From coastal walks to days spent exploring hidden coves, here’s your guide to the very best things to do near your cottage stay in Cornwall.
At Trenance Farm Cottages, adventure meets relaxation on the Lizard Peninsula. Whether you’re here for the dramatic coastline, quaint Cornish villages, or simply to slow down and enjoy the sea air, there’s something for everyone just minutes from your doorstep. We’ve curated the best local experiences so you can spend less time planning and more time making memories.
By far one of the best things to do in Cornwall, and the best way to see the dramatic Lizard Peninsula coastline, is by walking the South West Coast Path, which you can pick up less than a mile from Trenance Farm Cottages. On Britain’s longest walking trail, you’ll discover hidden coves and golden shores and soak up uninterrupted seascapes.
Step away from the coastline, and there is plenty more to be discovered on the Lizard Peninsula. Known for its subtropical climate, one of the best things to do in Cornwall is to explore some of the many colourful gardens filled with rare and exotic plants – there are over 70 to choose from across Cornwall.
The Lizard Peninsula is renowned for its beaches. There are 24 to choose from, all with golden sand, incredible wildlife, and all kinds of watersport. Experience the Lizard Coast at its fullest, and see what all the fuss is about over Cornish beaches.
All of our cottages are equipped with kitchens, but with so many wonderful cafes and restaurants brimming with fresh seafood and local produce on our doorstep, we highly recommend heading out to experience some delicious Cornish dining.
The Lizard Peninsula has been titled An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty—and for good reason. Cornwall’s gardens are truly beautiful, showcasing unique lakes and acres of grounds that are all yours to explore. Leave the world behind and enjoy timeless family moments that you’ll never forget.
