Friendly owners, relaxed valley woodland setting. Lovely walk to beach and pub (about 30 minutes). Perfect for a quiet long weekend, despite the cold sea mist.

If you wish to get away from it all, this is the place. Clean and tidy accommodation and the enclosed garden is great for the dog. Like the really friendly owners state.Take a torch because it is dark with no light pollution. Star gazing on the decking is amazing. Owners have fitted a new kitchen this season which is well equipped.
Ideal base for exploring north Cornwall and it's a pleasant walk to the beach. No dogs allowed on beach after Easter, but plenty fields for them to run about in. Have stayed here before and will be returning again.

We had a wonderful time at the old shippon. Waking up listening to the stream next to the garden was just heaven.
Charlie and Jane are lovely, so helpful. The cottage was very clean and well looked after. It was really nice having the log burner aswell, especially at this time of year, it made the evenings cosy.
And the walk to the beach was just perfect. The dogs loved running around the fields at mineshop and we spent hours throwing sticks for them in the river.
We ate out at the Coombe Barton which is the pub at the local beach and it was delicious. Service was with a smile aswell.
We visited Boscastle which is close by and the rocky valley near Tintagel, Absolutely beautiful.
Our holiday to Mineshop was just what we needed and we have already booked up to stay again later in the year.
Thank you Charlie, Jane and Mutley of course! See you in September!
