Perfect for couples or those with children looking for a pretty and tranquil rural retreat, just over a mile from the award-winning moorland village of St Neot .
Set in the friendly owners’ garden with an array of wild bird life, and beside a babbling brook, this two bedroom cottage is converted from an 18th century barn, with high vaulted ceilings, original beams, slate flooring, oil fire central heating, and large solid fuel burner, making it perfect for a cosy winter break or relaxing summer holiday. The front garden is for the exclusive use of guests during their stay.
The cottage is within easy access of the A30 and A38, and is equidistant from the north and south Cornish coasts, with the fantastic beaches each have to offer.
Walks on Bodmin Moor are within ¾ mile and its location means it’s the ideal gateway for exploring the whole of Cornwall and its many tourist attractions.

A beautiful cottage in a lovely part of Cornwall. Mark & Zoe are intent on maintaining it to the highest standards.
A really lovely cottage/barn conversion in a totally peaceful location in a little valley - just the owners and a farm next door, otherwise very quiet. The cottage is perfectly located for exploring central Cornwall (or further afield if you feel like it). Mid way between north and south coasts with plenty of places to explore within 30 minutes drive. Zoe and Mark are really excellent hosts making sure we had everything we needed, giving advice on places to go and keeping us supplied with fresh laid eggs and salad crops. The garden is completely secure so if you do take your dog, as we did, they are perfectly safe. having said that, in the four days we were there I think that apart from the dust cart and the oil delivery wagon we heard about 2 cars go past the property. A really great place for a relaxing break. Nearest pub in St Neot (about 2 miles away) serves good food (suggest you book particularly at week ends).
Terrific place, very comfortable, clean and well equipped. Owners are really nice people and very helpful. Very rural location, ideal for walks on the moors and both coasts of Cornwall accessible within approx.35 minutes drive. Will certainly book again, thoroughly recommended.
Lovely place, quiet and secluded. Beautiful surroundings. Excellent hosts, would highly recommend. Dog friendly my pooch loved the little stream in the garden!
We booked this for us and our Labrador puppy. We chose this cottage from the pictures on web but on arrival it surpassed them. It is beautiful and in a wonderful quiet location and hidden away down small lanes . The garden is a haven of tranquility and dog friendly off a lead so long as it is not a wall jumper!! . We would recommend this to others unreservedly . The location is very near to golitha falls, lanhydrock house , cardinham woods and several reservoirs that provide great pooch walks (most of which they are allowed to swim at) . We returned home tired but happy everyday . The hosts Mark and Zoe are completely helpfull and allow you to get the most from your visit . I hope you enjoy this little gem as much as we did.
We had a fab week here, peaceful and tranquil environment with friendly hosts Will definitely be back, no hesitation in recommending. Thank you Mark and Zoe.
A really lovely quiet location where you can enjoy a completely relaxed holiday. Zoe and Mark made us feel very welcome as soon as we arrived and were always ready to ensure our stay at their holiday cottage comfortable and enjoyable.Lots of birds in the garden which were always a joy to watch at any time of the day.
We enjoyed a pleasant stay at Trenay Barns Cottage. Everything was spotless when we arrived. The fresh eggs and muffins were a nice touch. Mark and Zoe were very friendly and asked our toddler if he would like to feed their chickens, which he loved. He also loved the garden and liked watching the array of animals and birds which visited the feeders. The garden was beautiful and well kept. The cottage is well situated to visit the North and south coasts. Attractions such as The Eden Project and Lost Gardens of Heligan not far away. The cottage was a bit chilly in the evenings but the wood burner and electric heaters were very effective at warming it up quickly. Plenty of kindling , coal etc provided. The house was well stocked with everything you might need. We would definitely stay again. Thank you, Mark and Zoe.
Had a fabulous time here over Easter. Aided by great weather but rain or shine you would not be disappointed by this venue. Wonderful hosts making sure we were well settled in and with fresh eggs and milk. Lots of info re things to do and see but with plenty of privacy and your own space. Delightful to sit at the sun trap decking by the babbling brook in the garden listening to the birds singing in this private peaceful space.
Stayed for four nights during Easter holidays. Fantastic location- peace and quiet! Cottage was very clean and tidy. Mark and Zoe were very friendly and helpful. Very close to lots of activities/days out. Definitely recommend.
Our stay February, 2020
