Winter House Stays at Trevassack Lake
Winter Breaks in Cornwall
Long-stay, accessible lakeside accommodation on the Lizard Peninsula in Cornwall
Trevassack Lake offers long-stay winter house accommodation on the Lizard Peninsula in South West Cornwall. Our lakeside houses are designed for accessible, longer winter stays for families, carers and guests who need space, routine and calm during the quieter months of the year.
A different way to stay in Cornwall in winter
Winter at Trevassack Lake is not about short breaks or busy itineraries.
Our winter house stays are created for guests who want to settle into one place, enjoy space and privacy, and experience Cornwall at a slower, quieter pace. Set beside a freshwater lake in a peaceful rural location near Helston, our houses provide a calm base for longer winter stays in Cornwall.
Unlike short-stay winter accommodation or cabin breaks, our houses are best suited to guests who need time, continuity and room to breathe.
Who winter house stays are designed for
Winter house stays at Trevassack Lake work best for guests who:
- Are looking for longer winter stays in Cornwall (typically 7 nights or more)
- Need wheelchair-accessible or step-free accommodation
- Are travelling with carers, support staff, extended family or dogs
- Prefer a quiet lakeside setting rather than a busy holiday park
- Want one move, one base and predictable routines through winter
If you’re looking for a short winter break or a spontaneous weekend away, our cabins are usually a better fit.
Accessible winter accommodation in Cornwall
Accessibility is central to our winter house stays.
Selected houses at Trevassack Lake are fully wheelchair-accessible and designed to support guests with a wide range of mobility needs. We offer a comprehensive selection of accessibility equipment free of charge, subject to availability, including:
- Profiling beds
- Hoists and transfer equipment
- Shower and commode chairs
- Riser recliner chairs
There is no additional charge for accessibility. Our aim is to make longer winter stays in Cornwall practical, comfortable and genuinely inclusive.
Why winter works differently at Trevassack
Winter is when Trevassack Lake becomes quieter, slower and more predictable.
Guests staying in our houses during winter often tell us they value:
- Fewer crowds and less noise
- Easier routines and reduced pressure
- Space for family, carers and visiting guests
- A sense of privacy and calm that’s harder to find in peak season
This is not a holiday you rush.
It’s a stay you properly settle into.

Typical winter stay lengths
Winter house stays are deliberately geared towards longer bookings.
Most winter house stays are:
- 7–14 nights
- 2–4 weeks
- Extended stays by arrangement
To protect availability for guests who need longer blocks, shorter stays are limited during the winter period.
If you are flexible on dates or length of stay, we are always happy to discuss options.
How guests use winter house stays
Every stay is different, but common reasons guests choose winter house stays include:
- Supported family breaks
- Respite or recovery periods
- Multi-generational family visits
- Calm environments for remote or flexible working
- Transitional periods between treatment, moves or life changes
You don’t need a special reason – if you need space, time and a calmer pace, winter is often the right season.
Pricing approach
Winter house pricing is designed to reward commitment rather than short stays.
- Longer stays offer better value per night
- We prioritise continuity over filling short gaps
- Extended stays may be priced individually where appropriate
For accurate pricing and availability, we recommend contacting us directly to discuss your needs.
