About this property
Trebartha is a remarkable single-storey holiday home idyllically positioned in the charming coastal village of Trebetherick. Comfortably sleeping up to eight guests and boasting far-reaching views across the tranquil waters of the Cornish coastline, Newland and the Camel Estuary, Trebartha is perfect for a group getaway to the coast. Follow the private road to the spacious driveway that greets you at the foot of this lovely dwelling, making loading and unloading an easy task. Dust off your sandy toes as you step inside your new home-from-home for the duration of your staycation, where you can unwind following a lengthy journey with a sumptuous seat on the sofa, gently warming the room with the glow of the electric fire in the cooler months. Discover the open-plan kitchen/diner, home to a fantastic collection of amenities to assist with your self-catering experience, including an integrated electric oven and ceramic hob, as well as a dishwasher to keep your space neat and tidy; a handy washing machine is situated in the nearby utility. Gather your loved ones together at the dining table to recount the days adventures as you indulge in a variety of tasty treats prepared by the designated chef, or make mealtimes an alfresco affair by throwing open the patio doors for a sociable seat on the paved patio; a truly lovely spot to soak in the last of the evening sun. When day draws to night, retreat indoors and choose between four well-presented bedrooms, a super-king-size room with access to its own en-suite or three twin bedrooms, providing the ideal sleeping arrangements for children, family or friends sharing. In the morning, kick-start your day with an invigorating rinse, or opt for an indulgent soak amongst the bubbles in the family bathroom before heading out for the day. Take a break from doing the cooking and treat your loved ones to a delicious meal at the nearby restaurant, the Oystercatcher, serving hearty homecooked food alongside crisp local ales, or indulge in a decadent slice of cake and a steaming cup of coffee at The Mowhay Coffee Shop and Restaurant. Take advantage of your coastal location and spend a fun-filled day making a splash amongst the crystal-clear waters of Daymer Bay, or follow the South West Coast Path north to the nearby village of Polzeath, home to world-class surfing waves, where you can try your hand at sailing, kayaking or paddleboarding. Jump in the car and journey to the fishing village of Rock, home to the world-renowned St Enodoc Golf Club; from here you can catch the ferry to Padstow and tour the 16th century manor house of Prideaux Place, discover the picture-perfect coves hidden amongst the coastline, or for a unique experience, adopt a hatchling at the National Lobster Hatchery. Explore the delights of Cornwall with an unforgettable stay at Trebartha.

The smoke alarm needed a new battery and continued to beep which was irritating, we felt that the beds could have done with a bit of airing and felt slightly damp also the under sheets were dried with wrinkles in them and made it uncomfortable to sleep on. The duvet in the main room needs to be replaced as it is spreading and the bathroom door at the end of the passage could do with a clean to remove the finger marks. More information from Sykes on the location of the bungalow would be useful as the sat nav sends you down a track which is full of crater size pot holes,there is a much easier entrance to the bungalow,also information on places of interest would be useful and local places to eat and shop,we found Flow's Kitchen at the end of our stay.

There are a few things that could make a stay at Trebartha great and need to be looked at. The beds are terrible, they are very uncomfortable, the headboards are poorly fitted on beds that have them but some beds do not have one at all. All of us including the children struggled with the matresses. The advertised bbq meant that we planned to have a bbq one night, it was gas but the gas bottle had about 4 minutes worth of gas which meant cooking all the food in the grill to avoid waste. We notified Sykes of the issue they said they would get it sorted out but never did. A fabulous place to stay overall but some changes need to be made.
