Guests say
Trewhiddle Retreat is a modern and clean cottage in St. Austell, praised for its quietness, thoughtful touches, and well-equipped nature. Guests appreciate the easy parking and the property's suitability as a base to explore Cornwall, despite some minor issues with location accuracy and ongoing construction nearby.
Guests consistently noted the property's exceptional cleanliness, with multiple reviews highlighting its extremely clean condition.
The location received mixed feedback. While it's a quiet, new development, some guests found it challenging to locate and further from the town centre than expected.
The property is generally considered comfortable, though there was a minor comment about the beds being slightly uncomfortable.
Facilities are well-regarded, with all necessary amenities provided. However, there was an expectation mismatch regarding the pool table, and a guest was unclear about the parking arrangements.
Thoughtful touches like a welcome pack and bathroom products were appreciated, although it should be noted that such gifts are kindly provided and may not be guaranteed for every stay.

Well situated for seeing the beautiful countryside. My only concern would be the quite steep stairs, I wouldnât have felt comfortable if weâd had children with us. Pauline Ishmail

The only problem I had was I didn't know where the second parking space was and a neighbour complained. It would be helpful to know where the space was. I found the property very well equipped, very clean, and very tastefully furnished. Had a great week in a beautiful property. Would love to return.

We travelled by train and although it states it is centrally located in St.Austell it is actually 1.3 miles and a 30 minute walk away. Bit misleading but we should have checked its position more thoroughly before we booked. Had a great stay.
