SKYBER, ST BURYAN


NEW FOR 2025.

A breath-taking detached barn conversion where modern luxury and rustic charm intertwine to create an absolutely stunning retreat. Painstakingly refurbished with comfort and style in mind Skyber is set in magical countryside close to both coasts. For added luxury there is a separate sauna off the terrace with a wood fired hot tub beyond positioned to take in the glorious valley views.

Step inside, and you’re greeted by a haven of style and serenity. It's a thoughtfully designed space and at the heart of the home is the large open plan living space with bi fold doors out onto the private terrace. The handcrafted George Robinson kitchen is a delight for keen cooks and flows into a bright dining area. Whether it’s a leisurely breakfast or a laid back supper, every meal will feel special here. The cosy lounge invites you to sink into a large corner sofa by the warmth of the wood burner—perfect for unwinding after a day exploring the coast.

The barn sleeps six guests across three beautifully styled bedrooms, each dressed in soft linens and calming tones. The master suite boasts a private en-suite, while the two additional bedrooms share a spa-like bathroom featuring a deep, freestanding bath for blissful relaxation.

Outside, Skyber’s private paradise awaits. The sun-drenched terrace offers chic seating and an alfresco kitchen. There's a separate sauna room, while the wood-fired hot tub is positioned to take in the stunning valley views. From the garden a gate gives access (With steep paths and a pond NO children permitted unless supervised by a responsible adult) to meandering paths leading down through lush gardens to a peaceful lake, where birdsong and the sounds of nature create a tranquil escape.

Tucked away down a private lane in the heart of west Cornwall Skyber is a great base to explore the delights of the far west of Cornwall. It’s a short drive from Porthcurno and the awe-inspiring Minack Theatre. The golden sands and surfing at Sennen beach as well as the charming harbours of Mousehole and Newlyn are also all in close driving distance.

This idyllic retreat is perfectly placed for those seeking the magic of Cornwall’s coastline. Welcoming six lucky guests and their four-legged companions, Skyber is a place to unwind, reconnect, and soak up the beauty of wild Cornwall in absolute comfort.


LOCATION

Located via a private lane shared with just a few other properties Skyber is nestled deep in the countryside. Set on the very outskirts of the village of St Buryan where you're a short drive from the stunning beach of Porthcurno and the iconic Minack Theatre. A little further along the coast you come to Pedn Vounder, an extraordinary beach voted in the top 50 in the world by the Sunday Times. Located away from it all but only a short journey to some of the best the Far West of Cornwall has to offer, you’re only 10 minutes by car to the amazing Sennen and Gwenver beaches or 15 minutes to Newlyn harbour for some of the freshest seafood there is. The Logan Rock Inn at Treen is a five-minute drive, or a twenty-minute cliff walk for the more adventurous!


LIVING

Spend snug afternoons and cosy evenings in the living area, complete with a Smart TV for family film nights and a beautiful wood burner for those chillier evenings. Wooden beams and Tom Raffield ceiling lights offer a Scandi inspired ambience to this decadent retreat. Unwind and get lost in your book on the soft corner sofa or watch the sun set in comfort. Wherever you settle yourself, relax in comfort as fireside luxury has never been so homely!

WHAT GUESTS ARE SAYING...

“We had the place for the week and what an amazing experience, it had everything we needed, great location and stunning scenery, perfect for a relaxing stay, would highly recommend.”

Will – November 2025

“Skyber is by far the best place we have ever stayed in Cornwall. We visit family in the area often, and honestly this home blew us away. It was spotless, cosy and pure luxury. Every single detail has been carefully thought through and is the best quality. The spa is so peaceful and the gardens are magical. The photos (although incredible) don’t do it justice as the smell of the lavender in the gardens really makes this place come alive. The Cornish Way sent loads of fantastic local recommendations and the owner stopped by to say hi and spoke to us in the gardens when we went walking (loads of great walks). The kids absolutely loved the space too. There are loads of games and books to enjoy. We honestly can’t wait to come back here already. 10/10 - recommend the host and accommodation to anyone looking to visit Cornwall.”

Gabrielle – August 2025 

“This home was incredible!! Beautifully thought-out accommodation, with absolutely everything you could need. The home was so well equipped with beautiful serve ware, utensils and crockery. All very high end and good quality. Even the dog was catered for with bowls, a towels and treats. The decor and design of the home was very stylish, with no expense spared. Very comfortable beds, pillows and duvets. Spacious bathrooms and a separate utility area with WC. The spa area was such a treat. It’s located at the end of the garden, with a spacious sauna, double shower and WC in the stone building. Outside of this you have the hot tub and a hot outdoor shower. All overlooking the stunning countryside. You also have robes and slippers. The privacy and peacefulness in the country was a blessing. Even though you’re in the country, you’re only a 10-15 min drive from great places to eat, beaches and local farm shop and great walks from your doorstep. The Cornish Way are excellent too. Highly recommended”

Josie – July 2025 

"Skyber is a beautiful place. Every aspect of the property has been designed to the highest standard - from the stunning gardens to the art work and lights from local Cornish creatives. The sauna and hot tub were such a treat after long walks. The owners rightly feel very proud of their property. The property is located perfectly to explore West Cornwall . We also made use of The Cornish Box delivery service, which was great, as we arrived late on Friday night. The Cornish Way were also very communicative and helpful. We wouldn’t hesitate to return to Skyber or to use The Cornish Way again".

Hannah S - May 2025

“Dear Jo, what a fabulous, relaxing time we have had in your beautifully restored barn. You have created such a special place and we were thrilled to be your first guests. As interior designers ourselves we appreciate the love and attention to detail that has been lavished on Skyber and will highly recommend it to others. (Secretly we would like to keep it to ourselves so we can come back again!)”
