From the Cornish, meaning 'Frog Pool', Polyphant is close to the convergence of the River Inny and Penpont Water and is surrounded by miles of stunning countryside. Cornwall is a very temperate region of the UK and the beaches are very popular for surfing and other water-sports.

As soon as we had unpacked and made a cup of tea, we felt at home. The information book written by the owners was very comprehensive and useful. The gardens, the house and the conservatory were all beautifully kept. A lovely place to stay.. Pat and Alan Waterman

The owners are friendly and helpful and supply a delicious cream tea upon arrival. This was our third stay at Trevosper Barn Cottages, that speaks for itself.
