Merlin Farm Eco Cottage receives glowing review from Coast Magazine !


Merlin Farm Eco Cottage receives glowing review from Coast Magazine !

At the beginning of September we were delighted to host Alex Reece from Coast Magazine and her family in one of our Eco Cottages....

"These three glass-fronted holiday cottages, converted from disused barns, are a master class in eco luxe. Interiors are high-spec: walk-in showers, roll-top baths, wood-burning stoves and fluffy (bamboo) bathrobes. Equally impressive are the green credentials, including solar-powered hot water and under-floor heating from a ground-source pump. Young families will love the ‘Constantine’ cottage, with its outdoor play area and well-thought-out kit (a stroller, steriliser, toys and more) plus the opportunity to feed the farm animals. And it’s just a ten-minute walk through lush, Cornish countryside to the beach."
