A Newquay heritage attraction is getting all lit up for Christmas.

Trenance Cottages will be open on several evenings in the run up to the big day to allow locals to experience the historic site after dark.

Visitors can view the free-to-enter museum bathed in candlelight, get Christmas gift ideas in the two retail areas and enjoy tasty food and drink at The Garden Cafe.

The stunning lights will be on display around the cottage grounds and the 20-foot Christmas tree, again sponsored by Ralph & Co solicitors of Newquay, will be lit up.

A cottages spokesperson said: “Come and join us for evenings of treats, festivities and our beautiful lights. Both our cosy Christmas cafe and the retail areas, offering gifts and decorations, will be open.”

The cottages will be open between 6pm and 8pm on four Thursdays - November 28 and December 5, 12 and 19.
