Information about the host

Treganoon House is a rural Victorian Farmhouse, once the largest farm in the Parish, but over the years bits of land and barns have been sold off. What remains is a lovely old granite home surrounded by fields. In 2013 we took it on and have slowly been restoring it, whilst establishing a small holding in the surrounding 5 acres - Grand Designs meets The Good Life. We have spent the past eight years renovating the house, creating our family home and providing a lovely rural location for our guests to enjoy. We have four guest rooms available, offering a choice of sleeping arrangements, ensuring that there is something that suits everyone. Treganoon House is found off a narrow Cornish lane that leads to a neighbouring dairy farm. It is very quiet here, even in the midsummer madness it simply feels like you are escaping the crowds. As a guest recently said "Excellent, secluded deep countryside location, perfect to wind down from a busy life." In 2021 we are offering rooms on a board only basis. Guests are welcome to provide their own cereal to eat in their rooms (crockery provided) or we can recommend a number of good local eateries to visit for a tasty breakfast.

Guests are free to walk in our two fields that we planted up with saplings in 2013 with the hope that one day it will become a small woodland. Recently we have seen wildlife return - nesting Barn Owls, Sparrowhawks and Woodpeckers along with deer, squirrels and badgers are now all regularly sighted in our fields. The views of the local granite tor, Helman Tor, amazing sunsets and, if you're lucky, a barn owl on patrol can all be seen from our top field. Guests are also free to relax in our back garden. Our garage is available to store bikes, surfboards and other beach gear in. As a family we love travel and, when we aren't, we love to hear about other people's adventures - one of the best things about being a host is getting the world come to us. We have been hosting people for a couple of years and are always happy to spend some time talking about the many wonderful places to visit in Cornwall as well as hearing more about where people have come from.

We are located in the rolling hills of the Cornish countryside, with granite walls and farm buildings common throughout the area. We are half way between the villages of Luxulyan and Lanlivery, both of which have nice pubs serving food. Getting to us will mean going off the beaten track, although we're only 10 minutes from the A30 it really does feel like you are in the heart of the Cornish countryside; the lanes to our house are quite narrow and in spring the hedgerows are full of flower. Here the air is fresh and clean and the night sky dark. It's quiet with most of the noise coming from the birdsong. The Eden Project, Heligan Gardens and the National Trust's Lanhydrock House are all nearby to explore. Many guests use us as a base to explore Cornwall; Tintagel Castle, St Michaels' Mount and even the Minnack Theatre are all good days out from us and the beaches on both the North and South coasts are just a short 20-40 minute drive away.
