About this property

Treknow Summerhut

Enjoy breathtaking sea views at Treknow Summerhut, situated within walking distance to the North Cornwall town of Tintagel.



The hut provides a comfortable stay for two, within a self-contained annex in Treknow. The North Cornwall coastal footpath can be found on your doorstep, with the tidal beach of Trewarmett Strand within walking distance. Great for swimmers and surfers, or for those who just want to watch the world go by the 'Crows Nest' raised balcony offers uninterrupted sea views across green fields towards the Atlantic Ocean.



Set within an area of outstanding natural beauty, it's a perfect spot for enjoying a local Cornish hand-crafted gin, evening glass of wine or summer BBQ at sunset.



The hut includes a sofa seating area, electric effect fireplace and TV. Although small, the kitchenette provides a small fridge, separate 31 litre 4 star freezer, microwave, toaster, Ninja Max 9.5 ltr air fryer, 5 plate dishwasher and iron/ironing board. Guests have use of their own private en-suite bathroom with shower, basin, hairdryer, and WC.



Tintagel is famous for its connections to the legendary King Arthur with Tintagel Castle resting atop a cliff and boasting dramatic seaside views. Resting below the castle ruins is also Merlin's Cave, another historic attraction well-worth the visit. Further afield is the popular award-winning town of Bude with its beaches and ample opportunities for water sports. An excellent base to explore 'Kernow', with some of the country's most beautiful coastlines and beaches on your doorstep!



Parking is included for one vehicle. Sorry we are unable to accept pets at this home. For bookings and more information please contact Finest Retreats.

Cute and cosy with a stunning view

Great facilities and really welcoming host. The area is ideal it’s quiet and out of the way but super close to tintagel for the pubs and other amenities. The summerhut was warm and cosy, we had snacks and drinks etc available to us

Very impressed

On initial impression the SummerHut was extremely well equipped, and we were very impressed with the decor of the place. Fantastic value for money and a great location to see the main sites along the coast. Thanks! Honestly nothing :)

Perfect in every way

Literally on the coastal path with fantastic walks both ways. Tintagel is a lovely little town with a useful Spar and lots of coffee shops and breakfast cafes. The accommodation is small but also very comfortable and fully-equipped.

Perfect for what I wanted.

The location was amazing, out of the hussle and bussle of Tintagel, an amazingly quiet spot with fabulous views from the crows nest over to the sea. The bathroom tap broke but it didn’t hinder mt stay, all of the facilities were amazing for such a small space, lots packed in, very quirky and comfortable.

Here's a 5-star review for Summer Hut

Absolutely wonderful stay at Summer Hut! Nigel was an exceptional host - so warm and welcoming, and he was kind enough to provide milk, juice, and a variety of snacks upon my arrival. The Summer Hut had everything I needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay - fridge, freezer, microwave, kettle, and even an air fryer! The amenities were top-notch, and the location was perfect. I couldn't recommend Summer Hut (or Nigel's hosting skills) highly enough! Can't wait to come back

Summerhut at Treknow Review

The location, informality, friendly owner and having some out door space for eating and admiring the lovely views. Good parking. Too much light from electrical devices at night.

Hi Janet. I am so glad you had an amazing stay. Spending time in the garden taking in the beautiful views sounds like a perfect way to spend your holiday. Thank you for your feedback.

Perfect little place

We had an amazing few days at the summerhut! Its location so close to the sea and the coastal path made it perfect for a glass of wine on the sheltered terrace in the evening and the Studio itself provided a comfy place to spend time when the weather wasnt on our side. It&#39s also close to many interesting places like Boscatles beautiful harbour, Port Isaac, and walking Distance from Tintagel, which makes it a grear base for exploring the North of Cornwall. Can not recommemd enough :)

Quirky, cosy and comfotable with a lovely sea view.

We loved sitting in the crows nest, soaking up the sun and admiring the sea view. The summerhut was a cosy and comfortable space to snuggle when the weather turned wet + windy. The kitchen facilities were limited especially not having a hobkitchen sink was tricky. It would also have been nice if the outside shelter under the crow's nest was more weather proof.

Great time

My recent stay at this holiday cottage was absolutely magical! This place is a true oasis of peace, perfect for escaping the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The cottage is incredibly cozy, spotlessly clean, and fully equipped – everything you need is right there. The surroundings are breathtaking – beautiful nature, fresh air, and wonderful tranquility. Mornings on the terrace with a cup of coffee and the sound of birds singing are pure bliss! The owners are extremely kind, very helpful, and take care of every detail to ensure a comfortable stay. If you&#39re looking for a place to relax, be close to nature, and enjoy complete comfort – this is the perfect choice! We will definitely be back!

Good fun

This is a quirky venue which resembles a caravan in layout. Very friendly owner. Everything was over-technical. I had to ring the owner to find out how to work the shower! There was no kitchen sink so we had to wash up in the bathroom basin. It had a very narrow double bed.

Just what I needed for a peaceful break. I intend to return.

The accommodation was perfect for my needs. Quiet, self-contained and I felt very safe there. The host lives next door, but was unintrusive and respectful of my space. Incredible views over the Atlantic from the Crows Nest. The host met me on arrival to hand over the keys and was there for me to hand them back at the end of my stay. The property sits very close to the coast path and walking in either direction was a joy, although, of course, requires a certain level of fitness. Driving further afield is very easy. The kitchen area has a kettle, toaster, fridge and microwave which was plenty for my needs. Don't expect to be cooking meals there as the only sink is in the bathroom.
