“We really enjoyed our stay in Trevowhan House.”

The cottage was clean, comfortable and welcoming and we had good and prompt communications with the owners.

The cottage was clean, comfortable and welcoming and we had good and prompt communications with the owners. Exactly as stated in the particulars, the WI-FI is very slow. Having prepared for that by taking some DVDs, we were a little disappointed to find no DVD player, but it wasn't an issue overall. It certainly wouldn't stop us recommending the cottage to anyone visiting that area.

“Lovely fresh vase of natural flowers on arrival.”

Cottage absolutely beautiful- cosy, full of character, a little gem with beautiful views across fields to the sea. Loved the peaceful location.

“Had a lovely week’s stay at Trevowhan House.”

The cottage is period style in the main but decor and furniture in keeping with that style. Despite it being August, we did need to put the heaters on in bedrooms overnight, but they heat the rooms up well. Plus, feather pillows which is uncommon in most rentals but a really plus point for me, I am a bit princess and the pea, but struggle with hollowfibre pillows, so I slept great with these! Waking up each morning to beautiful sea views also a bonus. We used the wood burning stove in the living room a couple of times just to boost warmth. Without the heating, the property would be damp and cold. The kitchen well equipped though. On arrival a lovely bunch of meadow flowers in dining room, and flowers in kitchen window as well as bottle of wine. The small touches like this make the difference. If could make a suggested improvement, the larger bedroom could take a king size bed, and this would enhance comfort for guests. Otherwise we had a really enjoyable stay.

“The cottage was cold damp and dark,we had to put the heating on to get any warmth into the cottage, there was no way that the cottage could accommodate six people, one bedroom which had bunk beds was very small, an adult could not have slept in either of the beds in that room, in the other two bedrooms the double beds were small in length,my feet got stuck in the iron work at the foot of the bed,when we left we stripped the bed and pillows only to find that the pillows were heavily soiled and should be disposed of and not reused, in the main television room i can't understand why there were no throw overs on the sofa surely the owners could have two sets of covers to interchange, in general the furnishings was very shabby the only saving grace was the kitchen and bathroom was what we would have expected ,in general the cottage was not fit for purpose.”

Thank you for your feedback. We do take Customer comments very seriously. This is very out of character for this cottage. The owner would have been more than happy to help with any issues had they been raised during your stay. Thank you for your review Owner relations

“Lovely cosy cottage in a beautiful setting g.”

Close to the beach with a sea view and within easy travelling distance of all that Cornwall has to offer. Bed linens were immaculate and the beds really comfy. There were plenty of sitting areas to give everyone their own space when needed. The only draw back for our party was the internet connection. Wether it’s for social media, kids games, tv or work, pretty much everyone needs a decent WiFi signal these days and was a must for us as there was no phone signal or 4g. At present the owners are paying this for nothing as it literally does nothing. That said we wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

“Our second stay at this lovely cottage.”

Great location for exploring, comfortable and clean accommodation. Will be back.
Mrs Easton August 2019

“The positives are: lovely cottage building full of old charm, mattress was very comfy and bedding crisp lovely white the negatives are the cottage was very isolated and not in a safe walking distance to anywhere which therefore we had no other option to drive everywhere, no internet all week, only 1 channel available on the radio, limited channels on the TV, oven, grill did not work and the hob functions also intermittent so had no real cooking facilities.”

the cottage had very strong damp and dusty smell to it so had to buy air freshener and scented candles to try and mask. this property wasn’t for us and didn’t meet our needs

The cottage is one of 6/7 houses in the hamlet of Trevowhan near the visage if Morvah. It is in the very west of Cornwall with uninterrupted views to the ocean. The nearest shop is a 5/10 minute drive away in the village of Pendeen. There is broadband at the house however neither Trevowhan House nor any other property in the hamlet have super fast broadband speeds due to the hamlets distance from the cabinet. The broadband capacity works perfectly for checking emails or social media. It is less effective when streaming. There is a new tv at the house with multiple channels and two radios similarly with multiple channels. The cooker has always worked. It is a smeg with numerous hobs and a large oven. Trevowhan house is a charming old Cornish granite building. We have recently undertaken extensive annual renovation work including this year the fitting of an air circulation system, the lime repointing of an external wall and lime plastering in the bathroom. There is also a new ceiling in the stairwell. The house is very loved and we have numerous guests who return regularly to Trevowhan. We are confident that you too will appreciate its charm and character. Owner relations

“House name on gate would be good as it is difficult to see property from main road.”

Public footpaths extremely overgrown therefore easy access to dog walking was limited in our case as we couldn't let dogs off lead near the house. On a positive note we found plenty of beaches a short drive away which our dogs loved.
Mr Acharya May 2019

“The cottage was lovely.”

About the location

MORVAH

Pendeen 1.5 miles; St Just 4.0 miles; Zennor 4.7 miles; Penzance 6 miles; St Ives 9 miles; Lands End 11 miles

The charming village of Morvah is situated on the Penwith Peninsula, an Area of Outstanding natural Beauty, in North West Cornwall. The name Morvah is believed to derive from the Cornish Morveth meaning 'a place by the sea'. In addition to the church which dates back to the 15th century, there is a gallery and café in the village showcasing the arts and crafts of local Cornish artists. Just outside the village are several historical sites from the Iron Age and Neolithic times.
An open top bus service stops at the village on a route between St Ives and Lands End. This is a great way to get around without parking worries or a relaxing way to get home after enjoying walking sections of the stunning coastal path.

Perfect for exploring this lesser-known area of the county, there are so many fantastic things to see and do; from exploring the rugged coastline to pulling on your walking boots and criss-crossing the beautiful countryside, with public footpaths at every turn! The beaches in this section of Cornwall are fantastic and there are so many coastal villages and attractions that will keep you busy. Enjoy shopping in Penzance, discover hidden gems in St Ives' many harbour-front galleries, or find the perfect trinkets to take home in the novelty shops of Mousehole. The open-air Minack Theatre overlooking the stunning beach at Porthcurno should definitely go on the 'to visit' list, and you can also enjoy visiting the many filming locations of the BBC's, Poldark. Whether you're interested in a walking holiday, history, an adventure or a relaxed beach getaway, this fantastic area has something for everyone.
