“Lovely few days staying in Dolphin Lodge.”

Everything we needed, good location and great space outside for the children to play. Will definitely come back again.

Scott July 2024

“We’ve stayed at Trewetha Farm 3 times, twice in stable cottage and once in Dolphin Lodge, lovely quiet place, close enough to walk to Port Isaac and Port Gaverne.”

Big field for kids to let off steam and we love feeding the goats too. We’ll certainly be back again!

“Myself and my wife have just returned home from a 3 night stay at dolphin lodge, ...”

Myself and my wife have just returned home from a 3 night stay at dolphin lodge, ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC, upon arrival the lodge was unlocked ready for us , the heating was on so was lovely and warm especially after a 9 hour journey, the lodge is so cosy, everything is so well thought out, very clean, once you put your clothes away that’s it , everything is there should you wish to cook, the views from the lodge is amazing, it’s a very short walk into Port Issac, i highly recommend TREWETHA FARM, we will certainly return and recommend anyone to stay there, I did speak to the owner and tell him what a fantastic lodge it is,hopefully you see this review, thank you so much for a absolutely fantastic 3 night stay, Philip & Isabel

Joy March 2024

“My dog and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dolphin Lodge :) The Lodge was very comfortable and spotlessly clean and with wonderful views over the fields and towards the sea.”

.... I would only make a couple of suggestions about the Lodge itself and they are; a shelf or two would be useful in the bathroom, and, a Smart TV is a definite requirement. I shall return for another visit though..... the area is great. Joy

Jeroen February 2024

“Very nice, sufficient facility.”

A bit poor equiped in kitchen tools such as pans(no big cooking pan), sharpness of the knives. We could have known there would be British sockets, but notice in advance would have been nice. Now the farm owner helped us out, which was very helpfull. Great location for walks. Great surroundings. Recomendable!

- Jeroen, February 2024

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and would love to welcome you back anytime in the future. All feedback can be viewed by the owners so thankyou for bringing the kitchen equipment to our attention. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner
Kathleen October 2023

“This lodge is just as described online.”

It has fabulous views over the fields to the sea, which can be viewed from the living area. The kitchen is well equipped and clean. The bathroom has an efficient shower but not much room to put anything down. For two of us it was perfectly spacious, but could be cramped for four, when the dryer has to go in the sitting room . I would recommend this for a family group staying in two or more lodges as it easy for children to visit grandparents staying next door. For an economical family holiday in October it was good value.

- Kathleen, October 2023

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are so pleased that you found the property comfortable and enjoyed the lovely views. Thank you for your comments and we look forward to hopefully welcoming you back in the future - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

“The most beautiful setting and really convenient for a walk in to Port Isaac.”

Not far from Tintagel and some other nice coves around to visit. The lodge is looking a bit tired in places but it was clean comfortable and lovely to sit and watch sunsets in the evening. It really made our holiday. Would definitely recommend.

- Carol, August 2023

Liz May 2023

“The location of the farm and the views from the lodge were absolutely world class, a sea view from your sofa!”

The farm was spacious and relaxing. My only negative comments would be about the maintenance of the property. It wasn't really a massive thing for us as we stayed 2 nights, but a week may have been different. The shower enclosure was had mould and the shower head sprayed out in all directions. We cooked breakfast one morning and the pans were very worn, and definitely not non stick anymore. Check out time of 9.30am is a bit harsh too, especially as you're asked to strip your own beds and dispose of your own rubbish. Like I said, the views and the location were fantastic, and the property was definitely clean and OK for a couple of nights, but in the words of my 12 year old daughter, could do with a glow up

It’s spacious clean and warm but the best feature is the stunning view over the sea from the big window . Thank you

Andrew March 2023

“Lovely lodge, awesome views out to sea, great walks from the door.”

The nice open setting with easy access to the village was was really good. The lodge itself was comfortable, and had everything we needed. However, it wasn't as clean as we would have expected on arrival, and we had to spend some time cleaning in the kitchen and bathroom, while not ideal, it didn't spoil our stay. Everything is is a little tired, although it doesn't really matter, it all works, but wear and tear is taking it's toll. The only other point would be rubbish and recycling. It would be good to have recycling facilities on site. The information suggested we could use the facilities at the village car park, but there weren't any (maybe it's seasonal?). But overall, despite our comments, a lovely place, and great value for money.

- Andrew, March 2023

Thank you so much for your feedback. It's great to hear that you had such a great stay at Dolphin Lodge and had the perfect base to explore the local area from and could soak in the views! Our apologies for the cleanliness. This has been reported back to our housekeeping team. Unfortunately Trewetha Farm does not have recycling facilities but there are centres throughout the local area that can be used if so desired. We would love to welcome you back anytime in the future. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner
Isobel October 2022

“The lodge has wonderful views and inside is clean and warm except for the bathroom which is in need of some tlc toilet flush was broken my husband fixed it shower had a lot of mould and mildew on the grouting and generally the bathroom felt uncared for.”

On a positive note the bedding was very clean and comfortable.

- Isobel, October 2022

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you had the chance to make the most of the local amenities! We appreciate you bringing the issues of the toilet flush and the shower to our attention. This will be investigated by our maintenance team, promptly. We hope to invite you back to North Cornwall very soon. Property Owner

Rob June 2022

“Lovely accommodation in a both rural and costal location.”

Very peaceful and quiet. The view from property was stunning. Open the main curtains and the view to the sea could be had from all rooms including lying in bed!. Take time to take the short walk to the end of the field to take in the views overlooking the bay. The owners were descreet but always available.

Be sure to pack your clubs and test your swing with a round of golf at the remarkable links course at St Enodoc Golf Club, or try your hand at coasteering or sea kayaking with expert tuition available on the waters of Port Isaac Bay.
