Each room overlooks staggering views of a woodland valley and beyond this, far reaching hills and farmland – a spectacular position, very near to the South West Coastpath. 100 yards away and you are able to have lovely sea views.

There is a large, sloping garden
A huge patio area outside this large house has garden furniture & a barbecue

The stairs from the hallway lead up to the four bedrooms, one bathroom with bath and shower and a separate W.C. Two of the rooms (doubles) have en-suite shower and W.C. The other two rooms are twins.

There is full central heating for the cooler months and mornings/evenings.
Owls can be heard hooting at night, whilst Roe Deer and Badgers can be seen from the comfort of the house looking out onto neighbouring National Trust land.

Wonderful stay in Cornwall
We greatly enjoyed our stay at Woodgate. The house is really spacious and comfortable, with excellent views out every window. The kitchen is well equipped, and (unlike some places we've stayed) the washer and dryer are almost idiot-proof and just work. Very peaceful and quiet. Francis was a most friendly and helpful host, making sure that everything was in place. He had a lot of suggestions for things to do and places to see (and how to avoid crowded times). He somehow also managed to lay on perfect weather: bright sun, cloudless skies, yet cool, all of which were very much appreciated. It's a great place, and we would love to come back. Highly recommended!

Family break
Property was great, nice and clean and so secluded. Location is fantastic for the coastal path walks. Francis was a great host. Only thing to note for prepping your trip, no basic food products (which is completely fair enough but worth noting!)

Beautiful place
Our family loved staying in this beautiful house. The location is very good just few minutes drive to the nearest beach or a little bit longer but amazing walk through the stunning forest. The territory of the house is also beatiful. There is everything nessessary in the house. The master is very friendly and helpful. Thank you!

Lovely traditionally-styled house about a mile from Crackington Haven
Great location in terms of feeling like we were in the country. Coastal walk was accessible by walking either up the road 600m or down the road towards Crackington Haven. There is also a nice walk through the woods to Crackington Haven. Crackington Haven is a sweet village, with a couple of cafes opposite the beach, and a pub. The beach is pebbly at high tide, but sand at low tide. There is also a sheltered "swimming pool" where the pebbles dip down a little - this is good for younger children. The property had everything we needed - two living rooms, an eating room and a kitchen. The separate rooms made the house feel really spacious, allowing separation from family members if necessary (luckily we didn't need this!). There's a nice outside area too. Plus, the wifi worked extremely well when close to it (important as I had a work meeting!). Overall, a really nice stay!

A traditional farmhouse cottage in a beautiful location
The property has lots of quaint, old charm and the open fire was particularly lovely on the cold Cornwall nights. The house is in a stunning location with surround by rolling hills and walks across national trust land. Definitely a house that we would return to.
Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2020

About the host

Hosted by Francis Crocker

Host profile image
Francis has lived at Trevigue since the age of eight. After gaining an HND in “Rural Resources and Their Management” at Seale-Hayne Agricultural College in Devon, he studied for a degree in Rural Enterprise and Land Management” at Harper Adams Agricultural College in Shropshire.

Work has included spells with the National Trust both as an assistant Warden and in the Land Agency department. His main love and interest is the farm at Trevigue and the varied wildlife that lives there.

Today he is involved with the practical farming and land management that takes place on this unique farm.

Francis has been awarded the South West NFU certificates for conserving farmland biodiversity, in addition to the national award from the President of the NFU (Ben Gill) for his outstanding contribution to agriculture and wildlife.

onservation work has included cutting back on encroaching bracken and gorse creating conditions suitable for reintroducing the large blue butterfly and the black-plumed, orange-billed Cornish chough – often dubbed as the national symbol of Cornwall.

He has also re-introduced environmentally-friendly working practices on the farm to encourage dormice, badgers, deer and owls. Tourists can visit the wildlife information centre, which raises money to improve wildlife habits.

Trevigue was the first farm in country to become a venue for civil weddings.

Why they chose this property

This spacious, yet cosy house is less than half a mile from the coast and overlooks ancient woodland in a sheltered valley full of wildlife. Badgers, Roe Deer, Tawny Owls are just some of the a animals and birds to be seen/heard during a typical stay.
There is plenty of room to relax; two lawn areas, and two comfortable sitting rooms.

What makes this property unique

Having lived and grown up in Crackington Haven since the mid 1970's I am able to take guests on wildlife and natural history walks. I pride myself on my knowledge on the local area so am able to enhance guests experience whils staying in Woodgate.
