Farm cottage holidays in Cornwall offer fun, fresh air, nature and scope for joyful family memories. And whether you’ve got a babe in arms, a toddler in tow or an energetic young child, Tredethick has things pretty much covered!
We know your time is precious so here’s a hack: our suggested itineraries to save you research time.
Holiday prep and packing
We provide plenty of baby and toddler-friendly kit, so please check, it might save you some boot space! You can find the full inventory here.
Check the weather, but wellies are always a good bet for animal feeding or a yomp in the woods. Pack swimming kit for the indoor pool and hot tub garden. And don’t forget your beach kit: it could be rash vests and cossies or anoraks and waterproof trousers, depending on the time of year.
Book ahead:
You can find trip details in our digital guestbook which we’ll send to you before you arrive. Don’t forget to download the app onto your phone. It’s faster, easier to access, and available if you’re offline without reception.

Wednesday
Morning
Afternoon
Unless you are feeling totally energetic, we’d recommend you choose one of these iconic sites and come back another time to sample the other. Eat on-site at both venues (child-friendly fare available). Or Charlie’s or Short and Strong offer good cafe fare in Charlestown. Charlie’s is more family friendly but the coffee at Short and Strong is better!
Thursday

Afternoon
Take a trip to Polkerris beach and a sea view for your last evening meal at Sam’s on the Beach.
Or – if the weather is clement – grab delicious picnic bits from Bellamama (homemade Scotch eggs anyone?) and head to Lansallos for a family picnic.
Friday
Time to pack up for home.
Wishing you a fantastic family holiday.
