Mrs Spencer April 2021

“Excellent holiday cottage and very comfortable.”

Lots of extra amenities which was great too. The only things to watch out for is that the living spaces are upstairs and the steps aren’t particularly great for young toddlers but the accommodation as a whole was great for toddlers - high chair, travel cot, animals on site, trampoline etc. We would definitely return! The owners were extremely friendly and helpful with local knowledge.

Miss Robinshaw September 2020

“We had an absolutely fantastic weekend in the property.”

The facilities were perfect - especially for the children with the pool table/trampoline and the animals. The owner couldn’t do enough for us whilst we were there and was super helpful with anything we needed.

Mrs Etwaroo August 2020

“I would definitely recommend staying at the Helford Cottage at Treverva Farm.”

The owners are so welcoming, they left some bread, butter and eggs for us and also they were very helpful as I needed to do two lots of washings (lots of towels and swimwear) and because the shared dryer was not working they kindly took in the washing and put it in their own dryer for us. The cottage is great - the beds are so comfortable and the addition of being able to play table tennis and pool was great for the boys in the evening. This is a great location for exploring Cornwall and also very close to Falmouth for restaurants and shops. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely return to Cornwall.

“Stunning property and really warm welcome by Michaela.”

Amazing welcome basket of bread, butter, milk, tea and coffee. Great location and really dog friendly. A bit cold upstairs but the weather was rather cold and wet.

- Mr Maher, October 2019
Mrs Savage October 2019

“On the whole an amazing experience.”

Considering we had a large party owing to it being my daughters wedding, there was enough space for us all to be comfortable. The location, the venue, the host and the goats all extremely welcoming.. One thing I would request fir the future was wall mirrors in the bedroom then it’s perfect. Thank you for s great stay.. we definitely plan to return. 5 stars!!

- Mrs Savage, October 2019
Mrs Waghorn September 2019

“A great house, with fab facilities.”

Ian was most welcoming, Marlowe, the Springer was a star and Ian’s son was the most polite boy. A great holiday all round. Thank you

- Mrs Waghorn, September 2019
Mr Francis September 2019

“A extremely comfortable and relaxing location overlooking the reservoir.”

Warm and friendly welcome from the host. The on-site bar is a plus albeit I didn’t get to use it as I was so busy visiting Cornwall. Overall, highly recommended.

- Mr Francis, September 2019
Mrs Farrance August 2019

“Lovely accommodation, just right for our family holiday.”

We were welcomed by Ian who told us about the accommodation and surroundings. Plus Ideas for days out and places to eat. We had a great welcome food pack waiting for us in the well equipped kitchen. Bathrooms were clean and modern. Beds were so comfortable. Many thanks for letting us stay. We hope to be back again one day

Mrs Stewart-Paver August 2019

“A large family gathering and room for all.”

All of our expectations met and all we needed for a comfortable stay. A beautiful outlook over the lake which also provided a lovely walk through the woods. The area has something for everyone, The beaches are not overcrowded and are interesting, with fish and crabs for the little one's to catch, the countryside is just as nice. I am disabled but managed to get about there and the clean air made breathing much easier. I managed a slow walk for almost a mile, when in London I cant manage more than 50yds. All in all a great holiday but would have liked a second week as there is so much to explore. Will do that next year.

Mr Mansfield July 2019

“Fabulous location.”

Stylish and well equipped. Very welcoming host. Thank you for the fantastic stay

Mr Perkins May 2019

“A beautiful property with everything we needed for a perfect family holiday.”

Ian, Michaela & Lewis made us very welcome on Treverva Farm which is set in an idyllic location on the edge of Argal Lake. It was also perfectly situated for us to be able to visit many of our favourite places; Padstow, Perranporth, St Ives, St Michael's Mount, The Lizard Peninsula and less than five minutes drive to the lovely beaches of Swanpool and Gillynvase in Falmouth. We would certainly recommend Halford and the other two smaller apartments at Treverva Farm and hope we will return again soon.

Miss Thair March 2019

“Myself and 7 others stayed in the Helford cottage for 3 nights.”

Lovely location, with a short walk down to the river where there is a small cafe called Wild Vibes where we enjoyed a wonderful breakfast. The cottage was close to both Truro and Falmouth, and was big enough for all 8 of us comfortably. Upon arrival, we had a hamper of bread, eggs and butter, plus there was ice in the freezer which was excellent. The bed was extremely comfortable, the kitchen was lovely and modern and there was an excellent view from the first floor. The only negative comment I would make is that the kitchen sides had crumbs on them from the previous tennants when we arrived, and the bathrooms could have had a slightly deeper clean, but other than that the cottage was lovely and clean and homely. The hosts left us to it for the stay, and kindly heated up some hot water for drinks on the last morning as there was a power cut in the area. We were incredibly happy with the stay and would definitely come back! Thank you

Mrs Prentice February 2019

“We had a fantastic few days at Helford celebrating my dad’s 80th birthday and visiting my daughter at university.”

Helford is in a beautiful location and the hosts were fantastic. We will definitely be coming back.

Miss Saxby December 2018

“We stayed in the Helford cottage for Christmas 2018, 7 adults 2 dogs and a baby!”

From start to finish the whole stay was beyond our expectations,Ian, Michaela & Lewis were so welcoming and accommodating The accommodation was spacious with large comfy beds and a generous sized living area and kitchen. We particularly liked the rainforest showers in the bathrooms! The accommodation was close to Falmouth town which is beautiful and was also near some lovely beaches such as Swanpool, it was a great base to explore Cornwall from! We would definitely recommend Helford and the other 2 cottages on the site (Dexter & Argal) to all our friends and family and plan to return in 2019! Thank you for making our Christmas!

- Miss Saxby, December 2018
Mrs Thomas November 2018

Ms Fryers August 2018

“The house was beautiful, very comfortable and well equipped, the owners live on the farm and couldn't have been more welcoming and accommodating.”

We were close to lovely beeches and Cornish villages so enjoyed a wide range of activities, it was always a pleasure to come back to a lovely environment in the eavening where we could spend great family time eating, drinking and playing games. The kids really loved playing table tennis, visiting the goats and horses and they particularly loved the family dog marlo. We were sorry to leave and would go back again and recommend the house without hesitation.

- Ms Fryers, August 2018
Miss Batten August 2018

“The cottage was in perfect condition and exactly what we wanted and expected.”

“The cottage was in a perfect location on a farm.”

It was really well equipped with everything we needed. Our hosts, Ian, Michaela and Lewis were really welcoming and so helpful. E had a fantastic week here and would love to go back in the future.

- Mrs Webb, June 2018
Mrs Krause June 2018

“We had a wonderful stay at Treverva Farm.”

We stayed in the Helford cottage, which was perfect for our family of three, plus an additional couple. The accommodation is superb—beautifully finished, clean, and very comfortable. The view is lovely over the fields toward a small lake. The location is excellent for sightseeing throughout Cornwall. Our daughter loved the farm animals. Our hosts went the second mile to make sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommended!

About the location

CONSTANTINE

Falmouth 9 miles; Truro 14 miles.

A charmingly picturesque country village with a few shops, a pub and a lovely church, set among green rolling meadows and wooded valleys leading down to the beautiful Helford river, just 3 miles away. Famous for its mild climate, this quieter part of Cornwall has the outstanding gardens of Trebah, Penjerrick, Glendurgan and Carwinion all within 4 miles. For nature lovers and those who enjoy boats, the misty reaches of the Helford river meander upstream to Gweek, where the world renowned Seal Sanctuary looks after the region’s many abandoned and injured seals. Falmouth, with its narrow streets, natural harbour and National Maritime Museum is just 20 minutes by car, while Flambards theme park (8 miles) and Argal Lake with its water sports attractions make great days out. The nearby beautiful Lizard Peninsula, with its outstanding beaches and quaint fishing villages dotting the rocky coastline, has the benefit of outstanding scenery, tranquillity and some great walks.
