  • "The Calf Pen had everything we needed for our holiday stay."

    Arriving we found a cream tea waiting for us which was lovely. There was no downside to the holiday, only our English weather, which didn’t stop us from enjoying the holiday and the surroundings. We found John and Sarah to be very welcoming.

    We’re so pleased you had a lovely stay at Tritchayne, and it’s good to hear that the great British weather didn’t stop you enjoying it. It was great to meet you and you’re welcome back anytime. Best wishes John Property Owner

  • "We loved the calf pen & grounds!"

    The owner greeted us and gave us a quick tour which was a lovely start to our stay. It’s the perfect spot to relax, with the shared social spaces & field for the dogs was a bonus. A lot of thought had been put into little extra touches to welcome us, a delicious cream tea and a basket with treats & basic things for the dogs. We’d highly recommend the kingfisher pub, the bear bakery & local butcher. We can’t wait to return!

  • "The Calf Pen is a wonderful little home from home."

    I arrived fully equipped, but didn't need to use the things I brought because so much was provided. Clean and tidy. Very comfortable. Laid out very well. The surrounding environment with the small garden and use of the field was great for my little dogs. Lots to do in the area. Peaceful and quiet.
