Hotel Description
Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much when I first pulled up to 1 Rock Cottages in Treknow – I mean, it’s tucked away on this narrow lane that you’d probably miss if you weren’t specifically looking for it. But you know what? That’s exactly what makes this place so brilliant. It sits right on the edge of the North Cornwall coast, and I’m talking literally minutes from some of the most dramatic cliff walks you’ll find anywhere along this stretch.
The cottages themselves are proper Cornish stone – none of that fake heritage nonsense you sometimes get. There’s this lovely worn quality to the stonework that tells you it’s been weathering Atlantic storms for decades, maybe longer. Inside though, everything’s been done up beautifully without losing that authentic cottage feel. The owners clearly get it – they’ve kept the low beams and thick walls (which, by the way, means you actually can’t hear your neighbors, unlike so many holiday lets these days) but added all the creature comforts you actually want. The kitchens are properly equipped too, not just the bare minimum, which matters when the nearest proper supermarket is back in Camelford.
What really got me was the location though. Treknow isn’t one of those touristy Cornish villages that gets absolutely rammed in summer – it’s still got that working village feel to it. You’re about a ten-minute walk down to the coast path, and once you’re on it, you can head either direction for some seriously good hiking. Port Isaac (yeah, where they filmed Doc Martin) is only about twenty minutes if you fancy a proper meal out, but honestly, most evenings I was happy just sitting outside the cottage with a drink, listening to the sea. You can actually hear the waves from here when the wind’s right, which is one of those details that makes all the difference. The whole area feels properly wild still – you’ll see buzzards circling overhead and if you’re lucky, seals bobbing about in the coves below. Parking’s no issue either, which anyone who’s tried to holiday in Cornwall will tell you is half the battle won right there.
