About this property

A Delightful 19th Century Beamed Cottage In Trevone Bay, 3 Mins From The Beach

Old Cottage is a delightful self - catering cottage that sleeps four in two bedrooms, one spacious double and one cosy twin.

The Cottage is in the heart of the secluded village of Trevone and is just a 3 min walk to the sandy beach of Trevone Bay and a 2 mile drive from the picturesque fishing harbour of Padstow, home to Rick Stein's Seafood Restaurant. Old Cottage is the ideal retreat for families, couples, weekend breakers wanting to take in the beauty the North Cornish Coast to surf, walk, rock-pool, cycle the Camel Trail or just while away the time on the beach.

After a full day out relax back at the cottage in the comfort of this fantastic 19th century property. The winter months are ideal for long weekends away exploring and then curling up in front of the fire. Summer is all about the beach, we have many happy memories of our childhood holidays rock-pooling, surfing and lazy days in the sun.

The cottage is over 100 years old boast an oak beamed living/ dining room, fully equipped bespoke cottage kitchen, a bathroom with shower and a lovely secluded garden ideal for those evening barbecues and watching the sun go down. You will find everything you would expect at home including tv, microwave, nespresso coffee machine, iPod docking station, Wifi, hair dryer, BBQ and a selection of buckets and spades for those
lazy days on the beach.

The property is one of the oldest in the village and dates back to 1890 with all the character that brings. Located in the heart of this friendly village peaceful village. There is a local village farm shop as well as the beach store for all your essentials.

Regrettably we do not take pets.

You, as we do each time we come to our home in Cornwall will find it hard to leave, and it will leave you wanting to come back again and again.

We had a lovely stay at Old cottage. We love holidaying in Trevone but are finding it increasingly hard to find properties in our budget. We felt the cottage was good value for money it’s small but has everything you need and great for anyone with a young family like ours. It was very clean and we loved being close to the beach.

Old Cottage

Excellent location, only a 10mins walk to Trevone Bay beach. Lovely quirky atmospheric cottage and nice yard to soak up the setting sun rays. Had a nice stay and would definitely use again. The only downfalls is lack of parking and also when we went to use the bbq it obviously had not been cleaned for a while and ended up cooking in oven.

Super cottage

We absolutely loved our week at Old Cottage. It was the perfect sized cottage for us (2 adults and 2 children). The cottage had loads of character and the courtyard outside the back of the property was a beautiful sun trap and space to dry wetsuits etc. We had everything we needed and the location was great for the beach and coast walks. We’d love to book again for next year. Thank you so much.

Cosy cottage

Excellent location only 10 minutes walk to the lovely beach. Quirky cottage with everything you need the beams are low but wasn’t a problem for us at 5ft8 any taller maybe so The only downside was the water pressure you can’t have a shower and use the tap at the same time but that didn’t spoil the holiday

Nice old cottage

Nice old beamed cottage half way up the hill in Tevone. Great beach nearby, also close to Padstow. Local pub (Wellparc) is quite run down, but there is also Rick Steins cornish arms relatively nearby and of course padstow. Cottage is on the snug side for a family of four, it is an old cottage after all. The living room ceiling is low anyone who might be over about 5’8 may need to duck the beams.The shower (downstairs bathroom) was a bit temperamental, but setting heat to 0 and turning it on and off again did the trick, sometimes after a few attempts. Reasonably equipped kitchen. Otherwise all fine.

Thank you for your feedback. The shower I believe was down to water pressure in Trevone which sometimes happens. I am here currently and all has been ok. The beams being a traditional cottage are low. We hope to welcome you back in the near future.

Lovely Cornish cottage in the heart of Trevone village

We enjoyed a lovely weekend at the cottage in December. The owner has created a charming home here, it's complete with original features. A great base to explore Padstow and around the north Cornish coast. We love Trevone for family holidays with our children - sandy beach is perfect for body boarding and surfing. It has a great cafe and surf shop. Rocky beach is great for dog walks year round, offers it's own natural swimming pool. Less than a minutes walk from the cottage is a farm shop offering a superb selection of local produce. From trevone we've walked to padstow, harlyn bay and Constantine beaches, all were superb. Thanks Nicky, for providing a lovely stay, we'll be back :-) The Portlock family

Quaint cottage

We enjoyed our stay in the 'Old cottage'. The situation of the cottage suited us. It was a nice comfortable cottage. The was no WiFi, unless you paid on a daily basis and no signal to make a phone call(I am with EE). It was quite cool in the evenings and it would have been nice to have had some form of heating, apart from having to buy some seasoned logs for the wood burner. The outside garden was a little sun trap but on most of the occasions we sat out the neighbours dogs were barking for a long time so we couldn't really take advantage of it.

Hi Lin Thank you for your review of Old Cottage I just want to reassure you there is WIFi at the cottage which is free you just need to key the code in taken from the back of the wifi box at no charge. There is also additional heating in the form of storage heaters that just need to switched on at the wall. As for the dog it must have been a guest dog next door as we have never had an issue. I can only apologise. I am glad you enjoyed your stay. Many thanks Nicky

Best holiday in the U.K. ever.

We stayed at Old Cottage the last 2 weeks of July 2018, we were so lucky having uninterrupted sunshine everyday. Old Cottage was gorgeous it was equipped with everything you needed for your holiday a true home away from home and we cannot thank Nicky enough for letting us stay there in her beautiful home. Good sized lounge, kitchen, bathroom and two good sized bedrooms were perfect for my husband, my 2 daughters and myself. Located a 5 minute walk from the beautiful beach of Trevone and a 5 minute drive from Padstow. We had great walks in the morning and enjoyed the most fantastic sunsets in the evenings. The farm shop is just across the road and there is a shop and restaurant on the beach. Nicky was fantastic and made booking, arrival and departure so easy. We will definitely be back to Old Cottage we said that we would live there permanently if we had the chance, what a life that would be.
