We stayed for 1 night during a short tour of Cornwall. We really enjoyed our stay. Blair and Jill are very nice people and looked after us exceptionally well. The bedrooms and bathrooms are very large and tastefully appointed. Would recommend to anyone. We popped to St Maws for a drink and walk and had a very good meal at the New Inn in Veryan. The breakfast was of a very high standard and taken in the quiet, relaxing, characterful dining room. Would love to go back one day.

Hay Barton is a working farm owned by Blair and Jill Jebson who make you extremely welcome. Homemade cakes with afternoon tea and great breakfasts. Lovely rooms and a communal lounge (shared with one other couple) with books, maps, TV etc.

Jill has a list of nearby restaurants. We ate at 3 different pubs, 2 of which were excellent. All were within 15-20 mins drive.

Heligan ("Lost Gardens of ...) is about 15 minutes away and Eden Project 20-25 minutes. We much preferred Heligan. St Mawes (15 mins) is a very pretty place to wander around in the evening.

Warning: the country lanes can be narrow single track, as in most of Cornwall.

Hay Bartow is exceptional . Welcomed with tea and a freshly baked sponge cake sitting in front of a wood fire in the sitting room dedicated to the guests, I knew it was going to be good
The bedrooms are spacious and immaculate with lovely linen and Portugese bedcovers. Hot water bottles snuggle in your comfortable bed which has Carh Kidston eiderdowns.
Delicious bath oils and ungents are in the large bathroom and as I lay in piping hot water filled with lovely scents I was able to watch the birds from my large, long roll-top bath.
Jill's breakfasts are exceptional. The local food is so elegantly presented and the yellowes eggs come from the prettiest chickens. The butter is moulded and I actually wanted to use a butter knife. Home made marmalade and a choice of cereals (Nigela Lawson's crispy muesli is outstanding) and several varieties of toast make a filling breakfast which lasted me all day.
Jill and Blair Jobson live on a working farm but go out of their way to make one feel at home. Their attention to detail and thoughtfulness for their guests is heart warming. A bull calf was born during my stay! I was so spoiled that I did not want to leave. I shall certainly be back as the Farm is situated perfectly to explore that lovely part of Cornwall. But I would
go back anyway because I want to spend more time at Hay Barton!

My partner and I stayed at beautiful Hay Barton over Easter in 2007. Our room was large with a double made of twin beds zipped together, heaps of blankets and eiderdowns, wood floorboards, big sash window. The huge bathroom had a roll top bath (no shower curtain so you have to be careful showering - but the room's much prettier that way), luxury toiletries and useful extras like cotton wool, emery board, clothes brush etc. There's a big guest living room with lots of magazines, books and TV, wifi access. The Jobsons were charming and provided many different teas, coffee and home made cake every afternoon. Superior tea-making facilities in the room - they left us a flask of fresh milk every night. The decor was pristine and beautiful - lots of country touches, antiques, fresh flowers etc without being at all stuffy. We're a young urban couple and hugely enjoyed this gorgeous farmhouse. You must be willing to drive everywhere - pubs etc are a few miles away.
