Utterly charming from the outset, The Mews began life as a humble cowshed and is now a beautifully converted luxury holiday cottage that sits in a quiet, rural setting on the northern coast of Cornwall. Hidden down a little country lane in the small hamlet of Tresean, this home is an amble away from the golden sands of Holywell Bay and Crantock beach and within a mere ten minute drive of the vibrant town of Newquay.
Set over two floors, the cottage is arranged with its sleeping and bathing on the ground floor and the living / entertainment space upstairs. Comfortable and spacious, both bedrooms feature elegant metal framed beds, crisp white linen and ample storage space, with the modern family bathroom easily accessible to both rooms, and fitted with a large shower cubicle and rainfall shower head.
Upstairs, individual pieces of furniture lend an authentic essence to the living room where a huge sinkable sofa tempts afternoon naps and languid evenings in front of the log burner. The high apex ceiling and overhead windows flood the room with sunlight so that even on wintry days the room feels bright and welcoming.
Open plan indoor/outdoor living combine beautifully where the kitchen and dining area open out on to a fantastic private terrace; the perfect place to enjoy a barbecue or a bottle of bubbly, and a fabulous enclosed garden means more time spent outside, soaking up the Cornish sun or enjoying a breath of fresh, countryside air.
Decorative timber beams and accents of metallic silver create a chic edge to the wonderfully social, contemporary kitchen which is amply equipped for whipping up a few culinary classics, and a large dining table with seating makes the ideal place to exchange the day's anecdotes while enjoying a fabulous meal together.
For those guests travelling with four-legged friends in tow, there are lots of dog-friendly beaches within close proximity of the cottage including Crantock Beach that permits dogs off leads all year round. A variety of cycle routes, walking paths and surrounding villages in the area mean plenty of opportunity for exploring the beautiful landscape.
An EV charger will be installed on 20th April for guest use. The charging facility will be app-based requiring guests to register before use.

perfectly little holiday home
It was such a lovely holiday cottage and it was so much bigger inside than I realised it would be. I would recommend that people drive in and reverse out as it is very tight for parking. The owner was amazing and we had a lovely stay here.

Stylish, genuinely dog-friendly property.
The weather was mixed so even more important to stay in a tasteful, well equipped property. We loved the patio with the lights on, the large comfy sofa, the bright airy feel. The Mews is tucked away but very convenient for Holywell beach and dog walks on Cubert common.

Mews Stay
Clean and well catered for all needs & activities. Parking a bigger car with sensors in a tight lane may get annoying, Secure garden for our dog and easy access to beaches Recommend and am sure we will be back (As this was our 1st holiday in 4yrs after being living kidney donor to my wife last July).

Great
This was our second visit to the Mews and as to last year we had a excellent week with outstanding weather. The property had all we required to make our holiday very relaxing and comfortable.
Good walks to Crantock, Polly Joke Bay and Holywell Bay.
Look forward to returning again soon.

Beautiful
We had a lovely family holiday at The Mews. The wetsuits provided were a great benefit, as we wanted our young people to have a go at surfing. The bird feeder was beautiful. It gave us a very comfortable place to stay during our visit to Newquay.

Lovely house in a fantastic location.
We have stayed at The Mews two years running as we were so impressed after the first visit. The house is lovely and airy, yet cosy and comfortable. The location is ideal for travelling to Newquay, Truro, Padstow etc and is within a couple of miles of two stunning beaches if you want to stay local. The owners have thought of every detail and provided everything you will need to self cater. The beds have crisp white cotton sheets and duvet covers and the towels provided are soft and white. The garden is fully enclosed so its safe for dogs and little ones, and there is ample parking. They always provide a lovely welcome basket full of Cornish goodies and you will find milk, tea and coffee on arrival,

Lovely House, Great Location.
Wonderful place to stay, the house clean, cosy and has everything you need for a home from home stay.
Great location for exploring Cornwall. Close to some amazing beaches and only short drives to the must visit tourist hotspots.
Although we couldn’t use the garden (visited in January) it is a lovely little space and totally dog friendly which is always a bonus when travelling with four legged family members.
Communication was great and we really appreciated the call from Ian on arrival day.
Thoroughly recommend The Mews and fully intend to come and stay again in the future.

a brilliant holiday & accommodation
we stayed here the first week of October and what a lovely place it is. 1 and a half mile walk down to Holywell bay or porth joke where we saw lots of seals and only an hour down to lands end so perfect location. When we arrived we loved the little touches like milk in the fridge, bread and fudge in the welcome basket. Our dog willow was the most chilled out she’s ever been in a house away from home and we also loved the dog friendly touches like the bed, bowls and enclosed garden.
We will definitely be back! Thank you for a lovely stay

Back again
We have re booked this fantastic holiday home again as it really does suit our needs . This time we were not greeted with the usual welcome pack and our milk was unusable. Our other concern is the EV charge it appears to be the most expensive in the area and we used Crantock village hall charging point as much cheaper, the charge rate needs to be reviewed and addressed in line with others. The convenience of a home charger one should be able to charge at “off peak “ rates .
Everything about the cottage was great, beautiful and we couldn’t have asked for more, clean and very well stocked of all the needs for our stay, they have thought of everything. Our dog Hugo really enjoyed his stay too. Definitely recommend.

Hi Deborah, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We greatly appreciate hearing guest feedback. We are delighted to hear that you and Hugo enjoyed your stay. Please come back again in the future! Best Wishes, Luxury Coastal
This is a lovely property that has been thoughtfully furnished and fitted out. The kitchen had plenty of pans, glassware, crockery and utensils so self catering was easy. The only thing that could be added would be oven gloves but with covid etc, it might be simply that these are not presently viable. The whole place is airy and flooded with light. The living space is very well designed and there is parking for 2 cars. The local area has lots of appeal, 3 great beaches, farm shop, walks and a good setting off point for bigger attractions like Eden, Camel trail and St Michael's Mount. We loved it at the Mews and are grateful to the owners for sharing there Cornish home with us whilst we were in Cornwall.
Lovely and quite location with easy access to the main roads
It’s a little gem .. everything in the property worked how it should ... it’s very clean and comfortable and cozy We would highly recommend this for a break in Cornwall And have a lovely time as we did
Our pet dog enjoyed his stay as much as us
We will certainly love to come back ..
