Welcome to your destination in Cornwall
Tresowes Green Cottage
Love At First Sight
Since opening our accommodation to guests in 2012 we have been updating, refurbishing and changing the offering of our two holiday let in West Cornwall for The Barn and The Cottage.
The peacefulness of this setting by the Wheal Grey Lake and its closeness to the spectacular coastline with its glorious beaches, hidden coves and wonderful amenities make it a wonderful place to live and visit.
Wheal Grey Lake
The lake offers beautiful views and an ideal place to relax after a day out.
A few changes since we arrived
We have been fortunate to welcome wonderful guests from all over the world, many of whom have returned again and again.
Perfect Location
We are conveniently located to visit such attractions as Porthleven, St Michael's Mount, Marazion, St Ives, Penzance, The Lizard, Lands End, Minack Theatre, Poldark Mine, numerous Gardens, Beaches and the Coastal Path.
The beautiful beach of Praa Sands is only a short distance from us with its restaurant and cafe. 5 minutes by car or 25 minutes walk
We are happy to make recommendations for places to eat and visit. Equally, if its a barbecue you want, we can recommend local markets to purchase fresh produce.
We love our guests
Most of our guests comment on how they enjoy relaxing in the garden for breakfast and again in the evening with a drink after a day of surfing, swimming, fishing, gallery viewing and sightseeing.
Local Gastronomy
There are numerous award winning restaurants within easy distance so we would recommend guests have a car to maximise their enjoyment.
Tresowes Green
Tresowes is located within a World Heritage Site due to its history of mining for tin, copper and china clay as well as its outstanding beauty. The hamlet itself is very quiet with only 48 dwellings, each set apart, providing privacy.
Our gardens surround part of the lake and offer stunning views of Wheal Grey Lake from the summerhouse, where one can enjoy a nice barbecue and
Happy Guests

The Barn
Our recent stay in Tresowes Green Barn was just as magical as our first visit.
Leslie and Johnny are excellent hosts and gave us a warm welcome. This place is a sanctuary. The Barn is comfortable and cosy and the summer house is the perfect place to enjoy peace and immerse ourselves in nature. The view of the lake is enchanting and we so enjoyed watching the birds and soaking up the serenity of the place. We had everything we needed and spent a very happy and restorative week. We would love to come back.

The Cottage
We didn't want to leave
The Cottage was like a refuge. The home and garden were beautifully equipped to ensure our comfort, right down to a wonderful welcome pack. We found it had everything we could possibly need for the duration of our stay and slept like babies in an ultra comfy bed.Hosts Leslie and Johnny went above and beyond what we'd expect from hosts to ensure our wee breather at the Cottage was unforgettable. They had many suggestions and helpful tips which were much we appreciated on our first Cornish visit

The Cottage
Our stay at the cottage was just perfect as it is a real home away from home.
The cottage is very comfortable and very well equipped with everything that is needed for a perfect holiday. It is located in a quiet, rural area, but it is perfectly located to discover all the best of West Cornwall and the next beach Praa Sands is only 5 minutes by car. The garden surrounding the cottage is beautiful and the summerhouse by the lake is a lovely addition to the private outdoor seating area. The hosts Leslie and Johnny are super friendly and very helpful. We definitely recommend.

The Cottage
A perfect place to chill and relax.
The cottage was extremely comfortable and very well equipped, with nothing lacking by way of kitchen and laundry room, and a super welcome pack. The beds are luxurious with excellent linen and towels. We found it a good base for exploring and liked nearby Porthleven for evening strolls. We enjoyed the beautiful gardens and lake, and our hosts could not have been more welcoming. We shall return.
