Otter Barn Lakes Reviews

Susanne

The cottages are very clean, and well looked after. The owners leave you to have your own space, but are quick to respond if there is any issue. Lovely views from the windows and also from the hot tub. Beds are comfy, bedrooms cosy. Shopping facilities close by. Enjoyed our stay

Lindy

Fantastic view over the lakes, The hot tub was regulary checked very reassuring, they even provided robes. There was tea, coffee, milk, biscuits and cleaning products for us when we arrived. It was so calm and quiet really lovely for a relaxed holiday. The owners were very pleasant and helpful. The dog enjoyed her walks around the lakes.

Maria

We found that the accommodation was equipped with basically anything we might possibly need for our 2 week stay & the setting was more idyllic than the photos on the website showed.

Lovely cottage, peaceful location with great views of the countryside. Cream tea for us and treats for our dog on arrival made us all feel very welcome.

Stacey

Was absolutely amazing place. Myself and the children loved it and will definitely be back. Thank you for the welcoming touch of the scones and milk,

Cary

Apart from the little nit picky bits which I never complained about. Place was lovely, pretty expensive for what it is, especially out of season but still really nice break away an a good last minute get away. An the surroundings were stunning!!!

Susan

A great place to stay. Lovely outlook. The beds are very comfortable and the lounge/ dining kitchen it well set up. The scones, milk etc on arrival is a great welcoming gift. The hosts are delightful and keep the place clean and tidy. We love the hot tub too.

Alice

We had a wonderful holiday at Otter Barn. Really close to Launceston and many shops, including the garden centre. Not far from the north coast and the Eden project. Darren has been so helpful and always present if needed. The paddock for the dog has been really appreciated. We would return for sure.

Debbie

Lovely peaceful setting in a good location . Scones, jam and cream on arrival and a Dog bed, towel and treats were nice touches ! We enjoyed using the hot tub each day to come back to after a day out exploring. Would recommend.

Lisa

Stayed in otter barn for a week and it was just perfect. If your looking for somewhere with things to do in walking distance this isn't the place. It's location for us was perfect and most places we wanted to visit was only a hour drive away . Totally loved this place and will 100 percent definitely will go back. I could write page's about how stun ning/peaceful this place is. Would recommend to anyone that doesn't want things in walking distance

Kate

Beautiful barn accommodation in a quiet location where the roads are virtually empty compared to the busy seaside resorts of Cornwall. Only 30 minutes by car to Bude and the beaches, where we did Coasteering, paddleboarding and swam in the (very clean) sea. Our furthest excursion was to the Lost Gardens, an hour away and well worth the drive. Lovel y walking at Lydford Gorge National Trust to see the fantastic waterfall. Staying here was far better value than a coastal cottage. We'll be back.

Rachel

Had a wonderful relaxing week at Otter Barn. All amenities provided and particularly liked the added touch of the welcome cream teas and fudge. Darren was absolutely brilliant and couldn't have been more helpful and lovely. Stunning views across the lakes (especially at sunset). Proximity to the A30 meant it's an ideal location for days out in Corn wall & Devon. Nearby Homeleigh garden centre great for all day breakfast & lunch plus great little farm shop. Would highly recommend staying here!

Shannon-Elise

Just got home from a 5 night stay for my husbands 30th birthday. Can not complain about anything! Everything was perfect. From the little detail of scones & milk to the views. The owners are lovely and really do go the extra mile to make you feel as comfortable as possible. Would 100% recommend this place and hope to return.

Rebecca

One of the nicest places we have stayed. Hot Tub was very popular with teenage children and supplying robes was a very welcome and thoughtful touch. Beautiful scenery and spacious and warm accommodation. Hosts were very welcoming

Abdul

A roomy and comfortable barn conversion. Kitchen was suitable equipped and we liked the scones, jam, cream and milk to greet us on our arrival. Ample areas to walk the dogs, though were a bit muddy as had been wet for some time. On the point of dogs, we were supplied with two dog beds, towels, bowls and treats. The hot tub was fine though could hav e been a bit warmer. Also, barns with hot tubs had robes supplied. Was able to make good use of the Pod Point EV charging stations. An enjoyable stay.
