Situated in a quiet hamlet just minutes from the gentle south coast shoreline and between the seaside towns of quaint Marazion and bustling Penzance, both rich in history, art and culture. With panoramic views of Mount's Bay centred by the wonderful St Michael's Mount, the setting is idyllic. Perfectly placed for exploring Cornwall's south coast, green and intimate, with beautiful bays and peaceful coves, and the north coast, Atlantic lashed, rugged with mystery and legend.

Penzance is the gateway to the Scilly Isles. Take a boat, plane or helicopter to visit these wonderful islands. Walk St Michael's Way to St Ives the popular home of artists, sculptors and potters. There are so many galleries, restaurants and cafes for you to enjoy.

Have a go at the Camel Trail or Tramway Cycle routes, suitable for the whole family. Spend a wonderful evening at the Minack Theatre with it's seating in the rocks. The sea and stars the backdrop, beautiful and romantic. Remember to take a cushion though! Walk the coastal paths or join the Birders at Marazion Marshes and Hayle Estuary.

The Helford River with it's inlets of wooded creeks and pretty villages and the Lizard with heathland leading to tiny communities on the coastal fringes, are a joy to discover. Inland the narrow lanes twist and turn around small fields outlined by a network of granite hedges that flow with wild flowers from early spring through to late summer.

With so many water sports and activities available, there's lots to see and do. Relax and take things easy or be adventurous, the choice is yours. Whatever you choose to do Tregarthen Barn offers an ideal base for your Cornish Holiday.
