Tregrehan House

Tregrehan is a country house near St. Blazey, Cornwall, designed by George Wightwick. It is described by Pevsner as "Late Georgian ... granite ... Ionic colonnade", [also] "a pretty little lodge".[1]

Tregrehan has been home of the Carlyon family since 1565. During the Middle Ages it was one of the residences of the Bodrugan family. The gardens are listed as nationally outstanding.
