any issues we could easily have spoken to her she lives opposite Mill House and it would have been dealt with. Bridget even, with our permission, entered the property to put up a wonderful Christmas tree whilst we were out one day which made the week even more special. Mill House is in a gated complex with three other properties and is well situated, being just outside Falmouth, for easy access to most of the south west end of Cornwall for getting out and about. The village has a pub serving homely food, an excellent general shop and post office, a coffee house and a lovely gift shop. All within easy walking distance. There is adequate car parking on the complex and is away from outside the properties to give extra privacy to guests. The car parking area has an electric vehicle charging point which was a huge relief to one of our party. The weather was slightly against us for our week, but we did manage one early evening to make use of the hot tub to watch the sun go down! I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Mill House and as such we have booked to go back again in December this year!
Elizabeth
This is an absolutely fabulous property. It was perfect for myself and husband to have a birthday week with my children and their partners. It was very comfortable and had loads of crockery and cutlery to use in the dishwasher definitely a 5 star property. The location was also perfect. We used the cafe and the Oystercatcher shop in the village, went down to Trebah Gardens and over to St Mawes. It was all in all a fantastic holiday in an amazing property. I would fully recommend it.
This property has a real wow factor and you feel like your living in a little bit of luxury for a week. Its a high spec, well looked after, spotlessly clean barn conversion, which our whole family loved especially the private outside space & hot tub. Full of little extras such as toiletries, robes & a generous welcome pack that make all the difference. Plus helpful & attentive owners. Its in a fabulous location, with easy access & parking. Weve already booked for next year !
We took both Mill House and the Long House to give space for 3 generations of family to eat and socialise together while allowing us grandparents uninterrupted sleep and leisurely late breakfasts in the smaller house it was a perfect arrangement. Everyone was wowed by the accommodation which has been designed and equipped to a very high standard. The private garden of the Mill House was ideal for 2 small toddlers. The hot tub proved very popular with all. Bridget was a most kind and sympathetic host, mainly by email due to Covid but also, with Mark, in person on our final day when our car battery suddenly died! A wonderful location for a special holiday.
Cannot fault this place at all. Very well maintained and clean property, with nice little extra touches. Highly recommend to anyone staying in the area.
Beautiful house only a 10 minute drive from Falmouth. The house was beautiful and clean, the beds extremely comfy. All the little house comforts you would need for a lovely stay are in this house. Bridget and Mark very accommodating. Wonderful stay. Thank you.
