    Detailed description

    Trelissick House was erected in 1755 and in 1824 received a makeover with a grand facade that was specifically made to represent wealth and importance. Housing several families over its time, the interior changed with the families and fashions. It is said the interior remains pleasantly understated lending itself to a much more relaxed feeling than its grander exterior. With all of this history, it's not surprising that Trelissick House is a great place to visit.

    There are some nice displays within the house including some of the Copeland Spode China family collection. The rest was sold in an auction when the family finally vacated the house in 2012.

    Access is possible. Starting with the parking, there are disabled spaces in the car park, near the shop. Most of the ground is level and smooth, apart from some gravel when approaching the house. There are some steps to entering the house but there is also disabled access at the side of the house, upon request. There is plenty of friendly and helpful staff on hand when you need them. Disabled visitors get a 50% discount on entry and a carer goes free, making this an affordable day out.
