This two-bedroom single-storey cottage is a treat for young families being one of just two newly converted barns on the pretty Treal Farm estate just twenty minutes walk from the beach and family-friendly pub at Kennack Sands on Cornwall's Lizard Peninsula. Owner, Kevin clearly had little ones and their parents front of mind when completing renovations offering comfortable country cottage interiors, and indoor and outdoor play areas.
Both cottages are built in traditional, craggy Cornish stone with beamed ceilings, wood floors and either a wood burning stove (Hayloft) or real fire(Bull Pen) for cosy nights watching a favourite DVD or the Digital TV. The kitchens have a good sized fridge freezer and dishwasher, both cottages have baths and showers plus the bedrooms are warm and welcoming, with one in each set up as a nursery room with two cot beds, which can be set up as cots or small singles, ideal for little ones.
Both cottages come with a full toy box and the owners have also created a cheerful play barn with soft play bricks, ball pool, toys, puzzles, baby zone and even free wi fi. The farm has an enclosed outdoor play area too, with climbing frame, swings, slide and ride on tractors so there’s no chance of children getting bored whatever the weather. Both cottages have their own patio with seating, BBQ and patio heater, plus they share a Jacuzzi hot tub where frazzled parents can snuggle into the bubbles to soothe away the stresses and feel like a person again – not just a parent!

A lovely property in a good location with great facilities for babies and toddlers.Review dated 22/09/2017
Fantastic accomodation, exceeded our expectations. Our son loved the freedom of the space. Perfectly equipped. Location is rural but quiet and perfect for a baby friendly break. A great safe beach is not far away. Would go back in a heartbeat. Thanks Treal FarmReview dated 01/09/2017
Bull Pen was one of the best cottages we have stayed in for a very long time and that is without even taking into account all the fantastic things on offer to help look after and entertain our little ones! Thank you so much. We can't wait to come back again in the summer!Review dated 14/11/2015
Great location, very quiet with an easy walk to Kennack Sands and other local beaches. There is plenty for toddlers and adults to do. The cottage is wonderfully spacious and very comfortable and the hot tub is the icing on the cake, don't forget the baby swim nappies. We would most certainly go back.Review dated 28/04/2015
We had an excellent holiday at the Treal Farm Bull Pen - it really does have everything you could possibly need for a short break with little children, and is in a lovely, secluded location. We will certainly be passing on this little gem to all our friends.Review dated 27/09/2014
Beautiful property in quiet location. A real bolt hole and plenty to keep children very happy. Our children did not want to go out sometimes due to the high quality playroom and outside playground.Review dated 31/08/2013
Wow what an amazing place The Bull Pen at Treal Farm is. It is so well equipped for babies and toddlers from baby cutlery to buggy's, bath toys to door bouncers! we needed only to pack clothes and a couple of 'special' toys for our 22 month old and 9 month old. The indoor and outdoor play areas are fantastic to have on site should you wish to have a lazy day. The outdoor hot tub is an added bonus which our babies loved as much as we did! The pot of tea and cupcakes on arrival was a nice touch. We enjoyed ourselves so much we will definitely be returning. Thank you Kevin and Suzy!Review dated 12/04/2013
