We live locally and know the area really well. We're here to make sure you have a great time, whether it's surf tips from Sam or places to eat, your welcome to ask us for help and advice.
We use a self service check-in to give you flexibility when arriving, we might swing by to check everything is ok during your stay but we like to respect your privacy to.
Trowan itself is a peaceful hamlet located about 1.5 miles from the centre of St Ives. Surrounded by green fields, wild moors and the rugged coastline of this superb stretch in West Cornwall.
St Ives itself is a little hub of activity and creativity. You'll find golden beaches, oodles of galleries and restaurants, a host of independent shops and plenty of friendly folk.
One of your nearest pubs is The Halsetown Inn, a great place for an evening meal or drink. Head a little further down the coast road and you'll find the pretty village of Zennor and the magical Tinner's Arms, a very old pub with lots of character.
We'd recommend a car if you are staying at Lower Trowan as there aren't many amenities in easy walking distance. You will find public transport is pretty good in St Ives itself.
You could walk to St Ives and/or Porthmeor beach, it's about a 1.5 mile walk, or a 5 minute drive.
We're here to help if you need us. The rural location of the property means mobile signal is patchy, there is no mains water but the hamlet is supplied by a bore hole and private drainage. Please don't unload from the road. Pets are charged at £35 extra per pet per stay. Maximum two pets per stay.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Thanks for your review Nick we're glad your had a really nice holiday.
We did send the arrival details twice in the weeks leading up to your stay but for some reason these weren't received. Our email records showed they had been delivered.
A really lovely cottage in a small peaceful hamlet with sea views, it was a real pleasure to stay and it felt so homely!
Would recommend to couples and families, our little dog loved it too ... especially his evening walks en route to the coastal path!
Great location to nearby St Ives and so nice to be away from the bustle of the town this time and enjoy the garden (and parking!)
