This is certainly the best B&B we have stayed at. The room was spotless, very well furnished and the bed was ever so comfortable. The welcome from Carolyn and her dogs really made our stay perfect. Carolyn was always attentive and able to help us with any questions we had on the local area. More

Do yourself two favors: (1) Take a bit of a trek off the beaten path and explore Cornwall, and (2) stay at Downs Barn Farm. Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer. We are getting to be fairly veteran travellers and our experience at Downs Farm ranks among the best. Carolyn is a warm, lovely hostess and we... More
