“Lovely location for a peaceful relaxing holiday with views of st Austell bay, we received a warm welcome from the owners and had fantastic weather.”

Highly recommended, you won’t be disappointed in this beautiful Cornish rural area. Perfect.

- Mr Trevithick, May 2019
“What a beautiful cottage in a fantastic location.”

Everything we needed was here and the cream tea was a lovely bonus. We definitely recommend Leghorn to everyone and are looking forward to coming back for another visit, possibly bringing more people and taking Black Rock too! The hot tub was big enough to share and was the perfect temperature. Both of our dogs had an amazing time too and having their own field to play in was the icing on the cake!

- Mrs Beacham, February 2019
“I had a wonderful stay at Leghorn.”

The barn conversion is finished to an exceptionally high standard, was fully equipped, immaculately clean, comfortable, and in a stunning location. Waking up and opening the stable door and taking in the sea view was breathtaking. Easy reach of some amazing ‘hidden gem’ coves that Cornwall has to offer.

- Mrs Smirk, October 2018
“We had a great week in a lovely, clean, well furnished, well equipped cottage in a beautiful part of the country.”

Thanks.

- Mrs Jacobs, August 2018
“The property we stayed in was lovely, the beds were extremely comfortable and the hosts Paul & Jane were most welcoming, loved the cream tea and fresh milk for a cuppa after our long journey.”

We had a sicky newborn with us and a mischievous toddler, they were most accommodating with us having to do washing and also having to entertain our little boy around their beautiful farm. Definitely would return and it's ideal location to visit most places in Cornwall.

- Mrs West, August 2018
“We had a great week in Leghorn, we stayed from 20th July.”

The barn is perfectly placed to see Cornwall, we enjoyed day trips to Truro, Port Issac and Newquay. The owners were extremely welcoming but respected our privacy, we didn't feel at anytime as though we were sharing a property which was really nice. The 2 fields to walk the dog on the farm had beautiful views over the bay and our dog enjoyed his early morning walk there. Par beach was great for walking the dog and was never crowded, just a 5 minute drive away. Overall we could not fault it.

- Mrs Newman, July 2018
“We all loved our week in the cottage.”

The view was amazing and a lovely way to start the day was with a cup of coffee and looking out to sea. The cottage was well equipped and comfortable, the dressing gowns were a nice touch. The kitchen provided everything which was needed. The cottage is in a great location and we never travelled far but saw some beautiful beaches and lovely towns such as Fowey and Charlestown. The Eden Project was a great day out too. We all have come home relaxed and refreshed after our fabulous break, which has been helped by the incredible weather.

- Mrs Campen, July 2018
“A memorable holiday in a beautiful cottage located in a tranquil rural location with sea views.”

- Mrs Caffrey, July 2018
“I would not normally write a negative review.”

However , after giving the owner an opportunity to financially compensate us for the lack of facilities- and being offered £15- I decided to. Upon arrival at the cottage we were told that the hot tub would not be ready until the next evening. We were incredibly disappointed as it was only a 2 night stay and we had only booked this particular cottage owing to it having the hot tub. We had taken our children kayaking and had promised them an evening in the tub. In addition to this the hot tub is housed in a roofed, dark, musty stone outhouse .

- Mrs Bain, April 2018
“Fantastic location with beautiful seaviews from the cottage.”

We had a really lovely break staying at leghorn cottage, it was home from home with everything you could possibily need and more! The cottage was furnished and decorated to a very high standard, we didnt want to leave! There was a cream tea waiting for us on arrival which was a lovely touch and Paul and Jane were very welcoming and full of information with regards to sightseeing. We would definitely Recommend this cottage to family and friends and cannot wait to stay again in the near future!

- Mr Thomas, March 2018
“What a lovely week !”

The owners were more than accommodating. The photos online don’t go the cottage justice. Would highly recommend it

The property

Scenic views sighting the sea on Cornwall's Riviera coastline can be admired from this beautiful converted barn.

Nestled slightly inland amidst peaceful countryside on a working farm in the hamlet of Trethurgy, Leghorn combines excellent accommodation standards with a tranquil setting for a relaxing break yet is a short drive to the long sandy beaches at Pentewen, Porthpean and Par (dog-friendly) and some of the county's major tourist attractions.

Well placed for a varied holiday experience, the renowned Eden Project is within walking distance; Charlestown, famous for its collection of tall ships, is a 15 minute drive whilst the exclusive waterfront town of Fowey; the cathedral city of Truro and the charming fishing village of Mevagissey are a 30 minute drive. Fun filled days on the coast can end with a soak in the hot tub, a barbecue on the sheltered deck patio or beside the warm glow of the stylish wood burner during the cooler months.

The interior has immense rustic appeal with a contemporary kitchen and two luxurious en-suite bathrooms adding a touch of glamour.

A pet sitting service is available by prior arrangement with the owners who live in the neighbouring farmhouse and dog towels and bowls are provided. Pet owners, walkers and cyclists can embark on the scenic foot and cycle paths of the Clay Trails and children will love to meet the resident Leghorn and Black Rock chickens, ducks, geese and pigs.

It is ideal for larger groups when booked with the attached residence, Black Rock , which can accommodate four guests.

Within walking distance is the Knightor Winery & Restaurant which welcomes families and St Austell offers excellent wet weather alternatives including a cinema, ten pin bowling and indoor children's adventure centre.

There is ample parking and secure storage for bikes/surfboards.

Charlestown 2 miles; Carlyon Bay 3 miles; Mevagissey 6 miles; Fowey 8 miles.

The old market town of St. Austell lies just a few miles from the south coast, and is famous for its China Clay mining history. Today, home to numerous beaches and sub tropical gardens, it is a popular place for tourists, and families, with plenty to see and do. Get back to nature with the wonderful Lost Gardens of Heligan and the ever-popular Eden Project, perfect for a family day out, or discover the delights of Caerhays Castle and Garden, flourishing in the maritime climate. Home to the St. Austell Brewery, this is the perfect place to relax and unwind, while sampling the delights of the local beer, after a tour of the Victorian brewery, and for those who love the surf and sand, St. Austell has plenty of both to choose from. Visit the beautiful sandy beach at Porthpean, or spend time at Carlyon Bay with its ever-popular shingle beach, a favourite for sun worshippers, but if you prefer a dip in the water, Polkerris is the place for you. Situated in a safe cove, it is renowned for variety of watersports. Whether it’s sailing, windsurfing or swimming you're looking for, Polkerris Beach has it all. Charlestown is a pretty, historical port just two miles away, famous for its collection of tall ships riding at anchor in the harbour, and is well worthy of a visit whilst staying in St. Austell. A short drive will take you to fashionable Fowey or the fishing port of Mevagissey, and with lots to do, and something to keep the whole family entertained, St. Austell is a great year round location.
