Little Trevarrack is the perfect place to stay for a couple looking to explore this area of Cornwall. We really appreciated the great off road parking and easy access to both the north and south coastlines. Highlights of our stay included walking the causeway to St Michael’s Mount at Marazion and glimpsing a basking shark off Porthmeor Beach at St Ives.

Beautiful cottage. Really helpful host. Sent useful information in advance including link to dog friendly beach. Some lovely welcome gifts on arrival for both us and our 4 legged travelling companions. Would highly recommend this cottage. Lovely enclosed garden from some relaxing time with dogs away from the hustle and bustle of the coast. On site parking a real bonus. We had 2 weeks of hot weather - lucky us - the slate floor was a real godsend as it helped keep the dogs cool
