Tredethy House - Description

Tredethy House is a beautiful, peaceful and informally elegant English Country House set in and area of outstanding beauty. Built in Tudor times and later extended, it has been the unique home of many British families and of Prince Chula of Thailand until the late sixties. A delightful and unique holiday spot today, Tredethy offers privacy and the blissful peace of the countryside whatever the season and is yet at easy reach of the North and South Coast as well as the many places of interest such as the Eden Project and the divine National Trust Houses and Gardens of Cornwall. The seven acres of grounds at Tredethy are themselves a piece of history, with many old trees and plants and some of the most beautiful Hydrangeas and Rhododendrons. March hosts hundreds of narcissus, April is time for the breathtaking display of bluebells, followed by wild garlic and blue and pink wildflowers. Autumn is a fantastic season, full of colour and peace, and lots of anticipation for the festive season we all look forward to every year. As soon as you step into the house, you will be surrounded by the home feel, the sense of privacy and tranquillity. No reception or other hotel formalities, you will be shown to your room and handed the keys of the front door. From that moment you can truly start to be at home at Tredethy, stroll around the gardens, let the children run around the front loan while you sit and relax outside or read a book in the downstairs lounges. At Tredethy we buy and use environmentally friendly products trying our best to cover all aspect of the house and garden, from household products to toiletries. From March 2008 the house will be powered with 100% green electricity and we are building our own borehole to be self sustainable with water . The house hosts eleven en-suite rooms. Five of them overlook the front gardens with the fantastic views of the Camel valley and woods beyond. Two of these rooms can be twins. Five other rooms are at the back, we call them Classic Doubles for their standard size. One family suite occupies the right back wing of the house and overlooks an open courtyard with view of the garden beyond. All are gracefully and individually decorated with well appointed bathrooms. We can accommodate one baby/child in our bigger rooms.
