Bolotho Barns

Bolotho Barns - Dog Friendly Self Catering Holidays in Truro, Cornwall

Hidden down a shaded woodland lane just outside Feock in the Truro area, Bolotho Barns comprises two meticulously restored stone barn cottages nestled in the heart of the Cornish countryside. Framed by ancient hedgerows and mature woodland, the property offers seclusion and serenity. Skylarks and Bramblings present a boutique-style self-catering retreat for couples or small families seeking contemporary comfort and a connection with nature in a peaceful rural setting. A two-acre meadow and orchard surround the barns, inviting leisurely strolls before or after coastal adventures.

Accommodation
Each barn has been conceived with both luxury and practicality in mind. Vaulted ceilings and exposed beams soar above polished oak floors, while ambient designer lighting and bespoke décor create a soothing atmosphere. Interiors feature a king-size sleigh bed dressed in premium linens, a fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances and farmhouse cabinetry, and an elegant dining table. En-suite bathrooms offer a freestanding roll-top bath, walk-in shower and organic toiletries. On cooler evenings, the cosy woodburner provides welcome warmth.

Dog Friendly Option
Guests travelling with a dog should select Skylarks, the dedicated dog-friendly barn cottage designed to welcome canine companions with ease. Bramblings remains a pet-free option, ensuring a calm environment for those without four-legged guests. Both cottages share the same tranquil courtyard and orchard, yet each guest experience is tailored to individual preferences.

Outdoor Space
The two cottages flank a sunlit courtyard, each with its own private paved patio furnished for alfresco dining or quiet reflection. Step through the gate to discover an apple and cherry orchard producing seasonal fruit, and a two-acre meadow awash with wildflowers and buzzing wildlife. Ancient hedgerows frame the views, and guests may spot shy deer among the grasses. Outdoor seating, picnic blankets and barbecue facilities make it effortless to savour warm Cornish afternoons and evenings beneath the open sky.

Guest Services
With just two holiday cottages on the property, personalised service is assured. The welcoming owners live next door and provide a complimentary hamper of locally sourced treats on arrival, accompanied by an information pack detailing scenic walks, nearby country pubs and artisan markets. Secure bike storage caters to cyclists exploring regional routes, and families can request baby and toddler equipment in advance, ensuring every member of the party enjoys a comfortable stay.
