At first sight the multi-award wining Trelowth Cottages looks like an idyllic model village with pretty detached cottages scattered amongst 30-acres of meadows and woodland. A closer look finds it’s far more. There are facilities including: an indoor pool, tennis courts, a fully stocked games room, an internet lounge, an indoor playbarn and a toddler-friendly playground; yet enough space to ensure privacy and independence, if desired.
Owners Pat and David Smith know that it’s the simple pleasures of adventures in the woods and fields that can make the best memories for little ones. They’ve even created a wild animal trail complete with statues of the real thing and prizes for finding the lot! It’s almost as much fun as making friends with both the two and four-legged variety at the daily animal feeding and egg-collecting rounds with Farmer Dave!
Accommodation Overview
Cottage one: is a secluded cottage with lovely views over its garden and the fields beyond. The lounge/diner has a log burner and picture window maximising the views. A separate kitchen leads on to a double bedroom and bathroom with bath and shower. The second bedroom is a large twin with its own shower and basin, plus an additional hideaway bed for a fifth guest. Dogs are permitted.
Stock up on delicious local organic produce from the award-winning Lobbs Farm Shop just 10 minutes drive away. Use Pat’s guide to ‘breast feeding friendly’ eateries, and her local recommendations for eating out with kids such as ‘Pinky Murphy’s café, Sam’s bistro, The Gilly Beach Café, and the Hewas Inn. Check-out the 'Pirate ships' (tall ships) at nearby Charlestown harbour and enjoy the simple pleasures of rock pooling at one of the nearby beaches. Parents will appreciate the trail leading to the Poolgoth Inn, a family friendly pub serving good food. For more glamorous evenings, babysitting is available so parents can sample the local restaurants – Jamie Oliver’s Fifteen restaurant at Watergate Bay is just 25 minutes away.
