  • "We absolutely love, love, love Trevenning Barn."

    3rd (but definitely NOT the last) time staying here. It is stunning inside and out. We were greeted on arrival by the owner, who is very pleasant and helpful. The bottle of fizz was very much appreciated. If you like peace and quiet, wildlife, stunning views and sunsets, this place has it all. Just fabulous!

    From the quality of beds and linen to everything you could need in kitchen.First class! Croquet lawn, garden furniture. Just perfect, easy distance to both North and South coasts. Would love to return

  • "We had a wonderful holiday at this very spacious barn."

    Accommodation is 5 star with high levels of cleanliness. Having the 2 dogs, the paddocks for exercising was fantastic. Location is good for both north and south coasts. Would definitely return and highly recommend. Nigel and Alison

  • "Lovely cottage in a peaceful rural setting."

    close to great dog friendly beaches. Well maintained cottage and grounds, safely away from roads. A few more kitchen items and I would have given it 5*. We did get some cheep wine glasses from the local supper market so didn't suffer to much. Also no logs provided and only two matches left. But it didn't spoil the experience.

    Many thanks for feed back, Stem less wine glasses are supplied and were in kitchen cupboard . We were not asked by the guests for fire wood ,the weather that week being very warm I am surprised anyone needed a fire ! Property Owner

  • "Very clean, comfortable and well equipped."

    Host friendly but left guests alone unless there was any problems. The beds were so comfortable, firm mattress but not too hard and we loved the downstairs shower, really powerful. The evenings were a little chilly at times, could have done with extra blankets just in case, I was lucky to have packed my fluffy dressing gown. Location was central so we didn’t have to drive miles to visit places.

    Many thanks for the kind comments we hope you enjoyed visiting North Cornwall despite weather! Property Owner

  • "We had a delightful holiday."

    The only inaccuracy in the details for the property was that fuel and power are included. In fact, only a starter pack of fuel is included. This is quite usual but slightly misleading in this instance. I was surprised that the wifi was unsecured which meant I was unable to use it to contact my office (which was a double edged sword!). The broadband was also slow and subject to interruption. But Trevenning Barn is a lovely spacious, well equipped and beautifully clean house in a delightful location.

    Just one small thing - the directions after leaving the A39 onto the B3266 said the turning for Trevenning was two miles but after going back and forth could not find the turning. We decided to go further on and found the turning which was more like four miles. This is only an observation and not a complaint.

  • "The photos really did not do this place justice!"

    We had a fantastic holiday - perfect settings, and super comfortable accommodation. We took our mum's with us - and the downstairs was perfect for them - brilliant twin bedroom was "L" shaped, and almost like having two single rooms, walk in shower, and easy access to the kitchen for their early morning cups of tea (Even had a sofa which was great when we were cooking they kept us company). When we were all upstairs - having another bathroom meant not having to run up and down to the loo, and the living room was awesome! On one night we had family come to visit us (They live locally and it was great to catch up) - but even with 11 of us upstairs the room was spacious and really companionable. The wood burner is not the usual "twig burner" that many holiday lets have to offer - but made the fireplace the real focal point of the room. Outside the paddock was brilliant for tiring out Milton our Labrador, and the front porch / rear scullery were great for wiping muddy paws (yes - of course it rained!) The owners were lovely - though we hardly saw them, and they made us feel really welcome. Only downside - and it was a big one - having to leave this wonderful cottage to come home. See you next year! Dave & Gwenda

The property

Located in the quiet hamlet of Trevenning, not far from the quintessentially Cornish harbour town of Port Isaac, Trevenning Barn offers a rustic, countryside family holiday.

With wide open rural views and extensive grounds to explore, this spacious and detached barn conversion nestles peacefully adjacent to the owners home and another, smaller holiday barn Trevenning Chapel.

From the entrance lobby on the ground floor, guests arrive at the farmhouse-style kitchen/dining area, with French doors which open out onto a south-westerly facing terrace, a lovely feature on a warm summer's day.

A handy utility/laundry room is accessed from the kitchen, and there is also a twin bedroom and shower room on the ground floor.

Upstairs, the roomy lounge is a most convivial space, complete with traditional features such as beams and exposed stone walls.

A cosy wood burning stove is the hub of this room (starter pack only provided) which has been thoughtfully decorated by the owners.

There is a further bedroom on this floor, as well as a family bathroom.

The garden at this property is a fantastic feature - a lovely, large open space (shared with Trevenning Chapel another holiday cottage on the grounds) ideal for family games and picnics.

Guests are also welcome to explore the shared grounds and fields beyond the garden; perfect for walkies with the family pet!

There is much to see and do in the surrounding area, too, with the beautiful north Cornish coast and its picturesque fishing villages close by, as well as some of the best beaches in the county.

Keen cyclists will enjoy the Camel Cycle Trail, a traffic-free trail along the estuary from Wadebridge to Padstow and those who prefer walking will discover mile upon mile of unspoilt countryside at nearby Bodmin Moor.

Ideally located for a simple break away from it all, Trevenning Barn makes a homely retreat whatever the time of year.

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

About the location

BODMIN

Lostwithiel 6 miles; St. Austell 13 miles; Padstow 16 miles; Newquay 21 miles.

Bodmin, the one-time County Town of Cornwall with its narrow streets, shops and pubs, is perfectly placed for exploring all that this fabulous holiday area has to offer. The outstanding surf, rugged cliffs and hidden coves of the north coast beaches and the quieter sands and river estuaries of the south coast are both 15 miles away while on the edge of town is the fascinating museum and haunting presence of the old Bodmin Jail. The popular Camel Trail for cyclists and walkers also winds its way through the town on its journey to the sea at Padstow. Close by are the open spaces and wind swept grandeur of Bodmin Moor while the incomparable Eden Project (11 miles), Falmouth’s National Maritime Museum (30 miles) and the beautiful harbour town of Padstow with its famous pubs and restaurants (16 miles) make for great days out. Also within easy reach and ideal for a fun-filled day out, guests can visit Lanhydrock House, the small town of Fowey and Charlestown with its Tall Ships, The Eden Project and Lostwithiel. There is a good choice of country pubs and restaurants in the surrounding area.

Note: Dogs are to be kept on a lead when outside of the property and on lawned areas, there is a paddock available for off lead exercise.
