An Skiber, a Cornish weekend...


Littlegreenshed - UK Lifestyle Blog (holidays in Cornwall)








Last weekend we slipped away after school and headed southwards once more to the Cornish coast.  Our home for the weekend was this beautiful little barn 'An Skiber'.

As a family we were looking for a place to relax, recharge and feel surrounded by the countryside, to shake the big city off of our shoulders.  An Skiber, was a perfect spot for just that.  Set in stunning extensive gardens, the boys were able to run freely, finding hiding spots amongst the large Gunnera's and plopping stones in the stream.  Dan and I spent a quiet moment drinking our morning coffee on one of the many hidden terraces (there are 5 to choose from), each secluded, hidden away from the world with just the sound of wind in the trees.

Inside the Barn, each room has been decorated to the highest standard. The kitchen is awesome, a real foodies delight. A huge fridge, every gadget you can think of, coffee making machine, and of course the AGA.  

We spent our days, playing in the garden, visiting the nearby Helford River, Kynance Cove and the surrounding area of the Lizard.  An Skiber is the perfect spot for exploring this wonderful part of Cornwall.

I love the Lizard Peninsular it's rich countryside, wild beaches and great pubs and cafes, makes it the perfect place to escape for a week or two.

For more information on An Skiber please have a look at their website.

We were kindly gifted our weekend in An Skiber, thank you!
