Perfect holiday

We were there for the second time. Like the first time it was wonderful. Lovely garden where you can enjoy a sunny summer day. The house inside is very comfy. It´s got all one needs. The location is very quiet and rural. The owners are very friendly and open minded, open to any queries you come up with at any time. We always feel very well there and surely come back.

Lovely, convenient and clean cottage

Our family of five really enjoyed our stay at Tresowes Green cottage. We were warmly welcomed and showed around. The cottage was immaculately clean and clearly well maintained by the owners. Very spacious in and outside. Its impressive how beautiful and serene the place is, surrounded by a green garden and a lake. Convenient location ( but not suitable for outdoor runners like me). Helpful information was available what nearby activities and restaurants there are. Highly recommending the cottage to anyone wanting to either explore Cornwall or simply enjoy some quiet time.

Wunderschönes Cottage und sehr nette Gastgeber!

Wir verbrachten mit unserer 12 jährigen Tochter 2 Wochen im Sommer im Tresowes Green Cottage in der grösseren Wohnung. Das 200 Jahre alte Cottage ist urgemütlich und trotzdem perfekt ausgestattet mit allen Errungenschaften der modernen Medien. Es gibt einen DVD Spieler mit DVDs, eine Wii mit Spielen etc, WLan etc. Die Gastgeber wissen, dass auch mal ein Regentag überbrückt werden muss 😉. Eigentlich ist aber auch das Aussengelände umwerfend und wir haben jeden regenfreien Moment genutzt um draussen zu frühstücken, zu grillen oder auf der grossen Spielwiese Badminton oder Fussball zu spielen. Der Garten ist wunderschön im englischen Stil angelegt und liegt an einem See (baden nicht möglich). Die 2 Ferienwohnungen liegen voneinander entfernt mit intimen eigenen Terrassen. Die Gastgeber Leslie und Johnnie wohnen auf dem Gelände und stehen einem stets mit Rat und Tat zur Seite bei Bedarf. Das Cottage liegt einsam im Grünen. Bis nach Praa Sands zum Strand sind es ca 2km. Also, ohne Auto ist nichts zu machen. Trotzdem sind viele tolle Ecken Cornwalls wie die Lizard Halbinsel oder die Penwith Halbinsel in relativ kurzer Zeit erreichbar. Wir sind überwiegend den Coastal Footpath gewandert im Urlaub. Wir würden das Tresowes Green Cottage jederzeit weiterempfehlen. Es eignet sich sowohl für Erwachsene, als auch für Familien. Auch Hunde sind übrigens willkommen.
