Treveddoe exteriorTreveddoe is a stone farmhouse built on the site of an Elizabethan Manor. It looks south with uninterrupted views over its own farmland, on which sheep and South Devon cattle graze. The fields behind the house at the top of the farm lead onto Bodmin Moor. The moorland river Warleggan marks the southern boundary. There is a large garden and good walks through the 25 acres of ancient woodland. The bluebells, wood anemones and foxgloves are beautiful in the spring and early summer. Historic Treveddoe Mine (tin and copper), now almost hidden by nature, is nearby, with evidence of the old workings in the river valley.

The farm is a bird-watcher's paradise and ideal for those who want a break away from the bustle and noise of everyday life. It is a tranquil and unique base from which to enjoy the best of Cornwall. Both north and south coasts are within easy reach, as are many Cornish gardens. Treveddoe has provided great holidays for all ages. Children find the farm itself is exciting and intriguing, and the sea is not far away. The tranquility appeals to the parents, and the house is well laid out and easy to run. There is plenty of space downstairs. There are many places to visit not far away but sometimes of course it is lovely to do nothing but enjoy the spectacular views.
