Approached by its’ own drive, the House is less than a mile out of Penzance and at the top of Newlyn Coombe. The blue of the beautiful Mount’s Bay may be glimpsed at the end of the tree-lined valley. These qualities convey an impressive welcome to visitors and create a memorable setting for a wedding or event. Trereife House is a fine Queen Anne manor House in Cornwall and is home to the Le Grice family. As you walk towards the house you will see the tranquil sight of mares and foals grazing in the historic parkland. As you continue, the parterre garden, designed by Lyn Le Grice the renowned designer, comes into view. This together with the original "ha-ha" adds quality and symmetry to the fine frontage of the house from where you can see St. Michael's Mount. The house and grounds offer the perfect facilities for a wedding or any type of event. We have staged Opera, Jazz and Theatre events as well as food and design fairs. It has been used several times as a film location and Bonhams recently held an extremely successful private art exhibition in our art gallery.

Trereife has been the home of the Le Grice family since 1798. The site has been identified by the name from as early as 1201. The name originates from the Cornish for a farmstead in the original ownership or working of the original settler of the homested of Eruf.

Architecturally, this is one of the most interesting houses in Cornwall, being a fine and typical example of the houses in the
beginning of the 18th Century. The House is listed Grade II with the stables and adjoining walled gardens.
