Volunteering
Trenance Cottages Newquay is always seeking new volunteers to join our team. If you have some time, enjoy meeting new people, and care about Newquay’s heritage, we’d love to hear from you.
We welcome volunteers of all ages and offer flexible opportunities for short-, medium-, and long-term commitments. By volunteering, you’ll help preserve the cottages while gaining valuable experience, enhancing your CV, and connecting with the local community.
We currently need volunteers for stewarding, assisting with weddings, special events, and gardening. We’re also open to new ideas, so please share how your skills could help us grow.

Trenance Cottages, Newquay
Registered Charity No. 1134308
Celebrating Our 10th Anniversary in 2025!
It has been ten years since we brought you these beautifully renovated Grade II Listed buildings.
Join us for:
- Summer Fayres
- Halloween Events
- Museum Visits
- Weddings
- Exhibitions
- Gift Shop
- Children’s Activities
- Lantern Parade
- Christmas Lights & Grotto
- And much more!
All these events are hugely enjoyable and made possible by our dedicated team of volunteers, who generously give their time for free.
Please help us preserve these historic buildings!
The maintenance costs of old properties like these are high, and your support is vital to our future.

Sponsorship
As a registered charity, we are always looking for the support of individuals, organisations and businesses to help keep the cottages alive. We have put together a range of sponsorship packages that we believe offer great value to our sponsors and enhances the work we are able to complete on site to preserve, protect, and improve the site for the future.
We have packages to suit individual sponsors and businesses, and the cost varies depending on the package selected. Starting from £100 (inclusive of VAT) all of our packages include online association and promotion, use of our event space, and the use of our logo in your own printed and online marketing material.
If you would like to support:
The Cottages – an iconic building steeped in history and situated in an iconic location;
The people of Trenance Cottages – an army of volunteers who run the site for the community;
The activities we undertake – from community events to educational school visits and curating / stewarding a heritage museum;
Or be associated with the publicity that promotes the charity, our heritage site and our people, please get in touch!

A huge thank you to everyone, and to all the organisations and businesses who already support us! Without your continued support we would not be able to share the unique culture of Trenance Cottages with the community and our visitors from further afield.
