The Pigsty

"We had the most relaxing time at the pigsty, with a great location, only a 10-minute drive to Falmouth and 40 minutes from other main locations in Cornwall. The accommodation was beautiful, a really clean kitchen, a comfy bed and welcoming hosts who were always quick to respond. A fantastic guide to what we could do whilst we were there, with recommendations for local food and entertainment. Would definitely recommend for a break, super excellent stay."

"We stayed with Rich and Hellen in the summer and found Trewena Cottages were an ideal base to explore the main sights in Cornwall … Eden, St Michael's Mount, Kynance Cove and St Ives, and of course great for Falmouth. Trewena is very convenient with on-site parking and supermarket, pubs and places to eat nearby. The cottages have lovely peaceful grounds which are lovely walk around and enjoy nature. Rich wa great host with lots of rec…"
