Heated indoor swimming pool
Trevalgas provides a superb 40ft (or 12.3m) heated swimming pool, with male and female changing rooms and a hot shower. Open daily all year round.*
The pool is free to use. It has a constant depth of 4ft (or 1.27m) and is very popular with young families.
The pool is for the exclusive use of guests in the self-catering cottages at Trevalgas, so it’s hardly ever crowded. Indeed, many visitors have arrived as non-swimmers, and have left Trevalgas as competent swimmers!
Opening times for Swimming Pool:
The pool will normally be open at 8am to allow for a swim before breakfast, closing at 8.00pm (peak summer weeks), 7pm (early summer and September) and 6pm (for the remainder of the year).
With such long opening hours, you can enjoy a swim every day of your stay, and whenever it suits you.
*N.B. The pool is closed all day on New Year’s Day and Christmas Day

Outside play area
We have a large recreation field suitable for ball games. In the far corner, there is a children’s adventure playground including a Wendy House, climbing frame, and swings, including one for toddlers. For the younger children, we have springy animals to ride, and a large crawl through tractor, and a slide.
N.B. Dogs are not permitted in the recreation field, even on leads.
The access to the play area is from the car park side of the leisure building, though occupants of Bramblewood, Blackberry, Briar Patch and Linhay have direct entry from their gardens. Click here for more photos
Games room
The Games Room has table tennis and pool tables (40p per game). (The table tennis bats and balls are provided and stored in each of the holiday cottages.)
The cupboard in the Games Room contains plenty of books and board games for guests to borrow.
Laundry
Three automatic washing machines and a couple of laundry baskets along with three large capacity tumble dryers.
Note: there is a charge for using these machines.
All cottages have irons and ironing boards and their own clothes line.
Wi-Fi
We have for many years offered free Wireless Internet Access (Wi-Fi) in all cottages, which has been upgraded to fibre. There is excellent broadband reception over the site so you can use it in the cottages, in the gardens, the car park, or in the leisure building,
Food services
Our holiday cottages are self-catering, which means you are free to plan how to use your time and what and when to eat. There are plenty of restaurants, cafes, pubs, hotels, takeaways and snack bars in the local area, many of which pride themselves on the quality of their locally sourced food.
To help you enjoy your break, we offer a couple of food services which can be arranged in advance:-
- A supply of groceries to be delivered to your cottage in advance of your arrival
- Order some freshly cooked meals from a local caterer
Grocery Orders
The Lansdown Dairy in the centre of Bude will deliver an initial supply of groceries in advance of your arrival. The cottage will be stocked with fresh food in your fridge/freezer. All you have to do is pop in and pay during the week!
The ordering process couldn’t be easier. Use this link to the Lansdown Dairy website where you will see the Trevalgas logo. Selecting it will open an order form, with the option to send it in the post or as an email attachment. Their number, if you need to call them, is 01288 352556.
Freshly Cooked Meals
Our local catering service delivers fresh prepared quality food direct to your cottage. You might like to order a meal for your arrival or for the last night before you go home. Some guests use this service to celebrate a special occasion; others simply fancy a treat. You can even order some food to take back home with you!
Click here to see the menu (A4 PDF document) from local chef, Nicky Vereker, who works from her Cornwall base in Widemouth Bay. This includes full information on prices and how to place an order.
All food is freshly prepared and delivered to the cottage.
If you need to discuss your particular requirements with Nicky, call her on 01288 361530.
Emergency phone
Whilst we appreciate that most guests have mobile phones, there is an Red “Emergency only” phone in the swimming pool entrance area.
