Tregathenan House & Cottages 

Dog Friendly Accommodation in Helston, Cornwall

Hi! We’re Liz and Ian and we would love to share with you our little piece of heaven at Tregathenan near Helston

We have lived here since 2002 with our alpacas, ducks, geese, chickens, border collie and cats. It’s peaceful and quiet; it’s ‘away from it all, in the middle of it all’ – at the top of a private tree-lined drive, laden with spring flowers, surrounded by green fields.

Enjoy a memorable self-catering holiday at Tregathenan. Choose from one of our 3 granite cottages set in a pretty enclosed courtyard, or our lovingly restored period house with its own mature garden. 

The properties sleep from 4 to 6 guests. They are all individual, clean, comfortable, centrally heated throughout and really well-equipped, plus there’s plenty of private parking. You can visit our animals at any time and join us alpaca trekking on a Wednesday afternoon – free to our guests.

Tregathenan is perfectly positioned for exploring the many local attractions, beaches and countryside of SW Cornwall. There are some great walks and bike rides starting from just outside your front door. Bikes can be safely stored in our own cycle shed.

We are passionate about Cornwall, and about preserving its unique culture, heritage and environment. We encourage sustainable tourism and are proud of our GTBS Gold Award status. We have 2 Electric Vehicle charging points for our guests to use.

Tregathenan is dog friendly and dogs are welcome in the Granary, the Long Barn and in the Hayloft.

Alpacas
We have 9 male alpacas at Tregathenan. They graze happily in one of our 2 fields above and below the House and Cottages.  They range in age between 4 and 20! Some are huycaya alpacas and some are suri alpacas (the ones with the ‘dreadlocks’).

They have their main feed once/day in the late afternoon, and guests are welcome to come and watch the organised chaos which results from trying to get 9 boys to all eat nicely at the same time!

Dogs go free Feb, March and April!
