Lovely location great views really relaxing holiday..

Back of Beyond is a lovely place to stay.. It is in a beautiful setting. On arrival we found a lovely cream tea and few other suprises in the fridge which were most welcome after our long journey. We would definitely consider going to stay there again, If we win the £1000 draw we will definitely be going!! Only one negative the dishwasher was a bit temperamental but Mr Baker did say he was thinking they might have to change it but it didn't spoil our holiday we had a wonderful time and Gurnards Head was beautiful, steep in places when walking but worth the effort.

Lovely barn conversion.. The pictures do not do this place justice, it’s lovely, with a sea view from the garden. It’s completely kitted out. Everything you need with added extras like fresh flowers and scones with clotted cream and jam. It’s so cozy you feel completely relaxed and at home immediately. I really can’t praise this place enough. It is remote which means you need to hook up to the WiFi to boost your phone signal. I didn’t bother. It’s lovated in a great spot and everything is not that far away. We loved it and will return next time we visit Cornwall.

Absolutely stunning place and we didn't want for anything.. we were left lots of lovely treats by the owners who were on hand if needed. The views were spectacular and lots to do and places to go. I will definitely be back again highly recommended. Thank you

Lovely hosts and a very warm welcome for us and our 2 large furry friends.. The hosts have gone out of their way to make the property a home from home from the lovely tasty welcome goodies for the humans to the generous supply of available dog towels. The dogs found their welcome treats very quickly in the little dog box. Beautiful location with ample parking and a good sized garden. Great access to the south coastal path right on the doorstep perfect for the dog walks. Lovely dog friendly pub 2 minutes walk up the road.

Mr Stacey

The place and people were amazing! The owners had made us fresh scones with cream and jam as well as having all the basics for arriving like milk tea etc!!! The holiday cottage was spot on with a great wood burner which made it very cosy! Definitely going to visit again in the future...

Mr Ling

Stunning sea view, beautiful cottage, nice welcome from the owners when we arrived.. Wine, cakes, home made jam and flowers as an extra additional touch. Nice location to explore what Cornwall has to offer. Definitely coming back.

Sarah is a fantastic host, gave us a very warm welcome, provided some lovely touches, like fresh flowers and also included a cream tea (best scones we have ever tasted! ) The accommodation was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and homely. The views are spectacular and is a wonderful place for walkers and hikers. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could possibly need for a self catering holiday, Sarah has covered all eventualities. We would definitely return to the "Back of Beyond"

Back of Beyond was a wonderful place to stay.. We really appreciated how clean the property was on our arrival. It was great to have the goodies (scones, jam, cream plus Cornish cider etc) as a welcome. We also appreciated all the extras that had been included (soap, loo roll) and the quality of the bedding towels and crockery was very good indeed. We appreciated having the owners on hand if we needed any advice etc but also valued the privacy they gave us. Altogether a great place to stay!

Extremely comfortable accommodation.. Owners left flowers, wine and other treats like cream teas for us which were much appreciated. The barn conversion was very cosy, curtesy of the Aga in the kitchen and nicely furnished. In an excellent location for visiting The Tate, the Minac theatre, Sennen Cove, some National trust gardens and other interesting places to take in. The dogs adored the large garden. Would definitely consider booking again.
