The Situation

Stephanie and Les invite you to savour the delights of their
17th Century Farmhouse,

Stef has created a wonderful atmosphere at Trewinney. You will immediately notice how welcoming and cosy the farmhouse feels.
The house is heated by the kitchen range, there is a wood burner in the dining room and a large open fire in the lounge.

The farmhouse is set in two and a half acres of land on the hills above Mevagissey.
There are several barn outbuildings and a small, walled kitchen garden.
We have several ducks, chickens and geese which keep company with Nutmeg our pygmy goat and "Mr Bunny" the rabbit.
The menagerie further includes,
Shukran, Tabatha and Gismo, our cats and Buster the collie dog.

Trewinney is sited a little back from the cliffs on the northern edge of Mevagissey, so it's easy to understand how every bedroom has
superb sea views!

The Accommodation

All bedrooms overlook the quaint front garden which maintains interest for most of the year. Every room has superb sea views , which change daily with the weather!

If a rural setting is a change for you, waking up at Trewinney can be an interesting experience! If you miss the cockerals crowing, or the geese and ducks calling to one another on the lawn to the rear of the farmhouse, you will almost certainly wake to the morning song, from the many birds which visit our garden every day of the year!
