Introduction
Hidden in the Cornish countryside, just a couple of miles from Padstow and the coast, this beautifully converted barn is the kind of place that makes you want to stay just one more night. Deep set windows and exposed timber beams tell the story of the building’s past, while everything you need for a comfortable stay has been thoughtfully tucked in around them.
Inside, the mood is warm and unhurried. Sink into comfy beds and wake up to birdsong and a proper Cornish breakfast cooked in a well-equipped kitchen, then spend your days exploring one of England’s most loved corners. Ancient fishing villages, wild cliff paths, hidden coves and cream teas are all within easy reach of 1 Tregella.
Whether you’re after long walks and early nights or a base to explore the best of Cornwall, this is a retreat that stays with you long after you’ve headed home.
Nearby
1 Tregella is a five-minute drive from the foodie mecca of Padstow, where you can dine in a variety of world-class restaurants, including Rick Steins flagship, the Seafood Restaurant. Padstow is also home to Paul Ainsworth’s highly regarded No 6 and the always buzzing Prawn on The Lawn, as well as an array of seasonal pop-ups. If fine dining isn’t your thing, you can be assured that you are never more than a few metres away from a wide choice of pasty or fish and chip options to keep the whole family fed and happy. If you choose to cook at home, pop to Padstow Farm Shop for a stunning array of locally grown produce, they even have a deli for picnic supplies!
Situated near the mouth of the Camel Estuary, Padstow offers a huge range of activities to tempt the adventurers in your party, including coasteering and paddle boarding, cycling along the renowned Camel Trail cycle path or heading out on a speedboat with Padstow Sea Life Safari. Surf lessons are available on most local beaches or hop on the ferry over to Rock to explore the other side of the estuary. 1 Tregella is a short drive away from some of the UK’s best beaches, so whether you are looking to surf or sunbathe, rockpool or ramble, this stretch of coastline has something for everyone.
Layout
Enter in through the sliding doors and straight into the heart of this lovely barn, the open plan kitchen and living room. A big squashy sofa provides the perfect place to lounge after a day’s exploring, and the stylish kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to create space for budding chefs to rustle up everything from BBQs to four course meals. High, vaulted ceilings give the room a feeling of space and light, enhanced by the large sliding doors with views over the garden. Also on the ground floor is a spacious twin bedroom with stunning ensuite shower room. The tonal palette and pops of colour create a restful room with a playful edge, the perfect holiday hideaway.
Up the stairs is the gorgeous master bedroom, which has modern nods to the barn style, with panelled walls and high, beamed ceilings and deep-set windows to keep you cosy on stormy Cornish nights. There is a stunning family bathroom on this floor featuring a walk-in shower, floor to ceiling tiles, and a contemporary suite.
1 Tregella has a beautiful rear garden with countryside views, the perfect place for dining outside. Railway sleeper steps lead to a raised seating area, surrounded by considered planting and plenty of room for that all-important BBQ!
