Grooms Cottage and Keepers Cottage, Higher Tregawne

Self catering holiday cottages for your dog and you in North Cornwall

Our comfortable, well equipped self catering cottages offer the ideal holiday location for a family holiday or for couples looking for a short break in North Cornwall.

Quiet and peaceful, yet just 4 miles from the A30 and within easy reach of the north Cornwall coast with its spectacular coastal walks and popular surfing and family beaches.

Dogs are very welcome

We don't charge for your dogs. All three cottages have individual day kennels, hosepipes and secure exercise areas so everyone can have a relaxing holiday.

Keeper's Cottage and Groom's Cottage (pictured above) are attached barn conversions, each with 2 bedrooms on the ground floor and a kitchen/diner/lounge on the first floor. The holiday cottages are furnished to a high standard and each cottage has a balcony with views over the surrounding countryside, the lake, the exercise area and the farm.

The Bailiff's House and garden

The Bailiff's House sleeps 6 and is a detached self contained single storey house with 3 bedrooms, sitting in its own large enclosed garden with ample off road parking.

Bringing your dog on holiday

As lifelong dog owners who take their dogs on holiday, we welcome dogs. We understand what a dog and its owners need on holiday. Our holiday accommodation is designed so that your dogs enjoy their holiday as much as the rest of the family.

Facilities for dogs

Each cottage has a day kennel and a hosepipe. There is a fenced exercise area to the front of Groom's Cottage and Keeper's Cottage extending to about an acre with a shallow lake. Both cottage balconies overlook these and dogs can run free whilst being exercised.

Walking the dogs in the exercise field

In addition each cottage has a yard so you can leave the cottage door open and not worry about your dog.

Bailiff's House has a half acre of lawned fenced garden for the sole use of its guests. This together with its large kennel and hosepipe makes it suitable for 4 to 6 dogs depending on size.

Keeper's and Groom's are suitable for 2 to 3 dogs depending on size.

We provide dog towels and throws.

Peaceful rural farm location

Higher Tregawne lies at the head of the lovely Ruthern Valley and its land runs up to 600ft at its highest point from which there are magnificent views over Padstow, the Camel Estuary, Brae Hill, Rough Tor and Brown Willy on Bodmin Moor.
