"It has been our 10th or 11th visit to this dream of a house."

For us it is absolutely home from home, with generous size rooms, comfortable furniture and unsurpassable views. Trevan is beautifully quiet, equipped with pretty much everything you need. ( I do take my coffee machine with me). It feels like staying in a ‘home’, not a soulless holiday let. As long as your idea of a perfect holiday by the sea does not involve white panelling and seaside bunting I cannot recommend Trevan highly enough. It’s heaven. A very special place.

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay once again and would love to welcome you back anytime in the future. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

"Unfortunately the cleaners left a towel hanging up in one of the twin bedrooms from the previous occupants, not all cooking utensils were clean, there were stains behind the downstairs toilet, floors also had stains on, other than that we had a lovely stay and enjoyed the house very much."

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused by these issues. Your comments have been passed on to the team here at John Bray Cornish Holidays. We are glad that you still managed to enjoy your visit despite these issues and would love to welcome you back to North Cornwall in the future. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner.

"We loved this property, fantastic location, brilliant view, the house is lovely - clean, tidy, comfortable - really a wonderful place and we have booked to come back next year."

Lundy Bay is beautiful and so close and it almost feels like a private beach with the access from the house. However, people should be aware that it states there is Wifi but there is basically zero wifi. We couldn't get any all week and 5G was intermittent so even messages often didn't get through. People who would want to work/ enjoy the digital tv channels should be aware. And hopefully this can be improved for next year given that the next door property has perfect wifi speed (we spoke to the owner). Wifi aside, a wonderful stay in the most beautiful of settings.

"A return to Trevan for the third/fourth time was hugely enjoyed by all."

This was my first visit since recent improvements which made things even better! When it was necessary to seek assistance with a 'locked door' (which wasn't! ) and with a plumbing problem everything was very quickly resolved which was much appreciated. Facilities ,Comfort, The view, (and the weather) all ensured 5 people left Trevan having had a super stay. Many Thanks.

"I stayed at Trevan 6 years ago before John Bray took over."

It was amazing then. My family and I arrived this time to find all sorts of fantastic upgrades. Spotlessly decorated, amazing showers and hot water, a super new electric cooker. The new outdoor seating is brilliant and the floor throughout downstairs is way more practical.My elderly parents were very comfortable in the downstairs en suite and the new hall / tv room is genius. Beds very comfy and utility / boot area brilliant after walks. Kitchen is equipped as a home rather than a holiday house with decent knives and pans and lots of recipe books to browse. Lovely for the dog, so all round fab. Arrangements for rubbish could be clearer but that is all. 100% perfect holiday house. Thank you owners.

Thank you so much for your lovely comments. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back in the very near future. John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf oof the owner. Property Owner

"Trevan is the MOST comfortable, has the MOST MAGNIFICENT views and is a place of peace and heaven."

I am slightly reluctant to recommend so highly, because I might not be able to book my week next year if you ALL go there. Perfect place for a N Coast stay.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are so pleased to hear that you found the property comfortable and enjoyed the lovely views. We look forward to welcoming you back next year - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

"Trevan is a wonderfully spacious and comfortable house with spectacular panoramic views to Lundy Bay and the coast and sea beyond."

It is beautifully furnished, with interesting decorative features, quilts, paintings and other art work and has plenty of storage, cooking facilities and a wide parking area for several cars, if necessary. There is lovely local walking along the nearby cliffs in both directions and there are very many other places of interest within a short drive away. Polzeath, just down the road, is good for food, and other, shopping. We would be keen to return before too long and revisit all the places we have formed a close attachment to over many years of visiting North Cornwall. Trevan, however, was the best property of all in our experience of holidaying in this area.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are so pleased that you found the property comfortable and enjoyed the lovely views, and are very happy that the property suited your needs so well.

"Trevan House (Lundy) is a unique and wonderful place which I and my family find to be absolutely perfect for our holiday."

We found the staff at the John Bray office in Rock really helpful with a couple of minor queries. We are booked in for next year and already looking forward to it. Just one request, we will be in fully electric cars next year, is there any chance of putting in an EV Charger at Trevan House?

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay at Trevan House and are looking to welcome you back to Cornwall next year. The decision to install an EV charger is for the owner to consider but we are not currently aware of any plans to do this. John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

"This is a beautiful house with the most magnificent location."

Easy access to the coastal path was wonderful. We loved it. The rooms are all comfortable, and a problem with the downstairs shower was solved very quickly. This house is in quite a remote spot, which means we ate in most of the time. The kitchen is really well equipped except for two items that are fairly essential : oven gloves (we couldn’t find any!) and a draining rack for the sink. Thank you for a lovely holiday.

"Trevan is a really great house in a beautiful setting."

The views from the living room and three of the four bedrooms are spectacular. The house itself is really comfortable. It took us a while to work out that we couldn’t access Lundy Bay directly from the garden, so some more information about where the coastal paths started would have been helpful. Oh, and a sharp knife to cut up the lemons for our nightly G&T would have been useful! But those are minor niggles - everything else was great.

"We adore staying at Trevan."

This is an individual style house, with incredible views. The house is beautifully and individually decorated. It feels like a proper home. It is quiet, beautifully clean, spacious and we are repeat visitors of 10 years now. It is safe and wonderful. It is our ‘haven of calm and beauty’ once a year.

The property

Trevan House is a much-loved, self-catering home with outstanding, panoramic sea views over Lundy Bay and beyond.

Located beside the footpath down to Lundy Bay, Trevan House is a stone’s throw from a peaceful, tidal beach, which makes for an ideal sunset walk after supper.

Sleeping eight guests, this holiday home is perfect for families or large groups, that welcomes your dog as well, for a memorable, Cornish getaway.

The ground floor, social spaces have a homely feel with a well-equipped kitchen inspiring house chefs to cook up a hearty meal after a day exploring the North Cornwall coast.

Relax in the dining area next to the kitchen, the perfect conversation hub benefiting from stunning views of the unspoilt coastline.

Trevan House has four bedrooms set over two floors, most of them cleverly angled to take advantage of the ocean views.

Access the wonderful garden from the sitting room or sink into a plush chair and watch the everchanging seascape from the comfort of your holiday home.

The large first-floor balcony makes a perfect spot for some alfresco dining while the garden lends itself to adventures and fun outdoor games.

Trevan House is ideally located away from the hustle and bustle between Polzeath and Port Quin, with plenty of off-road parking.

For keen walkers and those who love exploring the spectacular coastline and sea views from the garden at Trevan House you can walk through the small paddock which sometimes the owner keeps her sheep in and go through the wooden gate at the far end, this leads onto the National Trust headland and onto the SW coastal path ( please make sure you shut the gates to keep the sheep safely in their paddock) You can take a relaxing walk down to Lundy Bay, a sheltered cove with a sandy beach at low tide, ideal for watching the wildlife on the way.

For those who like a challenge, experience the dramatic coastal paths whilst soaking up the fresh sea air and views.

Polzeath is only a car journey away and a favourite spot for surfers of any ability, with beachside restaurants, shops, galleries, and cafés on offer.

Sunsets here are well worth lingering on the beach for, perhaps with a cold beer or barbecue.

Escape to the coast with a stay at Trevan House.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
