With views that stretch out across the St Ives Bay, our golf course is one of the most scenic in the country.

Lunch is served from 12.30 pm – 2 pm and costs £16.95 per head for adults and £7.50 for children aged 5 – 12.

Top 10 Tregenna is ‘Your Own Private Kingdom’ says Enjoy England

Tregenna Castle Hotel has been selected as a Top 10 Castle by Enjoy England in its latest Where to Stay Guide. The ivy clad hotel in St Ives finds itself in an enviable position alongside historical mansions such as Bovey Castle in Devon.

Enjoy England writes, “There are times at Tregenna Castle when you will think you are in your own private kingdom.”

This feeling is evoked by exploring the magnificent 72 acre estate, its sub tropical gardens and woodland walks. Far reaching sea views over St Ives Bay and the Cornish coastline complete the sense that this is a kingdom all of its own.
