Pod
We loved Trecombe lakes. The pods are cosey and the owners have thought about absolutely everything you might need for a comfortable few days away. The sight is tranquil and feels like you are really in the middle of nature, and they clearly take a lot of time and care over making it look nice. Sitting around the fire on a clear starry night was perfect. The lakes are really pretty and worth taking an hour stroll around. The only thing I would suggest to make the stay more comfortable is an extra hour for checkout and some pepper :)

Pod
Trecombe lakes was the perfect mini-break location. The huts are cosy and cut and have everything you would need to disconnect. The evening fire pits keep you warm and due to the rural location the sky is amazing at night! We loved our 4 night stay with day trips to Sennen cove, lands end, Falmouth and st Ives! Will definitely be coming again!
We had a great long family weekend staying in one of the pods. The site is lovely and the pods well spaced out and private. The pods were roomy and well equipped - supplemented by the bbq and fire pit. The playground was enjoyed by our 9 year old and boating on the lake was fab! Location wise it is very well placed with Falmouth etc. Would highly recommend!

We had the most amazing time, the setting was magical, pods were clean and of a great standard.
Jason and Selena were wonderful hosts making sure we had all we needed. My daughter loved the lake and the playground. Meeting Pepper the dog was fabulous too. We can’t wait to come back x
Wow..... what a wonderful place to be. The children loved every space. Trecombe Lakes had everything we wanted and more besides. The children just loved the outside play area and the play room.... keeping them active everyday. The Lodge is a great location over looking the lake. A nice quite spot, not too sunny and able to chill. Everyone loved the Hot-Tub on the balcony, all you have to do is lay back & enjoy!
Jason & Selina are fantastic. They ensured everything was in place, all we had to do was bring the children and our own food.
Best place ever
Thank you Jason & Selina
It was a gift to my partner as he loves camping's. We have two small kids under 5's and I did not want to go into a tent or empty pod. I came a cross to Trecombe Lakes and I did not hesitate to book it. It was all equipped and I was so happy about it.
Kids were really excited, we stayed every evening to the very late enjoying our stay, having barbecues, playing around.
The only minus for this is pond, which was really not clean place to go, they should take care of it. And also playground is only for bigger kids and suitable to small once.
Other than that everything else was perfect, clean and tidy.
My partner was really amazed and we would be coming back in the summer time for sure :)
Lovely place to stay with small kids and not only.
Really recommend to other families.
I came across Trecombe Lakes after a lot of looking around online for accommodation near Helston, but I'm so glad I kept searching. I've been camping before, and to very civilised mobile homes in France with our 5 year old in previous years, but with a 5 month old now in tow my main concerns were cold/damp, and not being in a position to want to 'rough it'.As it happened, we arrived at 23.30 after a long drive from Lancashire to be greeted by driving rain and wildly gusting wind. The arrangement with the key being available in a small safe by the front door was excellent, and I and the two children were soon inside. We were greeted by a scandi-style cool interior; funky, warm and cosy (do all the pods have a duvet pattern to match their animal name?), and the 5 year old loved her first experience of a beanbag. Despite the weather, we didn't need the heater on at all, and we felt completely cocooned from the weather.We'd arranged a travel cot, but our baby daughter preferred to tuck in beside me under the very snuggly duvet; and who could blame her. If anything, we were too warm; I hope there's something lighter weight in the summer! We really appreciated the attention to detail, from the fridge, kettle , toaster, and even a heated towel rail in the bathroom to the complimentary tea and coffee and right down to a tea towel and washing up equipment. Not everywhere provides all this, and it was great.The next day my partner and older daughter did a bit of exploring around the lake and play area. It was a shame the conditions weren't fit to try out the boats, but she scrambled around on the adventure play area. This is definitely aimed more at older children, and I think pre-schoolers would struggle, so adding something for them e.g. smaller swings, ladder and slide would be a nice touch.From the point of view of a young family, especially travelling with a baby, I'd like to have had use of a microwave. Personally I've come to rely on one for sterilising bottles and warming baby food, and while there is cold water sterilising and you could use a pan of water to heat food, everything else at Trecombe is done to such a high standard it seems a shame to have to struggle. Also, as a contact lens wearer, please could the mirror in the bathroom be nearer the washbasin? Walking across the bathroom semi-blind while balancing a slippery contact lens on your finger is asking for trouble!Altogether, it was a fantastic experience and the only downside was that we just had 2 nights. We'll be back for a longer stay though - if we can get in, as this place deserves to be booked solid!
