WHAT GUESTS ARE SAYING...

“Tinner’s Barn had everything we needed, including detailed instructions on how to find the place, parking, recommend walks and trips out with directions, adequate advice on how to use heating/oven/shower etc., books and DVDs if it rains, a little garden area, and nice furnishings. The place has a lovely rustic look which was perfect for our romantic little holiday. They were flexible enough to let us stay just for three nights, and were helpful and communicative before and during our stay. It takes less than 5 minutes to walk to the pubs and shops, and St Just is ideally located for exploring all corners of Penwith.”
