To celebrate 10 years of ownership, Trenance Cottages Newquay have launched two exciting competitions ahead of a celebration taking place on Sunday, 24th March 2019. Both competitions aim to capture the unique beauty of the cottages and their setting, with the winners being featured on a bespoke postcard for the cottages to sell in the shop.

​Drawing competition

For children under the age of 12 there is a free drawing competition. There are two categories, one for children aged 7 and under and another for those aged 8 to 11.

To enter, a child needs to draw an A4 picture of the cottages in either black and white or colour, and simply drop the drawing off along with their name, age and a suitable guardian’s contact information, to the heritage museum by 4 pm on the 17th March 2019.

The museum is staffed with volunteers on a Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 11 am – 4 pm. During this time, entries are welcome – just make sure you add the child’s name, age and your contact details to the picture, as you may very well have the winning entry!

Once the deadline has passed, the winner will be selected by a panel of judges and revealed at 2 pm on the 24th March as a part of a broader celebration to mark 10 years of ownership of Trenance Cottages Newquay.

The celebration is being held from 1 – 4 pm on the 24th March and includes family fun and games from days gone by including hoopla and shove ha’penny. Children can participate in all the games for a single charge of £1! All money raised on the day being reinvested into the preservation, protection and improvement of Trenance Cottages Newquay. Please note, the organisers have the right to disqualify any entry should they not meet the entry requirements or standards outlined above.

Photo competition
The second competition is open to Facebook and Instagram users. The competition requires users to capture a photo of the cottages that depict the unique beauty of the cottages and the setting.

To enter the competition, you need to have a Facebook or Instagram account, take your own photo of the cottages, go online and like the official Trenance Cottages page, upload your image, and then tag Trenance Cottages in the image along with the hashtag #trenancecottages.
