Surrounded by beautiful coastal and inland scenery, Trevigue is a wonderful location for a peaceful, relaxing and memorable holiday with miles of stunning coastal walks, isolated beaches and ancient woodland to explore.

Trevigue farm has three miles of spectacular, rugged coastline with cliffs rising to 720 feet - the highest in Cornwall - as well as the unspoilt and hauntingly beautiful Strangles beach where the famous author, Thomas Hardy, walked with his wife Emma almost a century ago. There are numerous walks along the cliffs and out to sea you may spot basking sharks, seals and dolphins.

Trevigue is also a wildlife haven and you can see feral goats and moorland ponies roaming on the coastal heath land as well as buzzards and kestrels wheeling overhead and a wide diversity of plants and butterflies at your feet.

Farm conservation tours, explorations deep into the ancient woodland and nocturnal badger watches are just a few of the daily events organised by the resident conservationist, Francis Crocker.

St Genny's Church Crackington Haven beach with its golden sands and rockpools is less than two miles from the farm and a short walk from the beach you will find St Genny's church perched on the clifftops - a tranquil place to sit and contemplate.

Whether you wish to laze on the beach enjoying a Cornish clotted cream ice-cream, surf the waves, explore the local flora and fauna or find a lovely, hidden spot for a picnic at High Cliff, Strangles beach or in Eastwood Valley, there is something for everyone to enjoy at Trevigue.
