Family-friendly vacation rentals in Truro

We had a lovely 2 night stay at Caroline’s place! We loved the freshly baked scones, clotted cream and jam on arrival. Check in was super easy as the key was just left in the door. Our little boy Myles loved watching the alpacas too! Overall very pleasant and refreshing stay I would recommend!

A beautiful glamping experience that exceeded our expectations. We had our three small children with us that absolutely loved it! They loved seeing the chilckens and ducks on site. Buttercup accommodation had everything we needed and we will definitely recommend it to others.

A lovely house in a fantastic location. Peter and Scarlet were extremely easy to deal with and very responsive. The house was clean and tidy with good amenities - especially the hot tub and the pool table. Well worth checking out.

Beautiful traditional Cornish cottage located within a very peaceful village but only 10mins drive from loads of beautiful beaches. Added benefit of a hot tub which unfortunately we didn’t get to use with a 2 year old in tow! Would highly recommend.

Absolutely beautiful cottage, inside & out. Internally the decor is all amazing and very thoughtfully designed and very luxurious. The location is perfect to explore all corners of Cornwall. Kate is a superb host who made us feel extra special with all the welcome treats. The hottub & sauna are a great way to relax after a long day of walking with our dogs. We had the best time here but it was all too short. We’ll certainly be back!

What a wonderful find. We met at Tygwella for a family holiday, some of us coming from Australia and some from Manchester. The house was ideal. It was spacious so we could occupy different “wings” with our own bathrooms and come together for meals, chat and play. The house was very generously supplied with basic provisions, kitchen and laundry equipment. We wanted for nothing. Having two ovens was great for cooking adult and children’s meals. The location was so peaceful with great views and easy access to the coast path and beach.

This has been our 4th Visit at Ali's huts. We love it here and can't recommend it enough. Ali is a great host who is always accommodating and helpful. the area is beautiful and tranquil. Totally relaxing getaway.

This place was such a great find! We’ve just got back from the most perfect week away. We originally only booked for 4 nights but we extended our stay as we were having such a wonderful time. The place is just lovely with everything you need for a relaxing stay. We loved our welcoming gifts too. Kate and Simon are brilliant hosts and were extremely easy to contact. St Agnes is a beautiful location with some superb coastal walks. There’s also plenty of places to go out for food and drink. The beach is stunning also. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone who is considering it (just book it!). Thanks again for a brilliant stay Kate and Simon!

This is the second time we’ve stayed at Thyme Cottage and would love to go back. It’s a beautiful location, so peaceful. We sat in the garden drinking our coffee and commented that all we could hear was the birds and the buzzing of bees. Just idyllic.

Loved our impromptu stay at the cottage!

Wow - what an amazing place to stay! This is probably the most memorable AirBnB I have stayed in so far. You are right on the edge of the seafront and by the harbour, with the double aspect living room enabling you to see both - the sea views are just stunning. Margaret was a really friendly and communicative host, and the parking space is good. I would heartily recommend this as a great place to stay; it is just so special being able to look out and see the sea from bed, and to hear the waves lapping at the shore as you go to sleep or make your cup of tea in the morning.

We had a wonderful stay in Porthtowan. The house was fully equipped for self catering, the beds were comfy and the garden was a good size with amazing views. It was a good base to travel around the area, would definitely recommend.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Julia and Lian’s beautiful cottage! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The cottage is full of character and charm, set in a stunning rural location that offered us the perfect escape from city life. The cottage itself was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully furnished with everything we needed. Julia and Lian were exceptional hosts—approachable, friendly, and always happy to help when we had questions or needed anything. Their kindness and hospitality made our stay even more memorable. A special highlight for our children was the presence of farm animals nearby—they were absolutely delighted and spent hours watching and interacting with them. It added such a fun and unique experience to our stay. We highly recommend this lovely cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with charm, comfort, and genuinely welcoming hosts. We would love to return! Thanks, Saurabh

Wonderful cottage , bigger and more beautiful than expected with 100s of small touches that set this place apart . Lovely host and a very special home . Thank you x

Loved my stay, such a cute cottage and quiet. Good location for exploring that end of Cornwall. Emily greeted me on arrival and provided bread and butter which was great. The outside space has been revamped and enjoyed sitting outside with my cup of tea. Would definitely stay again.

Had a lovely stay at Paul’s place together with our two children. The house is great - well decorated, modern and clean and a short walk away from central Newquay. Would definitely recommend to others.

The property matched the description provided, though the photographs give the impression of a larger space. Nevertheless, it perfectly met our requirements. Chris was exceptionally responsive to our inquiries, addressing various questions we had. The area was clean and filled with ample natural light. Our children thoroughly enjoyed the surrounding land for play, as well as the small game room stocked with toys, which was a welcome respite during a particularly rainy and windy day. The on-site washing machine was available for free use, and the washing line proved to be quite useful. Although the outdoor pool was not heated, it did not deter my children from taking a dip and having fun. I would certainly consider staying at this property again.

Tolle Unterkunft, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

We stayed for a weekend and it was perfect. A beautiful property in a very quiet and relaxing setting. Hosts provided all of the information we needed. We will certainly return for another visit in future!

Our stay with Stephen was great! Very clean and private space cabin. With a lovely outside area where we sat with some friends. Very quiet and peaceful. Stephen was great and really flexible RE: check-in timings and always had a very quick response to any queries I had before our stay. Would highly recommend.

As described, good central location within walking distance of the town. Well presented and good amenities.

We had an amazing time at the bay talland! Staff was super friendly and the house was more than what we hoped for! The hot tub, pool, plunge pool and sauna was all included in our stay and we loved using them! We would highly recommend staying here for a peaceful escape. Thanks so much.

We had a wonderful stay in the apartment. It was bright and spacious for our party of 4 adults and 2 young children. The pool was brilliant and really added to our stay. Having 2 rooms which were en suite and a third separate toilet/shower room was very convenient. We were sad to leave and would love to return in the future.

I would recommend Fistral cottage, it was larger than the pictures seemed to show, and it had character and charm. The kids loved having access to a pool and hottub, we were lucky enough to have these to ourselves mostly, but we picked a time where it wasn’t peak holiday or very busy. The cottage was in a great location for a short drive to beaches and restaurants. I recommend the Italian down the road, zucchini 😉
