Trengove Farm Cornwall Self Catering Holiday cottages in Portreath

 

Trengove Farm Holiday Cottages is a listed farmhouse and is surrounded by open countryside and is between the old Cornish tin mining village of Illogan, Portreath Beach and Tehidy Country Park.

The farmhouse, dates back to the early 1600’s and is full of Cornish character, with beautiful stained-glass windows, huge granite fireplaces, original staircases and beamed ceilings. It was also the home of a notorious 19th century smuggler, William Burgess.

The farm is ideally situated to take advantage of both the coast and countryside, a choice of footpaths from the farm, either through a pleasant wooded valley or across open fields, leads down to Portreath Beach and to some of the most spectacular Cliffside scenery in Cornwall. Situated near to the entrance of the farm is Tehidy Country Park, a tranquil 250 acre site of woodland, lakes, footpaths and cycle trails as well as an impressive golf course.

The proximity of the A30 trunk road makes other areas of Cornwall and towns easily accessible. St. Ives and Falmouth are 25 minutes drive, The Lizard, Padstow and the renowned Eden Project are about 50 minutes, while the county town of Truro with its cathedral and high street shops is but twenty minutes away.
