Tregella Farm Cottage is a lovely, cosy, converted barn, set around a central courtyard in the depth of the Cornish countryside, providing the perfect base from which to tour, explore and roam around this stunning part of Cornwall. The property is located near Padstow, a jewel in the crown for Cornwall, with its many attractions such as the pretty, quaint working harbour surrounded by meandering lanes full of local shops, bars, restaurants, and cafés. The working harbour provides sea fishing and sightseeing trips along the coast and along the River Camel which flows inland towards the market town of Wadebridge. Many of the cafés and restaurants are owned by the TV chef Rick Stein including a patisserie, deli, and cookery school where you can book lessons. The River Camel is a tidal estuary that flows inland from Padstow and has a flat, multi-use walking, cycling, and horse-riding trail that hugs the shoreline. You can hire bikes all along the trail and enjoy the ride. A favourite with the locals is to hire a bike in Wadebridge and cycle towards the sea and enjoy fish and chips from Rick Stein’s chippy before heading back.
Port Isaac, the setting and the location of TVs Doc Martin, is a great place to visit, and you may even see the stars filming the latest series. Newquay, home to the UK’s Surf Industry, is within minutes, and the many excellent beaches that the town is famous for provide all you need from hire to lessons. The town also has a zoo, cinema, and trampoline centre . This area is also abundant with golf courses from Trevose, The Point, St Enedoc, and Merlin, all within a short drive. The Eden Project, Tintagel Castle, and the Lost Gardens of Heligan are all nearby and easily reached. Horse riding, sailing, walking, and health spas are all available locally. Beach 2¾ miles. Shop 1 mile, pub 2 miles, and restaurant ½ mile.
