“The Argal apartment situated at Treverva Farm is in a really good location to be able to explore Cornwall.”

Argal is modern and nicely decorated the bedrooms and bathroom are generous in size with extremely comfortable beds. The kitchen is well equipped with modern oven microwave induction hob fridge freezer and dishwasher. The kitchen does need additional crockery limited glass wear and only 4 bowls plates side plates and mugs but we managed. The stools at the breakfast bar are a bit too high beautiful to look at but not as practical or comfortable to use. The area is wonderfully quiet and peaceful lovely for the dogs with a great exercise area to stretch their legs first and last thing each day. If mobility is not a problem there’s a walk down the field to the Argal reservoir footpath a walk around the whole reservoir takes around an hour unless like us you stop and enjoy a coffee and cake at the cafe half way round. The Red Lion pub and New inn are close by both served delicious food probably best to book and Windjammer in Falmouth was also fabulous. We had a wonderful week and loved our stay Ian was on hand for any questions highly recommended.

“We had a great time @ Argal.”

The beds were super comfy as was the front room. Hot tub was great as was the games room. All facilities were good. Also, nice and warm in the accommodation. The dog running field was great. I would love to visit in the Summer and have a go on the tennis court. Good location for visiting Newquay, Mevagissey, Charlestown, Flushing etc.. Falmouth has lots of nice eateries and quirky shops. Verdant Brewery is a great spot to have a drink and pizza. The quarry for zip lining is 5 mins away which my boys enjoyed.

“This property is a simply amazing place to stay, very clean and tidy, fantastic facilities.”

You really couldnt ask for more. Fanastic location to visit Falmouth, Truro and other fabulous locations. Situated on a farm, the animals are all very friendly. This is also a dog friendly cottage. Lots of great eating places nearby.

Barbara June 2023

“Absolutely lovely, we had a beautiful holiday in Cornwall.”

The animals on the farm were lovely too, it was so quiet, but within a few miles, right in the heart of Falmouth with restaurants and lots to do. We would book again.

Luke June 2023

“We really liked our stay here.”

The place has a certain charm which we really enjoyed. Our daughter enjoyed going to see the animals kept on the farm and the property is set in an idyllic rolling landscape which serves as a great base to explore Cornwall. We visited Falmouth, St Mawes, and Trelissick Gardens during our short stay, all of which are within easy commuting distance by car. We were super impressed for the price we paid and would visit this property again. Argal Lake is just down the hill and we went walking around there too. The owners were on hand to answer our questions. The communal hot tub was easy to book and we had no issues getting a spot in it. There’s a rented stable on the property and our daughter enjoyed talking to the people who kept horses there, all of which were very accommodating and kind to our daughter (she’s four and asks many questions

“A really lovely place to stay in a great setting, close to some great beaches and Falmouth.”

Raymond December 2021

“We absolutely loved the location and the apartment, the owners are also lovely however the extra touches and finishing just weren’t there.”

Cobwebs, no hand soap or spare toilet rolls, not as clean and facilities were shut even though no additional covid measures were in place anywhere! It felt like they didn’t really want to look after the communal areas which were the main reason we booked this. Also I do think the hot tub fee should be included in the price. To pay £40 for us all on top of the booking price for just the hot tub, no robes as advertised and no changing facilities we thought was a bit too much. This place was great to stay at but it felt a bit rushed between Christmas and new year. Attention to detail and use of the facilities (or at least notice that they were closed) would make this 5 star!

- Raymond, December 2021
Thomas November 2021

“We had a wonderful stay this week at the holiday cottages!”

Marvellous accommodation, spacious, clean and plenty of room for parking too! Big thanks to Ian for being an outstanding host, super friendly and accommodating. We’re already missing it! Along with the Billie and Willie the goats!

The site on which the argal cottage is located is absolutely perfect and you will be more than happy with you decision to holiday there, and the location of the argal cottage we believe really perfect to travel from in order to see Cornwall ,

Tracy May 2021

“We had fabulous time here, Argal is in a beautiful area with access & views directly onto the Reservoir.”

Fabulous location for this area of Cornwall with easy access to other areas, the accommodation is clean, comfortable and welcoming. We took our dog and found the 'dog friendly' small paddock an extra benefit. The Games room too was an unexpected but great addition. All in all a great short break and if we are in the area again would definitely use again. Loved the resident Goats and Horse too.

- Tracy, May 2021
Anna April 2021

Hilary July 2020

“Argal was a perfect base for our holiday and we had a fabulous week there.”

We loved the furnishings and decor in Argal which we found to be comfortable, well-equipped, spacious and very homely too. It was great to be greeted by friendly goats and vocal Dexter cattle after a day walking the Cornish coastal paths, and what a bonus to have Argal Lake on the doorstep, providing a lovely Sunday morning stroll down through the fields. Treverva Farm is a great place to stay to explore the Helford area and the Lizard Peninsula, and we look forward to returning some day.

- Hilary, July 2020
Kjetil V October 2019

Janet August 2019

“Everything that you could ask for in a marvelous setting.”

Countryside and easy access to lovely beaches. The property was first class and the beds made it difficult to want to get up - until you saw what was outside your window. The property owners were very nice people who made us feel very welcome. We will return

S July 2019

“Treverva Farm is a beautiful location, with superb accommodation.”

The walk around Argal reservoir each morning with the dog was one of the high points of the holiday. The location is not far from any of the beaches, which makes Treverva an ideal launching point without too much driving. The farm was exceptionally dog friendly and has a safe exercise field in which to take your dog. All in all we had a fantastic week's stay and would recommend it to anyone. A big thanks to Ian and Michaela for making us so welcome.

- S, July 2019
Caroline June 2019

“From the minute we arrived, we knew we had picked the right cottage for our holiday.”

Ian, Michaela, Lewis and of course all the animals made us feel so welcome. The cottage is stunning and finished to the highest standard. You have everything you need for a fantastic holiday. The farm is amazing and I dare anyone not to fall in love with Willie and Billie the goats! Iggy our cocker spaniel, loved going to see them and the beautiful Dexter calves and running around with Marlowe, the resident springer. The bar on the farm complete with pool table is a really great touch and all the drinks are priced really well. The location is excellent and so easy to reach some amazing places in Cornwall. There are great dog walking areas and beaches within a few miles and all the local pubs offer amazing food. We will definitely be back!

- Caroline, June 2019

“Great place to enjoy Cornwall , very nice welcoming family with a great dog Marlow , can’t fault anything about this accommodation and location, will definitely return.”

Nice touch with the on site bar

Garfield May 2019

“The flat was well equipped and in a wonderful location.”

A car is needed but the centre of Falmouth is only a 10-minute drive. There is a great view of Argal lake which is accessed directly from the property. The hosts were really friendly and helpful. For our 7-year old there was a trampoline she could use and a great dog, Marlow, who she adored. It’s a quiet escape but close enough to many places of interest, so the best of both worlds. We would definitely recommend and are planning when we can go back again.

- Garfield, May 2019
Susan May 2019

“Lovely well furnished property with access to beautiful lake Argal.”

Very friendly hosts, nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely go again to any if the three properties at the site.

“We had a wonderful stay at Argal!”

The farm itself was beautiful and made the trip that bit more special thanks to Billie and Willie the goats and Marlowe the dog! We would love to come back! Thank you!

Sarah September 2018

“The holiday home was lovely and decorated to a high standard.”

We were met by Ian who was so welcoming and showed us around. We couldn't have asked for nicer accommodation. The beds were comfy and the bathroom was immaculate. There was a welcoming hamper when we arrived with bread, eggs, tea, coffee, sugar and some milk in the fridge. The cottage is on a farm so from the bedroom window you can see the horses which my 2 year old thought was amazing. There are really friendly goats, cows and two dogs, one of which (Marlow) was so fond of my daughter he would follow her around and they would play together in the grounds. The communal washing machine and dryer were a godsend. There is a really nice on site bar as well which we made use of. We would stay again, it was such a lovely place to stay and in an ideal location for travelling around Cornwall. Sarah, Mike & Rosie

Antje August 2018

“What a wonderful place.”

The owners are extremely friendly and will go out of their way to help if they can. It’s like home from home. The accommodation was just perfect for us (family of four) and the owners pets and farm animals added very much to our entertainment. We loved every minute of it and would highly recommend it.

- Antje, August 2018
Darren July 2018

“This is a gorgeous place to stay with a very friendly and helpful owner.”

The accommodation is of high standard and in a beautiful and quiet area for exploring Cornwall. It was lovely having horses, cows and goats so close to hand and to have access to Argal lake for local walks was a treat. Thoroughly recommend.

- Darren, July 2018
Linda July 2018

“Great setting for views and walking around the lake.”

Clean, well equipped and beautifully furnished apartment. Friendly, accommodating and hospitable owners. Private pub is a bonus - especially if staying as a group or if other friendly guests are in the other apartments. Conveniently located for fantastic local towns, beaches and scenery. Be prepared to drive for pubs/restaurants/shops - but worth it.

About the location

CONSTANTINE

Falmouth 7.1 miles; Truro 13.4 miles.

A charmingly picturesque country village with a few shops, a pub and a lovely church, set among green rolling meadows and wooded valleys leading down to the beautiful Helford river, just 3 miles away. Famous for its mild climate, this quieter part of Cornwall has the outstanding gardens of Trebah, Penjerrick, Glendurgan and Carwinion all within 4 miles. For nature lovers and those who enjoy boats, the misty reaches of the Helford river meander upstream to Gweek, where the world renowned Seal Sanctuary looks after the region’s many abandoned and injured seals. Falmouth, with its narrow streets, natural harbour and National Maritime Museum is just 20 minutes by car, while Flambards theme park (8 miles) and Argal Lake with its water sports attractions make great days out. The nearby beautiful Lizard Peninsula, with its outstanding beaches and quaint fishing villages dotting the rocky coastline, has the benefit of outstanding scenery, tranquillity and some great walks.
