About this property

As we relax a little bit now over Covid 19 we have changed book in to 4pm and check out to 10am. As always we will message you as soon as the property is ready on your check in day.

'The Milking Parlour' was converted in 2008. It is just 2 miles from the popular harbour town of St Ives, but peacefully located high near the dramatic north Cornwall coast and ideal for exploring the rugged cliffs and country of this beautiful area. The property has slate floors throughout, with underfloor heating powered by geothermal energy from our own boreholes. In addition infrared panels have been fitted to the ceiling in the living room in case you need an extra burst of heat. Also, solar panels make the most of the sunlight to make this a very energy efficient property.
The property has two bedrooms, (one with king size bed, and en suite wet room; the second with twin beds,) family bathroom, kitchen/diner, and large living room with wood burning stove, and a 'hideaway' double bed.
Outside to one side of the property is an enclosed courtyard area, while on the other side there is a garden and large raised patio area with a panoramic view down to the sea - the ideal place to enjoy a barbecue and watch the sun set. there is parking for 3 or more cars.


Bookings: Usually Saturday to Saturday in the main part of the summer, but in early or late season shorter stays are possible. Check out the calendar to see what's available, or send us an enquiry, we are always happy to try and accommodate your holiday.

Not ideal sorry.
Nice cottage. The settees were very uncomfortable. Very low to the ground.Being partially disabled my husband drove 9 hrs to home and back on Christmas Day to get me a chair so I could be comfortable. Garden all open so not ideal.. listing states there is a hot tub which we never did find. There was a dvd player which was in the drawer but couldn’t be played.

Highly recommended
A fabulous pet friendly cottage in a peaceful location surrounded by fantastic countryside walks. Only a miles to St Ives and Penzance. Penzance Sainsbury’s is a short walk from a lovely beach and( for electric car users) you can charge for free. The locality has many historic sites, castles and numerous areas of outstanding natural beauty. Once you’ve been to the Milking parlour in Trowednack you’ll want to go again.

About the host

Hosted by Sarah O'Hora

Host profile image
Although we live in Devon, St Ives has held a place in our hearts since three of the family learnt to SCUBA dive there many years ago. The dive centres have since closed and our children have grown up but we still love the area. Our barn is in a small hamlet and we are blessed with amazing neighbours. It is always a balm to the soul to visit.

Why they chose this property

The Milking Parlour has an atmosphere all its own, and to visit is to take a step outside everyday life. It is of course comfortable and well equipped, but beyond that it provides a sanctuary.

What makes this property unique

Just step out the door and walk up to the top of the hill. In one direction is the North Cornwall coast, with absolutely nothing all the way across the ocean to America and look the other way to the South coast and St Michael's Mount. Fresh and clean, the Cornish air will blow away the cobwebs you didn't even know you had!
