Tregenna Castle Estate in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Food is reasonable if a bit exspensive for what is offered. Hotel overall is fine for a 3 star establishment. The lopcation is great and views and facilities offered are good.

1pm booking for Sunday lunch in the restaurant. Starters arrived after an extremely long wait at 13-40pm. Delicious. Main course was plonked down on the table seconds after the starter plates were removed. Obviously been hanging around in the kitchen as everything was lukewarm. Beef overcooked. Not hot enough to enjoy. As I had complained about the delay for the starters...I didn't feel like complaining again. Left over half of my lunch as it was stone cold before I could finish it. All in all a poor experience as a local person entertaining guests. Somewhat embarrassing. Large party booked on..... maybe this was the problem. Can't say that I would rush back to tregenna in the future. Other places around offering better food and better service.

booked a table, had a phone call t say we late, they got the wrong time, so we rushed off, found the email booking for the time we said. Had the dogs in the back of our adapted vehicle for dogs, security guard came into our meal half way through and told us we can't have dogs on site, they didn't get out just in the aircon vehicle, to be far him and the manager didn't say we had to leave, but could have been done after our meal, just because another dog bit someone on the decking no dogs are allowed on site unless you buying a flat, so confused, dogs locked away in a vehicle or owners with dogs walking about but dogs are banned because one bit someone, has to be one or the other

We had the afternoon tea which was a fresh delicious array of savoury and sweet treats along with a miniature portion of fish and chip and a glass of Prosecco. Well worth a visit for a special treat.

Lovely setting and friendly staff. We had the Sunday roast. The beef was nice but the roast potatoes were very large and not crispy so it tasted like a baked potato. Had to ask for extra gravy as they give almost none. One of our Yorkshires had collapsed, it was like a flat pancake. And overall meal was not very warm. Also price of drinks expensive.

We were staying on a Travelzoo/winter deal and had £70 dining credit for the restaurant. The staff were friendly, welcoming and efficient. The restaurant is large and airy but doesn’t lend itself to creating atmosphere/ambience, particularly in the dark evenings without the view. The menu is very limited and not super imaginative. I guess burgers and pizzas are necessary to appeal to the cross section of people that stay and therefore eat here. The popcorn prawns were not exciting but my my Brie croquette special was quite good if not particularly exceptional. However, my catch of the day dish was really tasty (pollock) and all they need to do is offer a few more “fresh specials”. My fiancée had cod and chips which was also pretty good. At dinner and breakfast alike, all this restaurant has to do is offer a few more fresh dishes and use some more local produce (breakfast included) and it could be a lot better.

Sunday night supper at Godrevy View Brasserie is how we always start our holiday at Tregenna and it was again really good. Several of our family chose the roast, such generous portions with enormous Yorkshire puddings and numerous vegetables in huge quantities. My fish was also excellent, very tastily served. Three of us indulged in desserts... the sticky toffee puds with clotted cream are superb. The staff are very understanding of family groups (esp as we had a high chair baby with us) and the service is cheerful.

After our long journey we enjoyed supper in the Godrevy View restaurant at Tregenna. It has been revamped in the last couple of years and is now much less "canteeny" that the old Carvery in the Trelawney Room used to be. But the food is very good and reasonably priced. The chef has not lost their touch on creating enormous Yorkshire puddings for the roast for which half our family opted. The sea bass main was generous and very tasty, in fact we didn't have room for dessert which is a shame, the choices looked good

Very underwhelmed, a decidedly average to poor meal for an establishment that advertises quality. We had a family get together on Sunday and all the party chose the Sunday Roast. It was basically warm if not cold, the cauliflower cheese had very obviously been kept in a warm oven for at least an hour as the cheese sauce was set, not even remotely sauce like. The rest of the meal was average and missing what I consider essential trimmings, no crackling for the Roast Pork, soggy Roast Potatoes etc. Also the same thing for the desserts. Sorry, but a true disappointment. I appreciate serving a Roast Dinner over a long period of time isn't easy, but more care is needed if their products are to meet their claims of quality. I didn't say anything at the time so as not to spoil the occasion for the rest of the party.

Stayed in this castle hotel and everything was great. Service was good with great wine choice. Typical english menu which was very tasty

As a oxygen user I was a little apprehensive as to what to expect, as this was our first time away after being diagnosed last September.. we found the staff to always go above and beyond. When asking for anything out of the ordinary like extension leads, they made us feel very welcome. The leisure facilities were excellent, the food superb.

Couldn’t fault it! Top marks for the dinner service and the quality of the food - amazing. Thanks to the team, felt well looked after.

We both had a roast dinner which was pretty good. The beef in my opinion could of been rarer the cauliflower cheese needed sauce and the roast potatoes needed to be crispier, the rest of the vegetables were all tasty and the gravy was delicious. Good service and friendly staff. Bar and restaurant both seem a bit more like a cafe than a warm and welcoming place where you want to spend time and enjoy your drink and food.

Lovely Sunday lunch. Turkey, beef or nut roast options. Turkey was lovely and happy to accommodate requests. Lovely staff.

Decent without being spectacular. A pleasant meal with family. The restaurant is in a spectacular location overlooking St Ives Bay. The menu was on the functional side - I chose mussels as a starter, as had my brother, but he forsook his, as we were told there was really only enough for one. To be fair they did offer to do a compromise dish using mussels and prawns, but my brother graciously offered to have the prawn starter instead. I definitely got the better of that arrangement - the mussels were absolutely delicious, and there were plenty of them. The prawns were adequate, but not in the same league as the mussels. Another of the party has soup which was well received. For the main I had the fish of the day, Lemon Sole…served with new potatoes. The fish was fresh, I had three small sole, but I felt they were a tad over. Still, all in all it was pleasant, and with accompanying wine came to just over £50 per head. Would I go there again? Yes, I would, but maybe when it’s a little quieter. The hotel was very busy with guests, as it’s a prime location for weddings.

Very good, generous portions! I have been coming here for 25 years now, it's my favourite hotel and the food is always good, not the very best but absolutely lovely and the service is excellent.

Attentive courteous staff but food, especially afternoon tea a big let down Booked ages ago for Mum’s 90th birthday tea was given wrong menu over email so what we picked was not available The £25 is a very hefty price for the afternoon tea which we were told would be substantial but it was not unfortunately the cakes which were supposed to be fresh cooked were dry and stale along with the baguette or panini bread for the tuna sandwich which I complained about and the lady waitress kindly did bring a desert but unfortunately the cheesecake was awful and tasted disgusting but the mini fish and chips was nice the choice of sandwiches were not as advertised and the others who had panini’s had stale ones too Being local I’ve been to Tregenna loads and loads over the years but the quality of this Brasserie food was very sub standard and disappointing

As always this Hotel and "ALL" it's facilities are second to none. Excellent service, great food and drink.

Really nice to have dinner. Choice was good and well presented. Just disappointed that some staff didnt have face masks.

the website give the impression that it will be a nice dining experience. It wasn't all that good for us The fish starter was overpriced and didn't taste all that great. The burger was average and again overpriced. I realise that the hospitality industry has had a difficult time, however, this place needs to up its game for the prices that they charge. I would not eat there again. The staff are really nice and efficient

Absolutely delicious Sunday roast, lovely piece of pork with all the trimmings, leek and potato soup to start and a fab lemon tart for desert Fantastic service we were so well looked after thank you Brilliant three course at a very reasonable price Great venue...

We had the afternoon tea , and as it was near to Christmas it had the festive touch. All I can say is 'wow', we felt very spoilt. The quality and quantity of food was amazing. Nice little extra touch with the delicious mini fish...

Fresh ingredients, cooked to perfection. Fish, prawns and squid were wonderful. First class service. The quality of the food served made our holiday.

Over salted Calamari and Fish and Chips. menu very boring and nothing special. Staff are friendly but you need to grab their attention.

The grounds & castle are spectacular ! The gate house man was polite & informative , Reception staff were brilliant on check in , Check in at 5pm , check out 10am , so you loose lots of time over a 24hr period doing this, none of which was made apparent when booking , but not a major issue for us , but could be if you wanted to get in your room & rest , However you can park on the grounds & it’s a short walk into the lovely st ives beach, shops, bars, restaurants, cafes etc.. We booked a self catering apartment room for 1 night , sleeps 4 with a pull out sofa bed , clean & comfortable, tv is dated & small , nice balcony overlooking the golf course , 2 in this room which was good. It wasn’t cheap to stay here in August & st ives has cheaper places , The wow factor that you expect with the price was not a match . Not far off but not a match !

A very nice menu with a reasonable choice of food and a reasonable cost as well. A nice atmsophere and very friendly staff.

Came with the Winter Break. Lovely scones, clotted cream and strawberry jam. All served with a pot of tea and smiles.

To be honest although we have stayed at the hotel before, this was our first time we actually used the brasserie. Part of the hotel break was some vouchers for free drinks and cream tea for two. As we originally checked in the receptionist told us although the voucher stated drinks available between 4 and 6 in evening in practice you can take them at anytime. Well we had the cream tea deal in the afternoon, which very nice and duty staff were exemplary so we booked for dinner that night at 7:30.Come the night, we arrived for dinner and presented our drinks voucher and ordered a vodka and tonic plus a pint of guiness. Minutes later the manager approached staying that voucher could only be used between 4 and 6 in evening. I explained what receptionist had previously stated and also said if it was a problem, don't worry about 'free drinks'. Shortly after he returned with 2 drinks that were allegedly cocktails saying the offer was for 2 cocktails or 2 soft drinks, which incidentally wasn't mentioned on voucher. We graciously declined these as it wasn't what we wanted.Anyway, the meal eventually arrived, I had the baked salmon and my wife had the mushroom risotto. We did enjoy the food but unfortunately my wife was literally up all night with a very bad case of stomach upset. If we also take into account the look on the managers face every time he passed our table, well I don't think we will be repeating the brasserie experience. Shame really, as the rest of our stay was great.

Just spent another two days at Tregenna,although we only live hour away it’s feels like we are on holiday,we love it here,the staff are so friendly and welcoming, the rooms are spotless,we always eat here as the food is so good, so thankyou again for a lovely day,hopefully see you end of the year, my daughters 40th she wants to spend the weekend with you.

A really nice break and lunch outSituated above St.Ives with great views over the town and harbourNicely decorated restaurant with good choice on the menu and a fixed price lunch for two courses at £14.95Went for bread and olive oil for starter, really nice fresh bread. Then fish and chips for main, excellent, great prices of fishVery polite efficient service

Tregenna Castle was fantastic and amazing place and views and the walk around the grounds fantastic we enjoyed it and was very good price its worth the visit

Evening meal - good service and food. Staff attentive and polite. Cream Tea - wasn’t the best I’ve had but nice, it came as an offer on a voucher but I think if I’d paid for it I would have been disappointed. Bar drinks were pricey.

Average surroundings and fairly disorganised but keen prices make this a last resort venue for food and drink

A little disappointed with Sunday lunch options, only Roast beef or Risotto.We opted for a reasonably priced two course lunch.The starters were very nice.My only complaint was that the vegetables with the steak and ale pie were not al dente, they were raw with the skins left on the carrots and the inedible parsnips.The chowder tasted nice but it smelt a bit funky.The service was friendly but far from professional, very much like a supermarket cafe or a canteen, piling up dirty plates on the bar.

Visited here to meet friends for afternoon tea. some of the areas seemed closed like the bar area which we found odd.We ordered some afternoon tea and frankly i was disappointed. Not only was the price expensive for everything. The scones they served me had raisins in them. There was no mention of this when we ordered. Not only that, they tasted and felt cheap, so much so i've had better buying cheap supermarket ones. What a serious let down.Staff wise, reception were pleasant when we spoke to them, but the person who served our food and drinks gave the impression we were just an inconvenience to him. no pleasantries at all from him when we got served.

Visited here on the first night of our stay here and we haven't eaten in this restaurant since. Took nearly 20 minutes to have our drinks order taken, not even that busy. Once we did get our drinks and food order taken the food came out very quickly. However I had ordered the thai chicken noodles and was brought a lasagna. Not even close to what I had asked for. However they did bring the correct order after I mentioned it. Partner had a chicken caesar salad which was certainly not worth £12.95! People just turn up in shorts, ripped jeans despite it saying in the guest handbook that smart clothing only. Luckily we have found some excellent restaurants in the area which which have our custom whilst we are here for the remainder of our holiday.

Staying at the hotel we made use of the brasserie and we were not disappointed , choice of food was good and the service was very efficient

We ate here on our first night with friends. Convenient after long drives. Food is conventional and not bad. This is not fine dining. No table clothes and a quite cramped setting for such a large hotel. I had roast pork with all the trimmings. It was quite nice but elements tasted as if they were prepared long ago and heated up or kept warm But you are not paying the money you have to pay down in the town and it is very convenient. Oh and yes the staff were very good - helpful and friendly. It loks as if you can eat out in better weather and from outsie the views are great.

We all enjoyed our meal here, a bit expensive but so is everywhere else in St. Ives! The service is good and the food is excellent, the surroundings are second to none.

Lovely staff, food, wine and setting. The whole meal was top notch and everyone had a brilliant evening.

We have eaten here for a few years now on holiday and over the past few yrs standards have slipped. Sorry tregenna.The staff are lovely and work hard but... we stopped eating breakfast yrs ago in the restaurant as tablecloths disappeared & it became like a canteen rather than a treat and this year my meal in the Brasserie was shocking. I don’t expect to be served Aldi type steak and frozen chips when I eat out. Over £20 and frozen chips? Not even decent frozen chips! Steak was edible (just , I was starving), peppercorn sauce ok. Pointed this out to the waitress and she giggled! Husbands and kids meals were ok- not great but passable. Either the chef needs to order better quality ingredients again or he should take the meal off the

3 star hotel charging 4 star prices the meal was good but it’s certainly not exceptional particularly when they’re really charging you for the setting not the quality

After our long drive down to St Ives we always treat ourselves to supper in the Brasserie and this time we were all buzzing with the excitement of England having won the Cricket World Cup!

Average - convenient as we were staying at the hotel, but we didn't eat there a second time - lunch looked better

I ordered the wild mushroom risotto but as I am coeliac I requested for GF but upon arrival was completely different to the same meal another family member (not GF) ordered. On the menu the risotto had GF next to it which meant gluten free on request so thought oh yes I’ll get that but I did not get what I expected. My dad is a chef and I know that nothing in a risotto would contain gluten or wheat therefore was very confused as to why I got a completely different dish to the normal risotto, unless it had bread on the side which it did not. The normal risotto was incredible according to my family member.

Booked table for 6 Adults and requested a nice table as it was for a 60th Birthday. I was not dissapointed as it was a very nice table and was covered in birthday sprinkles on the table which was a really nice touch. The staff where attentive and gave great service. There ws a good choice of food which was all excellent and reasonably price. I would return here again and recommend.

The range, quality and portion size of the food served here is good. We enjoyed quite a range from the menu with the paella being top rated. The only problem is the prices which since I wrote my last review in Nov 17, have really increased which will make London feel quite at home with, but really are 30%-50% more than the local St Ives restaurants. for example, £18 for a pizza here but its really £12 in town and on a per head basis, this is only worth one stop in the week.

Perfectly situated on the hill outside St.Ives...you get the view without the crowds.

We ate here during our stay and didn’t once have a bad meal. The food was always hot, well presented and plenty of it too! Reasonably priced also. Worth a visit.

The Brasserie had just been redecorated when we ate there so there was still a smell of paint.This was our choice and did not detract from the visit. The quality of the food provided was excellent as was the friendliness of the staff.This was a very nice way to end the day.

The restaurant and indeed the whole establishment was busy. However, the .real was a nice relaxed affair. Choice of menu and or staycation deals were Interesting. Choice of drinks was also sufficient to keep most people occupied. My only gripe is a personal one. The wine prices...since the advent of two German based grocery stores all over the country, I object to paying more for a glass of wine than the bottle is patently worth. However, most other drinks were priced within acceptable realms.

Good value food and drink for an English hotel, menu choice is reasonable if not great. Staff and service (throughout the hotel) is excellent. Given the views and castle grounds this should be much better - its a missed opportunity for a really great restaurant on the hilltop.

Good choice on the menu. Food was well presented and tasted good. Staff were extremely helpful, fast and efficient. As I was staying at the hotel, it made the whole evening relaxed

Was staying at this hotel. So we tried the in-house brasserie. It's good! Staff were friendly though, I think, overworked. The menu included everything you'd expect from a harbour town and it was cooked to perfection - that is the see bass, scallops, mussels and pork belly. The wine list was short (thank god!) reasonably priced and top notch. I'd recommend it advertises to non-residents a bit more!

This is a definite improvement on the time-warp main dining room, the ambience is certainly much better and the menus seem to overlap giving plenty of choice at reasonable prices. My sea bass was very tasty and all our family members rated the food they were served, including the roast dinners

An excellent menu, attentive and friendly staff and I thought the food was competitively priced and delicious. The background music was just right too- not too loud and there was no modern thumping beat.

Stayed at the hotel for 3 nights and on the last night dined in the brasserie. Opted for the all inclusive Sunday menu. Had the fish goujons to start which were lovely, though only 2 served each. Had the roast beef dinner whcih was lovely, partner had the roast pork dinner as it promised all the trimmings, sadly there was no crackling which is what he had thought there would be. Drinks a little on the expensive side, but indicative of st ives as a whole really.

The Hotel bistro has a very good food choice at reasonable prices with excellent service and friendly staff

Excellent meal and the staff were lovely. We had a 3 course meal that was excellent. The wine list was good. Service was of a high standard.

The Brasserie at Tregenna Castle was a good place to be on a mid December night when it was wet! The food was excellent and the service matched it. Particularly good was the Sea Bass that my wife had. The staff weren't over-attentive but there when you wanted them.

We stayed at Tregenna Castle and had a lovely meal in the Brasserie also the staff were very good and helpful

The menu has a variety of dishes to suit many tastes. We ate here a couple of nights. Both evenings it was Good tasty food and the portions were big. Can’t complain the service was excellent, would visit again.

2 closed mussels in my starter made me wary of the cooking. Steak and peppercorn sauce was delicious.

We stayed at this hotel for three nights and ended up eating here each night as we enjoyed the food so much. It is a busy restaurant so booking a table is necessary. All the food was nicely presented, tasty and cooked to perfection. Service was excellent and although the staff were very busy they still had time for a friendly few words. Well done to all!

We had a couple of dinners at thisb brsserie during our recent stay at the Tregenna Castle hotel.

A bit like eating in a pub with bare tabler and paper napkins. Food however was good and well prepared and served. Service was good

Had a roast dinner veg was ok meat (beef) was like boil in the bag . Yorkshire pud microwaved sticky toffee pud was ok such a nice place to stay drinks expensive taxi to town £8 it’s a long walk

Arrived at this beautiful hotel to a reception host who was excellent.She dealt with many guests so politely and in such a professional manner.Lovely place to stay

I always have the Hake which is delicious, but the Menu is always varied, the ingredients are fresh and local, the staff are always friendly and efficient.

Chose Tregenna for Sunday lunch as it has easy access for a member of our party with mobility difficulties. We enjoyed a three course Sunday lunch, the portion sizes were very generous as well as delicious. The three courses were £18.95 and I think represented excellent value for money. Service was good and the staff very attentive. We will definitely return.

Used this restaurant once during stay at hotel. Food was good and the service excellent. Staff friendly and helpful.

Nice menu choices, well-prepared and well-priced. Fair wine list. Saves a long walk or a drive into town.

We checked into the hotel last night (Sunday, 23 September) and being unfamiliar with the local area and tired from our travels, we decided to have dinner in the Brasserie on our first night. We were very glad that we did as the food and service were excellent. I had the roast beef which was delicious and plentiful, particularly liked the accompanying vegetables. The lemon drizzle cake pudding with ice cream was light and tasty followed by a substantial cheese platter - enough for the 2 of us to share - and great coffees. The food service was prompt and efficient and the manager was particularly helpful. The only one tiny criticism was the music choice, I don’t think guests are quite ready for “White Christmas” but it made us giggle. May be advisable to book on a Sunday as the restaurant was full when we arrived at 8pm. Overall, a very enjoyable meal and we may return tonight as it was so good.

On the first night of our annual holiday we always dine at the hotel & the Brasserie is perfect for this, where it;s possible to choose from the carvery (roast) menu or the regular one. Between our table we chose from both, plenty of options. My sea bass with spinach was delicious, the perfect light bite I wanted. I think the server was new as she was confused by the menu descriptions & several dishes came incomplete, quickly rectified by the maitre d'. other than that, it was a lovely evening

The setting was lovely and the staff attentive. I ordered the fillet steak as a treat and the steak itself was well cooked and very nice. However, for the price I would have hoped for, or expected at least hand cut chips cooked in beef dripping and some veg.

Lovely setting and very nice and good value afternoon tea and croquet. The brassiere itself is quite small and the terrace isn’t huge either but the views are spectacular and the grounds exceptional.

We came for a lovely 2 course lunch and it was all very nice food, the portions were a fab size and one waiter in particular was really happy and lit up everyones faces.

After driving round the grounds to the castle we decided to book a table at the brasserie, wasn’t disappointed, easy to book online and received a confirmation email straight away. Arrived a couple of minutes early but wasn’t a problem, very polite and friendly waiter couldn’t do enough for us. One had special dietary requirements but the waiter spoke with the chef to accommodate this without any problem - gorgeous food and arrived quickly. Good sized portions, didn’t disappoint. For 4 main meals and 4 drinks bill came to around £80, not bad. We were offered water upon arrival for the table and was replaced automatically without asking. Would definitely recommend visiting if you’re in st ives, especially for the astounding views from the grounds!

This food should be the best. With this castle around and the spectacular garden. But no. The food was late on the table and it was below average on taste. The dessert was a disaster! The crumble pie was with jam and a crushed cracker on top. Money out the window!

a busy but friendly brasserie offering a varied selection of dishes of varying styles. portions are large and very satisfying . booking is recommended to ensure you do get a table. table service is excellent and the staff are knowledgeable about the menu.

Stayed here twice on value breaks always a friendly welcome the hotel is a bit dated but for the money and where it is it is great value .

We stayed 2 nights at the hotel and ate in the brasserie the first night. The menu was unadventurous. The food was pleasant enough but not special Service was good We decided not to eat here the next night

Lovely setting, locally sourced food. Martin our waiter was able answer all questions re the food and drinks.

Considering the information given in the room suggested a dress code...the menu at the restaurant was disappointing. Pizza, burgers, very expensive for what it was. I had the chicken Caesar salad and it was drowning in dressing, my husband had the 10 oz rib eye and got 2 5 oz thin pieces like schnitzel but said it was tasty. Paper napkins and ceramic dishes at a castle was disappointing.

Stayed for two nights in February. Rooms on lower ground floor, no view but very clean and comfortable. Full cooked breakfast each morning and ate in the brasserie each evening. Food was excellent. The hotel grounds are beautiful with a walk through a tropical garden to the sea shore. Highly recommend this hotel.

Top notch place. Beautiful decor, beautiful views. Exceptionally polite and helpful staff - very very impressed with this. Really appealing menu choices and lovely food.

Called in as our first choice was not brill so checked in and as we waited for our room to be made in to a twin room had some food and to say the food was good would let it down as it was out of this world amazing. Service from all the staff here from the Alex and his lady colleague on reception to the team in the restaurant/lounge bar would recommend this hotel in st Ives

Excellent location shaped like a castle and would be a beautiful venue for a wedding. Short walk to the centre of St Ives but quite steep for people who are not steady on their feet. I am 62 but was fine with it. There is an excellent bus service into st Ives every 20 minutes. Interior was good although the room we and our friends stayed in were a little tired. Would recommend this hotel to everyone. Staff extremely friendly and reception full of information about the area.

WE dined here 50 years ago and the recent experience was a vivid contrast. The meal was OK but the presentation was average and my Indonesian dish was overwhelmed with sauce and was no better that one could run up at home. Good value though, and a varied wine list at reasonable prices. Friendly staff who coped well with a busy place. Not a "destination" restaurant but pleasant enough and not to be avoided.
