Trevone Cottages

Nestled among rolling fields leading down to a golden beach

Picturesque Trevone is a North Cornwall coast classic. Flanked by high sea cliffs, holidays in Trevone Bay offer inspirational coastal and countryside scenery, with a wide expanse of golden sand. The coastal village is set in a National Landscape with stunning cliff path walks.

Situated just 2 miles away from the charming fishing harbour of Padstow, our Trevone cottages are popular with families, surfers, and walkers. In the summer, the village becomes a vibrant hub of activity, including Cornish summer fetes and local events. Self-catering holiday cottages in Trevone offer the ultimate beach experience.

Rugged cliffs shelter the beach with rocky outcrops, which plunge into the Atlantic Ocean. The soft, fine sand and sheltered alcoves are perfect for stretching out and soaking up the sea views. With gently sloping sand, the lifeguard-patrolled beach is safe for swimming and paddling in the shallows.

Like much of North Cornwall, Trevone is a popular surfing beach. The angle of the beach offers partial protection from the biggest swells and prevailing winds, creating gentle rolling waves for board riding. At the beach entrance, surfboards, bodyboards and wetsuits can be hired from the well-stocked surf shop.

There are rocky ledges with hidden rock pools to discover on either side of the beach. Next to Trevone Beach, you’ll find Newtrain Bay, also named Rocky Beach, which is perfect for rock pooling, crabbing, and collecting shells. At low tide, a natural tidal pool appears, which is popular with paddlers, bathers, and swimmers.

Next to the beach car park is a relaxed cafe serving Cornish pasties, sandwiches, and ice creams. A short stroll up the road is the village shop, tearoom, and Fairtrade Art Gallery. At the heart of the community is a village pub, which serves good food and drink.

Follow the South West Coast Path north to Padstow, or walk south to Trevose Head and Harlyn Bay. Beware of the “blow hole” on the sea cliffs above. The collapsed sea cave is a natural phenomenon that draws people to watch the crashing waves below.

Trevone is at the heart of Cornwall’s gastronomic north shore. Visitors are spoilt for choice with places to eat in nearby Padstow, plus St Merryn village is also close by, with a traditional fish and chip shop, deli, and several pubs, including the renowned The Cornish Arms.
