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 making friends of both the two and four-legged variety at the daily animal feeding and egg-collecting rounds with Farmer Dave!
Accommodation Overview - Cottage Seven

Bolsover Farm is an amazing place to stay. Accommodation better than anticipated. So much to do on-site - swimming, feeding animals, egg collecting, play barn, play park, trampoline. The hosts are lovely and helpful. And it is perfectly located for the best of Cornwall.Review dated 19/10/2017
