The Tractor Shed

"A wonderful stay at The Tractor Shed and an ideal base to further explore Cornwall. Easy to park (right outside the premises, (with step free access) in a quiet location with views over rolling hills from the rear of the accommodation and a pleasant outside space. The place is modern, ‘squeaky clean,’ with a comfortable bed and furniture and a well equipped kitchen. Richard (the host) was friendly and helpful and provided in depth instructions pre my visit. Thanks Richard for an enjoyable stay."

"Richard was great. As there was no one booked before or after us he kindly gave us early check in and late check out, without us asking. The place was spotless. Lovely and warm. Sofa really comfy, bed was great. Nice location, near lots of main roads for exploring around. Nice few places to eat in Penryn."

"Lovely place, it had everything we needed for our stay, additionally the place was very clean and tidy. Richard was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again :)"

"Great host, great property, home from home,"

"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…"

"From the moment we booked Trewena cottage we felt that Richard was friendly, welcoming and really responsive - offering details of what is available at the accomodation & within the area, making clear that he would be nearby for help if needed. We stayed in the Tractor Shed, which was so homely & comfortable - we loved coming back to the sofa after days out walking - so comfy. Also heated blankets on the bed! Black out curtains & dreamy bed linen also made for a good night's sleep each night. We loved the personal touches like shortbread & freah milk in the fridge to have on arrival with a cuppa. There was also a Christmas tree that made us feel at home, given our break was between Christmas & New Year. Richard also let us know that there wasn't anyone arriving the day we checked out, so offered us a late check out & the option to stay longer which we appreciates & would have jumped at the chance had we not had to head back. Great stay overall & would highly recommend. Thanks again."

"The Tractor Shed is a very well appointed place, with everything as listed in the description. Cosy and comfy for two, with nice furnishings and fittings. It’s a lovely spot in between Falmouth and Helston. Would stay again."

"The facilities are kid-friendly and the host is very amiable."

"This beautifully converted farm building was a great find with all the modern comforts - fully appointed kitchen, spacious living space and bathroom, and even our own private outdoor space. The peaceful location in Cornwall was ideal for … More"

"A really lovely spot. The view and outside area is amazing, the space was great, modern and cosy on the rainy days. Very clean and tidy, with every amenity you could want. Super close to a supermarket and Penryn/ Falmouth. A great location to get all over Cornwall."

"We had a lovely few days in The Tractor Shed! Immaculate little cottage with everything we needed, perfect for two; just a close hop to beautiful areas of Cornwall and lovely swimming beaches."

"We thoroughly enjoyed Richard’s place. It was one of the better Airbnb’s that we’ve stayed in in the UK. It was spotlessly clean with quality fittings and furniture. There was clear attention to detail and the apartment was comfortable and well appointed. Everything worked beautifully. The bed was huge and comfortable. There is a nice private patio at the back in the sun. Richard was a delight, available if needed and offering suggestions of local sights to take in. We would have absolutely no hesitation in going back to Richard’s place again."

"We had a wonderful time at Richard's cottage. he was very helpful and friendl and the accommodation had everything we needed. We felt very much at home."

"Had a lovely stay , the accommodation was immaculate and in a perfect location for access to Falmouth and beaches. Would definitely consider staying here again !"

"The Tractor Shed is everything you want for a stay in a beautiful part of Cornwall. For 2 people it is spacious and has every facility which made our stay exceptional. It was of a very high standard with all the furnishings and fittings fresh and clean. Richard and Helen were ideal hosts: available and helpful but not intrusive. We would recommend Richard’s cottages without hesitation."

"Lovely cottage in Cornwall. We stayed with our baby and Richard provided baby essentials (cot, chair, bath) which were super handy. Really beautiful spot, would recommend!"

"We had a lovely stay at Richard's! The accommodation was perfect in every way: modern, comfortable, cosy, clean and tidy. We came with our 9-month-old baby and our hosts kindly lent us a high chair. The location is also ideal for exploring the southern tip of Cornwall."

"We had a great time at the Tractor Shed. The shed is beautifully decorated (loooved the tractor mugs, the tote bag - the entire interior design!) cozy, and above all, very clean. Rich and Hellen were also incredibly kind. We would come back anytime. :)"

"Our stay was amazing, BEAUTIFUL place, clean and they have beautiful gardens, Host went out of there way to set up for my family to have a picnic/bbq and enjoyed the firepit. So kind and amazing host.will never be disappointed, Amazing, Amazing.Richard and Helen best hosts ever"

"An excellent base for exploring by car. The space was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Richard was a first class host. The Trewena website has loads of helpful suggestions for exploring nearby spots. The location was quiet , just out from the town ."

"Super little cottage close to the university and Penryn. Everything looks new and a really well thought out layout of the cottage. Nice little yard catching the sun and spectacular views. Very quiet. Hosts very responsive. We had a great weeks stay."

"The Tractor Shed was as enchanting as it sounds. Everything is maintained to the highest standard. The peace and tranquility has to be experienced to be believed. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this special place to any couple looking for a peaceful, quiet break within such easy reach of so many places of beauty."

"This is a lovely cottage. Nicely furnished and very comfortable. Great value for money. We were collecting my son from the Uni and this could not have been any closer. So if you are dropping off or collecting this is a great location. On top of this part of Cornwall is beautiful to visit and Falmouth only a stones throw away."

"Richard was very welcoming. The accommodation was spotless and had everything we needed for our short break. Penryn and Falmouth are very close by. It was perfect for us."

"Our stay with Richard was fantastic from start to finish, when booking with him and the welcoming message! Lovely clean stay at the tractor shed, very peaceful and private area with parking right outside. The grounds are lovely and great for a little one to explore, I would highly recommend staying here to anyone and definitely stay with Richard again!"

"The Tractor Shed has been designed as a compact but surprisingly spacious and comfortable place, well appointed inside with excellent parking and brilliant views. Richard is close by, has a very supportive approach, and can deal immediately with any issues. The cooking facilities are excellent, and very sufficient for those who like to cook for themselves, not always the case in some Airbnb facilities, and with a private patio!"

"My partner and I enjoyed an absolutely lovely couple of nights at the Tractor Shed. It was very easy to find. The host (Richard) is very responsive and helpful - he welcomed me to the property and was never intrusive throughout our stay; he even recommended a great local chippy. The property itself is pristinely clean, well equipped (yet without clutter), and practical whilst being charming at the same time. Richard had prepped the property with the heating just right before our arrival - there's even an electric blanket on the bed for those who feel the cold. The surrounding grounds are lovely and peaceful and Falmouth is a few minutes drive away. What more could you want? All I can say is that if you're thinking about staying - do it! We'll certainly be revisiting in the future."

"A lovely place to stay. Clean and comfortable with lovely views. Friendly hosts."

"A well equipped and cosy hideaway 10 minutes from stunning coastal walks. And Richard and Helen were fantastic hosts. Thank you both for a lovely stay xx"

"Where do we start?! We absolutely LOVED The Tractor Shed! It was very easy to find, with plenty of parking in the very well laid out carpark. The Tractor Shed is beautifully furnished and finished to a very high standard. We were able to prepare all our meals in the well equiped kitchen. The generously sized bedroom and living area both have french doors leading out to a private space overlooking the Orchard. There is also a beautiful bathroom with a walk in shower. Each room has been so well thought out, we felt comfortable, relaxed, and at home immediately. Richard was super friendly and flexible, suggesting an early check-in and a relaxed check-out on our paticular stay dates in January. We didn't realised when we booked but Richard has 3 cottages on site and immediately we thought how perfect in would be for a holiday for an extended family. Together on the same farm but with everyone having their own place! Just an idea ;-)"

"A really fab place to stay, beautifully quiet, great views (even though the rain!). Warm and comfortable, both the main room and the bedroom, and the bed was really comfy. Sadly, we didn’t get to walk in the fields and grounds around the property cos of the weather (just before xmas). Richard and Hellen were so helpful and dealt with the really small problems we had so quickly. Mabe Burnthouse is brilliantly located for exploring Falmouth and Cornwall generally. We would definitely book with Richard and Hellen again, they were so welcoming to their lovely home."

"Amazing!! Couldn’t have asked for a better host. Thank you!"

"Great stay, lovely cottage with everything we needed. Would defo stay again in the future."

"We've just returned from a very relaxed, short break at The Tractor Shed. The property is pristine and very well equipped, conveniently located to supermarkets, yet located just off a quiet country road. The communication from Richard has been outstanding right from booking and since getting home. We were also kindly offered later check out which we didn't need, but nice to have had the extra wiggle room. Sorry Premier Inn, you've lost a customer, we would not hesitate in returning to The Tractor Shed for our next Cornish getaway."

"We had a great stay at The Tractor Shed nestled in the beautiful Cornish countryside. The property is located on a peaceful farm with dedicated parking, offering a lovely setting and a true sense of escape. The amenities are top-notch – from the cozy, well-appointed interiors to the fully equipped kitchen and our own outdoor space, everything is designed for comfort and relaxation. A perfect home away from home stay, and within very easy reach to the university campus at Penryn and Falmouth. A tranquil countryside experience with all the modern comforts, this was the perfect stay."

"The Tractor Shed was an absolute delight to stay at. It was clean, and felt fresh. Living space was just right for 2 adults and has a gorgeous kitchen to cook in. It’s fully equipped. The sofas were extremely comfy for a sofa day where we read books and I cross stitched my heart out. The bed was super comfortable and Richard was kind enough to ensure the heated blanket was put on the bed! The heating was excellent in the tractor shed, we never went cold. The fridge was spacious but we realised that we had forgotten to buy butter after we went shopping. Fear not, Richard came to the rescue with some butter! It was surrounded by lovely acres of field and was about 10 minutes to Falmouth. Transport was mostly used with driving or taxis. Thank you for having us, it felt like home from home!"

"Richard was very helpful, the tractor shed was perfect for me working in the southwest for 3 days, and had everything you would need. would recommend anyone staying here."

"Beautiful, well equipped cottage in a great location with friendly, responsive hosts. We really enjoyed our week here exploring Cornwall!"

"Such a lovely airbnb with great hosts. Clean and well presented, great to have our own parking. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen had what we needed. Easy to get onto the main roads to explore Cornwall and our favourite day was the one day road trip recommended by the hosts around The Lizard it was unforgettable! We did find the bedroom got quite hot at night, it must be well insulated. The hosts do ask guests to hoover round at the end of the stay. One of our favourite parts of the airbnb was when the hosts offered to get everything together for a fire pit for us which was amazing and so kind, we really enjoyed the fire pit under the stars! We loved our stay and would recommend it thanks so much!"

"Had a lovely time at The Tractor Shed. Great parking, location, easy to access, and the place is very nicely appointed. Only slight negatives were: we thought they'd be easier access to the field/grounds in the pics, and the shower wasn't great (if I lived there I'd be updating it). But these are relatively minor quibbles. Can confidently recommend a holiday here."

"The Tractor Shed truly felt like a home away from home. It was clean and matched the photos and description. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Richard and Hellen's hospitality was amazing and always responsive. I would definitely come back again!"

"Very comfortable, well equipped accommodation & really helpful, friendly hosts - would not hesitate to book again."

"beautiful stay, honestly can't thank him enough"

"A great location just outside of Falmouth. The Tractor Shed is, I think, new this year and has been well converted and fitted out to an excellent standard. Rich is a great friendly host. Very responsive to any requests and is obviously tryjng to make your stay as comfortable as possible. We would definitely stay here again if we revisit the area."

"Really enjoyed our stay. Was a much bigger space than the photos showed. Very clean and Richard was a great host. Would be happy to return and would highly recommend."

"The Tractor shed was a great place everything was as shown in photos"

"Really enjoyed our stay at Richard’s place. Nicely set within their own private grounds, good outdoor space, good facilities inside the accommodation. Clean & comfy!"

"This was a great spot to explore the west of Cornwall. Close to Falmouth but also able to access further afield easily. The cottage was immaculate and very comfortable- a home away from home. Would definitely make a return visit in the future."

"A lovely, clean , cosy, peaceful cottage for two. Excellent links for Cornwall. Great value for money and a lovely host."

"The place is beautifully done up, has all amenities required from a washing machine to a fully functioning kitchen, comfortable bed and shower, and spotlessly clean. The location is such that it took us about 35 minutes to Lizard Point (must visit), about an hour to Minack, hardly 10 minutes to the quaint seaside town of Falmouth. And we enjoyed the drive through the beautiful country side. Parking is right outside the space so very convenient too. Only would advise guests to carry their own shower gel and other toiletries as well as kitchen condiments if planning to cook. Cannot fault the host here because very clearly mentioned as such in the listing. Host stays on the premise so was always responsive. In sum, our stay was comfortable and lovely. Would not at all mind staying again."

"Richard and Hellen were excellent hosts, very friendly and helpful without being at all intrusive. Richard was always quick to respond with information and advice about the locality. He has worked hard to create an attractive cottage from the old tractor shed . It had everything we needed and was very clean and comfortable .The location was good - a very easy drive into Falmouth and lots to do in the area. Many thanks"

"I'm very happy that we choosen Trewena Cottage as our base of our Cornwall road trip. The cottage is beautiful and clean, it has most things that we needed, large parking space and easy access. Location is at the edge of Falmouth so it is easy to get to petrol station and grocery. Let's be honest, every journey in Cornwall is not going to be short if you want to explore most part of South/South West Cornwall, be ready to spent around 1.5 - 2 hours per day in the car, which the scenery will make up for it. Luckily we had a few days of good weather in between the rainy days, so we have fully utilized it and explore as much as we can. Richard is very responsive and respectful for our communication and stay. No complains at all. I appreciate him as a host."

"We had a great stay at the Tractor Shed! The accommodation was perfect, and had everything we needed. Rich and Hellen were friendly and welcoming, and the instructions/guide emailed over before we arrived were very helpful. We wish we could have stayed longer, and wouldn’t hesitate to visit again!"

"We stayed at Richard's Airbnb for a long weekend, and it was excellent from start to finish. The check in with Richard was easy, and the accommodation was fabulous - spacious, comfortable, well thought out and equipped, and with loads of really thoughtful personal touches, which really made it stand out. We will definitely be staying here again next time we're in the area, and can highly recommend it."

"Had a wonderful stay at Cornish Vistas. Setting is idyllic and close to Penryn and only a short drive to beautiful Falmouth. Nearby supermarket, pub and even a local craft beer brewery. Rich and Hellen were very friendly hosts with comprehensive local knowledge."
