Overview
Description
Conveniently located to the A30, you are taken away from 21st century Britain down the country lanes. You arrive in the hamlet of Trewerry. A 1630s watermill and trout-filled stream – beautiful at any time of year. The trains that once trundled past are now silent, the disused track now forms a tree-lined secret woodland walk, perfect for hounds. In the car park, listen to the stream gurgling over the weir.Enter the sunny and warm granite cobbled courtyard (Shared with our 2 bed cottage the Granary) and you have reached your destination.
Suitable for a couple the Bowgie is a stone built studio style barn conversion with roof timbers exposed; adding much character. Floor to eaves windows bath the south facing living area in sunlight, which has a door opening onto the communal courtyard shared with the Granary. The bedroom benefits from a king sized bed and an en-suite bathroom with a Mira electric shower over the bath. There is a fully fitted galley kitchen with a pleasant westerly aspect. The cottage is a great dog friendly home from home.
We are dog-friendly with plenty of sniffs in the grounds. Outside in the enclosed courtyard the utility room has space for your bits and pieces, as well as all the mod cons. There is complimentary 20MB FTTP WiFi, suitable for streaming video and all the tapping that one would wish to do. We offer electric car charging from the car park shed, subject to an extra fee, let us know before arriving if you want to use this service. You will need to bring your EV Granny charger with an UK 13Amp socket and extension lead.
We have plenty of space so guests can relax on their own terms. We won't intrude on guests but I will make myself available if assistance is needed. Though listed on this site from June 2019 we have been providing good quality letting at Trewerry Cottages since 2008. Our house keeping is performed by a reputable local Cornish firm.
We suit people who love the outdoors and want to stay in quirky historic property full of character, we are away from it all but close to everywhere. Trewerry Mill (which is next door to the cottages) dates to around 1639 and was partially rebuilt in 1820. The mill was one of several that served Trerice Manor (now owned by the National Trust and just five minutes walk up the road), and was in use until the 1950s. Across the road, by the stream, stands an old railway bridge. Trains used to run from Newquay to Chacewater, and would stop just outside the mill at Trewerry Halt. A private 1km walk along the dismantled railway which runs North through the valley from our car park, is open to guests, perfect for the hound. The views change with the seasons, from snowdrops, bluebells, foxgloves, campion and ox eye daisies, then the leafy canopy creates a more dappled shade in high summer. By the late autumn there are wider views of the pasture land used by a local organic dairy farm.

Review
By Thomas on 30-Sep-2024Die alte Mühle und das kleine Cottage sind ein außergewöhnlicher Platz zum entspannen. "Away from it all, close to everywhere" trifft absolut zu. Die Unterkunft ist sehr gepflegt und sauber. Es gibt eine Waschmaschine und gegen Aufpreis einen Trockner, so konnten wir, in der Mitte des Urlaubs, einmal alles durchwaschen. Die Küche ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man benötigt und im schönen Innenhof sitzt man an warmen Tagen entspannt, auch mit Hund, da das Tor zur Straße gesichert ist und der Vierbeiner nicht rauslaufen kann. Auf dem zum Anwesen gehörigen, gepflegten kurzen Trail kann man morgens perfekt die erste Gassirunde laufen .
Amazing accommodation.
By Heaford on 17-Sep-2024The accommodation was very comfortable and had an excellent trail which was useful for the dog. Very clean upon arrival. The bed was so comfortable.
