Where do we start?! We absolutely LOVED The Tractor Shed!
It was very easy to find, with plenty of parking in the very well laid out carpark. ... read more />
The Tractor Shed is beautifully furnished and finished to a very high standard.
We were able to prepare all our meals in the well equiped kitchen.
The generously sized bedroom and living area both have french doors leading out to a private space overlooking the Orchard. There is also a beautiful bathroom with a walk in shower.
Each room has been so well thought out, we felt comfortable, relaxed, and at home immediately.
Richard was super friendly and flexible, suggesting an early check-in and a relaxed check-out on our paticular stay dates in January.
We didn't realised when we booked but Richard has 3 cottages on site and immediately we thought how perfect in would be for a holiday for an extended family. Together on the same farm but with everyone having their own place! Just an idea 😉
Thank you for such a perfect stay!

A really fab place to stay, beautifully quiet, great views (even though the rain!). Warm and comfortable, both the main room and the bedroom, and the bed was really comfy.... read more Sadly, we didn’t get to walk in the fields and grounds around the property cos of the weather (just before xmas). Richard and Hellen were so helpful and dealt with the really small problems we had so quickly. Mabe Burnthouse is brilliantly located for exploring Falmouth and Cornwall generally. We would definitely book with Richard and Hellen again, they were so welcoming to their lovely home.

The Tractor Shed was an absolute delight to stay at. It was clean, and felt fresh. Living space was just right for 2 adults and has a gorgeous kitchen to... read more cook in. It’s fully equipped. The sofas were extremely comfy for a sofa day where we read books and I cross stitched my heart out. The bed was super comfortable and Richard was kind enough to ensure the heated blanket was put on the bed! The heating was excellent in the tractor shed, we never went cold. The fridge was spacious but we realised that we had forgotten to buy butter after we went shopping. Fear not, Richard came to the rescue with some butter! It was surrounded by lovely acres of field and was about 10 minutes to Falmouth. Transport was mostly used with driving or taxis. Thank you for having us, it felt like home from home!

The communication from Richard has been outstanding right from booking and since getting home.
We were also kindly offered later check out which we didn't need, but nice to have had the extra wiggle room.
Sorry Premier Inn, you've lost a customer, we would not hesitate in returning to The Tractor Shed for our next Cornish getaway.
Thank you Richard & Helen, you've been superb hosts !

We had a great stay at The Tractor Shed nestled in the beautiful Cornish countryside. The property is located on a peaceful farm with dedicated parking, offering a lovely setting... read more and a true sense of escape. The amenities are top-notch – from the cozy, well-appointed interiors to the fully equipped kitchen and our own outdoor space, everything is designed for comfort and relaxation. A perfect home away from home stay, and within very easy reach to the university campus at Penryn and Falmouth. A tranquil countryside experience with all the modern comforts, this was the perfect stay.

Richard was very helpful, the tractor shed was perfect for me working in the southwest for 3 days, and had everything you would need.
would recommend anyone staying here.

Easy to... read more get onto the main roads to explore Cornwall and our favourite day was the one day road trip recommended by the hosts around The Lizard it was unforgettable!
We did find the bedroom got quite hot at night, it must be well insulated. The hosts do ask guests to hoover round at the end of the stay.
One of our favourite parts of the airbnb was when the hosts offered to get everything together for a fire pit for us which was amazing and so kind, we really enjoyed the fire pit under the stars! We loved our stay and would recommend it thanks so much!

Had a lovely time at The Tractor Shed. Great parking, location, easy to access, and the place is very nicely appointed. Only slight negatives were: we thought they'd be easier... read more access to the field/grounds in the pics, and the shower wasn't great (if I lived there I'd be updating it). But these are relatively minor quibbles. Can confidently recommend a holiday here.

They saved the day for us, or we were driving 6 hours back home, so we were extremely grateful to them. The accommodation is all newly refurbished, lovely quiet place in the countryside, but only 5 minutes from nearest supermarket where we popped in for breakfast sometimes and Falmouth and St Mawes only a few miles away, we drove all over to be honest. Richard was very helpful, came and showed us how to use the log burner late one evening when we got back, nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely recommend Cornish vistas 👍

We found the owners, Richard and Helen, very friendly and helpful, and as they live onsite were available should there be any issues. The welcome pack with some essentials to get us going was a nice touch. The accommodation was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. I particularly like the upside down arrangement as it gave us some elevated views of the surrounding fields and gave me the opportunity to do some bird watching, especially great to see some buzzards. We would certainly recommend a stay here and are hoping to come back in the near future to explore some of the places we missed on this trip.
