Introduction

View of the local area with Trevorrick Farm in the foreground

When you arrive at Trevorrick Farm just take a moment to listen...no traffic noise...in fact, no noise at all, just the peace and quiet of the countryside, the perfect place for you to unwind and get away from it all. Trevorrick is situated in a designated area of outstanding natural beauty, an ideal base for exploring the area on foot.

Footpath to the Camel Trail from Trevorrick

You could take a leisurely walk into Padstow - the footpath starts right outside the door and leads on to the Camel Trail. Or you could stroll along Little Petherick Creek to join the Saints Way coast to coast path which will take you into Padstow in one direction, or towards Fowey in the other.

Along the creek and estuary you will find curlews, herons, egrets, buzzards, kestrels and many varieties of gull. Around the farm you will see swallows, house martins and at dusk bats and maybe an owl. After dark, the sky comes alive with a wealth of stars not seen in the towns and cities. If you come in the spring you will see wild primroses, bluebells, bright yellow gorse, then later in the year foxgloves, orchids, valarium and many species of butterflies. During your evening stroll you may see one of our resident badgers, we have an active set nearby. Your children will be delighted with our Pilgrim goose and six Aylesbury ducks.

For the energetic why not hire a bicycle from Padstow or Wadebridge and cycle along the Camel Trail to Bodmin, or have a round of golf at one of the local courses.

On a fine day you may like to visit one of the local sandy beaches, then after cooling off in the swimming pool, you may enjoy a drink or cream tea while you decide where to eat. You could have a barbeque here while the children play safely in the gardens - trundle toys, a swing and climbing frame for the younger ones, table tennis or a game of snooker on the full sized table for the older children, dad included! You may fancy a stroll along the lane to the Pickwick Inn or the Ring O'Bells, both have restaurants. Alternatively, you may wish to treat yourselves at the famous Seafood Restaurant in Padstow which is owned by Rick Stein of BBC TV fame, but booking in advance is essential.
