About this property
Idyllic rural retreat with parking , near Porthcurno, Minack Theatre, Beaches
The Piggery at Tresidder is a Grade 2 listed building from the early 19th century and has been sensitively renovated. It is the perfect destination for a tranquil break away from the hustle and bustle of life and it's pressures . The Piggery is perfectly situated for visiting popular and picturesque locations such as Porthcurno, The World famous open air Minack Theatre, Mousehole ( quoted as 'The prettiest village in England' by Dylan Thomas, Sennen Cove ( one of the finest surfing beaches in the U.K),St Michael's Mount, St Ives and many more beautiful coves, attractions, beaches and villages.
Land's End airport is only just 4 miles away for day trips to the Isles of Scilly or catch the ferry from Penzance , 7 miles away.
The Piggery is situated within the grounds of the owners' home yet offers privacy in it's own surrounding garden where you can enjoy wonderful views of the countryside and wildlife. It is an ideal location for watching buzzards, kestrels and sometimes even peregrines and sparrowhawks. So many of our guests have commented that it's a delight to just stay put for the whole day, enjoying the different areas of the garden on the sun loungers or the secluded patio with the swinging seat or inside with the log burner lit and comfy seating.
We are only 4 miles away from the finest surfing beaches in the area , Sennen and Gwenver. On the South coast , approx 9 miles , Perranuthnoe and Praa Sands.We have a Mini Mal surfboard available for use should you wish to have a go or if you're unable to bring your own, Otherwise surfboard hire and lessons are widely available.
We have no light pollution here so it is the perfect spot to stargaze on clear nights.
The Piggery was finished in 2017 to a very high standard and offers a luxurious and comfortable experience with underfloor heating throughout property in cooler months, a wood burner and generous log supply, dishwasher, washer dryer, microwave, well equipped kitchen for cooking at home, Comfy King size bed, Powerful shower, Television with freesat , DVD player ,Bluetooth speaker, Barbeque, sun loungers and high quality furnishings in a relaxed, rural setting.
Wifi included at the property .
Unfortunately we cannot facilitate electric car charging at the property at this present time .
Simon and Zoe look forward to welcoming you .

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Zoe and Simon

I am a hairdresser, born in Cornwall . I lived away in London for several years but Simon and myself were fortunate enough to be able to return 20 years ago and bring up our 2 children back in the place we love. Simon is a carpenter and builder and has renovated this property and our house from derelict buildings.
Why they chose this property
Tresidder is a very special place. We bought the property 11 years ago and in that time Simon has transformed it to the beautiful place it is now. We love it for it's peace and tranquility and for being so close to nature.
What makes this property unique
We fell in love with the property as we could see the potential for renovating it from an old piggery to a wonderful dwelling. You can see all the window reveals were once little doorways for the pigs. Inside were granite troughs which are now placed around our garden.
