Our stay with Richard was fantastic from start to finish, when booking with him and the welcoming message! Lovely clean stay at the tractor shed, very peaceful and private area... read more with parking right outside. The grounds are lovely and great for a little one to explore, I would highly recommend staying here to anyone and definitely stay with Richard again!

  Richard was very welcoming. The accommodation was spotless and had everything we needed for our short break. Penryn and Falmouth are very close by. It was perfect for us.

  The Tractor Shed has been designed as a compact but surprisingly spacious and comfortable place, well appointed inside with excellent parking and brilliant views. Richard is close by, has a... read more very supportive approach, and can deal immediately with any issues. The cooking facilities are excellent, and very sufficient for those who like to cook for themselves, not always the case in some Airbnb facilities, and with a private patio!

  My partner and I enjoyed an absolutely lovely couple of nights at the Tractor Shed. It was very easy to find. The host (Richard) is very responsive and helpful -... read more he welcomed me to the property and was never intrusive throughout our stay; he even recommended a great local chippy.
The property itself is pristinely clean, well equipped (yet without clutter), and practical whilst being charming at the same time. Richard had prepped the property with the heating just right before our arrival - there's even an electric blanket on the bed for those who feel the cold.
The surrounding grounds are lovely and peaceful and Falmouth is a few minutes drive away. What more could you want?
All I can say is that if you're thinking about staying - do it! We'll certainly be revisiting in the future.

  A lovely place to stay. Clean and comfortable with lovely views. Friendly hosts.

  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 well equipped and cosy hideaway 10 minutes from stunning coastal walks. And Richard and Helen were fantastic hosts. Thank you both for a lovely stay xx

  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.

  Great stay, lovely cottage with everything we needed. Would defo stay again in the future.

  Great place. Definitely recommend

  Amazing!! Couldn’t have asked for a better host. Thank you!

  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!

  We've just returned from a very relaxed, short break at The Tractor Shed.
The property is pristine and very well equipped, conveniently located to supermarkets, yet located just off a... read more quiet country road.
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.

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).
