Tregenna Castle Resort, St Ives - A Cornish Coastal Escape

Tregenna Castle Resort occupies a privileged position overlooking the stunning St Ives Bay, offering a unique blend of hotel accommodation and self-catering properties. It's a place steeped in romance and mystery, with tales of the land and sea passed down through generations, creating an atmosphere that invites lingering and discovery. Whether you seek a romantic retreat for two or an extended summer stay with the entire brood, Tregenna Castle offers a variety of options to suit your needs, from cosy cottages to family-friendly apartments.

Location

Perched on a hillside, Tregenna Castle Resort offers magnificent views across the countryside and out to St Ives Bay. It's a short distance from the charming town of St Ives, known for its art galleries and beaches, with landmarks like the Tate St Ives and Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden easily accessible within a 1-2 km radius. For those seeking coastal beauty, Kynance Cove, famed for its white sand and turquoise waters, is a must-visit, though it is approximately 45 minutes drive. The nearest airport is Newquay, about a 45-minute car journey away, and Penzance is 15 km distant.

Style and Character

The resort's character is a charming mix of historic castle architecture and modern comforts. The main building houses guest rooms, while the grounds are dotted with various self-catering options including lodges, coach houses, and apartments, many just a stone's throw from the castle itself. Throughout the main building, you'll find comfortable Chesterfields and wing-back chairs in a central corridor, offering a welcoming space to relax or connect to the free WiFi. The overall feel is one of relaxed Cornish charm, an ideal base for exploring the surrounding area or simply enjoying the estate.

Service and Facilities

Guests at Tregenna Castle Resort have full access to a range of facilities designed for relaxation and recreation. These include a heated indoor swimming pool and a seasonal outdoor heated pool (open late May to September). Golf enthusiasts will appreciate the 18-hole par-three President's Golf Course that surrounds the grounds, offering splendid views. For those seeking pampering, Castle Beauty offers a variety of treatments, from Thalgo facials to holistic therapies. Conference and event facilities are also available, catering for everything from team-building days to banquets.

Rooms

Accommodation at Tregenna Castle Resort is diverse, split across the main hotel building, the separate Plen an Dinas building for apartments, and smaller buildings housing the Driftwood and Samphire apartments. Hotel rooms offer en-suite bathrooms, TVs, and tea/coffee facilities, with some featuring sea views or balconies. The apartments provide more space and semi self-catering options, including open-plan lounge/dining areas and kitchenettes with ovens, microwaves, and fridges. Room types range from hotel rooms to two- and three-bedroom apartments, and cosy cottages, lodges, and coach houses, with many offering garden or inner courtyard views.

Food and Drink

The resort offers several dining options. Godrevy View Restaurant is the perfect place to sample the flavours that have long made Cornwall a foodie destination, offering creative small plates and cocktails by night, and relaxed family-friendly lunches by day. Olives Bar serves as a pit-stop for light dining and drinks, with a menu of small plates to accompany its cocktail and wine list in the evening. An Afternoon Tea at Tregenna Castle is a highlight, whether for a special occasion or simply a treat, featuring freshly made ciabattas, chef's sides, scones with clotted cream, jam, and delicious homemade cakes, often served with the cocktail of the day or a glass of sparkling wine.

Value for Money

Tregenna Castle Resort offers a range of accommodation types, from hotel rooms to extensive self-catering apartments and cottages, catering to various budgets. While specific pricing isn't detailed, the inclusion of extensive leisure facilities such as the golf course, pools, and on-site dining options suggests a comprehensive offering. The self-catering properties come with starter packs for kitchens, adding to the convenience. The value is particularly strong for families or groups looking for a combination of amenities and independent living.

Accessibility

The main hotel building is equipped with a lift, providing access to upper floors. However, some of the apartment buildings, such as Plen an Dinas, do not have a lift. Specific room details indicate some rooms are located over function rooms, which might be a consideration for some guests. For those with mobility concerns, it would be prudent to inquire directly about the accessibility of specific room types and buildings when booking.

Family-Friendly

Tregenna Castle Resort is an ideal destination for families. The availability of family-friendly apartments and cottages, some with multiple bedrooms, offers ample space for larger groups. The resort's facilities, including the swimming pools and golf course, provide entertainment for all ages. The dining options at Olives are particularly noted as family-friendly. For those seeking educational experiences nearby, PK Porthcurno, the Museum of Global Communications, and a family-friendly wildlife sanctuary are within reach, offering engaging activities for children.

“Tregenna Castle Resort offers a unique stay, blending historical charm with extensive grounds that invite exploration. While some rooms reflect the building's age, the overall experience, especially in upgraded accommodations, suggests where investment shines. Its location near St Ives harbour, combined with family-friendly amenities, makes it a worthy consideration for those who appreciate character and convenience.”
