About

An intimate Elizabethan manor and a Cornish gem, Trerice remains little changed by the advances in building fashions over the centuries, thanks to long periods under absentee owners.

An Elizabethan manor on a Cornish scale, the house at Trerice has many fascinating nooks and crannies, as well as a superb collection. From wooden skittles to an enormous table and a 300 year old longcase clock, the collection on show at Trerice is of interest to visitors of all ages.

From the formal Elizabethan knot garden inspired by grand plaster ceilings to the wild meadow and wilderness in the mowhay where wildlife thrive, the garden at Trerice is small but varied. 

Today the renowned stillness and tranquillity of Trerice is much prized by visitors.
