Hendra Barn
This beautifully proportioned home faces due south over the grounds and lakes to open countryside. The handsome exposed stone and granite facades are complimented with brick detailing and a magnificent ‘wrap-around’ living room that opens onto the broad slate paved sun terrace. Accommodation includes a farmhouse style kitchen with granite worksurfaces, breakfast island and high beamed ceiling plus utility. Measuring nearly 34’ x 32’, the fabulous living area enjoys wonderful vistas through the full height glazed elevations with a wood burning stove and underfloor heating. Completing the ground floor is a galleried entrance hall, wet room, double bedroom and cloakroom. The first floor comprises a principal bedroom with en suite and balcony, family bathroom and three further bedrooms.

Little Hendra
Attached to Hendra Barn and with an interconnecting door (currently closed), Little Hendra is a charming character cottage with its own area of slate sun terrace. Approached to a sun room and into a dual aspect open plan kitchen/living room with Shaker style units and door out to a rear courtyard. To the first floor are two bedrooms and the bathroom.

The Old Coach House
Facing south onto its lawned garden, this pretty single storey detached converted barn features stone, granite and brick elevations with a full width paved sun terrace. Approached from a rear courtyard into a spacious kitchen/breakfast room with Shaker style units. Onward from here is the delightful sitting room/dining room with wood burning stove and direct access to the garden. The accommodation is completed with three bedrooms (one en suite) and a family bathroom.


Ancillary building and wedding/celebration venue
Set to the west of the three properties these two substantial buildings have been thoughtfully constructed to blend with the inherent character of the barns.

Garage/Workshop A single storey building with stone and granite elevations fronting onto an extensive brick paved drive that is shared with the three barn conversions. The main workshop area has windows, pedestrian door and garage door onto the

drive whilst the adjoining garage has a pedestrian door to the side and garage door to the front. To the rear is a room housing the private water supply plant.

Wedding/Celebration Venue An impressive building that fronts onto the brick paved driveway whilst also having its own independent drive access to a car parking area. Purpose built for weddings and celebrations this superb building has a vaulted oak and glass ceiling in the main light-filled function room which measures around 30’ x 25’ with broad bi-fold doors opening onto the sun terrace and grounds. Opening off here is a bar area and beyond this a central hall and kitchen. There is a wc off the function room and an additional shower room and wc that benefit from external access.

The Business
The current owners have lovingly created this rural retreat and a business that combines both holiday letting and celebrations. Promoted through their own website together with Vrbo and Airbnb, there are onward bookings that alongside accounts can be made available to interested parties following viewing.

Hendra Barns is approached off the shared driveway through a gated, granite posted entrance to a huge brick paved driveway that affords plentiful parking. There is a separate car park with independent access for the celebration venue. The fabulous grounds extend in total to around 4.2 acres with landscaped swathes of grass overlooked by the wrap-around slate paved sun terrace outside of Hendra Barn. A beautiful hand crafted circular wooden arbour overlooks the lakes and is capable of seating a small wedding party. The two lakes are an undoubted centre piece with lighting, mature planting and a range of coarse fish. The Old Coach House has its own lawned garden with gates opening into the main grounds.

Approached via a half mile shared driveway, Hendra Barns stands amidst rolling open countryside between the cathedral city of Truro and the rugged north coast. There are local amenities in the village of Trispen and access to the A30 both within 2 miles, and a number of fine surfing beaches including Perranporth, Crantock and Holywell Bay within 9 miles. It’s incredible just how well connected and easily accessible this property is.

The altogether softer south coast is around 15 miles whilst Falmouth offers access to some of the finest day sailing waters in the country and a plethora of maritime facilities.

The Cathedral City of Truro is 7 miles away, providing the main business links for Cornwall and offers an excellent range of shopping, business facilities plus state and independent schooling. It is on the mainline to London Paddington which takes approx. 4 ½ hours. Cornwall Airport Newquay, 14 miles away, offers international and national flights, including to London Gatwick, taking just under an hour.
