Summer of Play at Trelissick

Play on repeat this summer at Trelissick, where there’s no end to the fun. We’ll be celebrating Summer of Play every day between 19 July and 2 September with games, activities and outdoor fun for the whole family. Get active and play tennis on the West Lawn, try lawn games or hold a race to the finish line. Who will be the champion? Embrace your creativity and make-believe in the stables where you’ll find a stage ready for you to dress up, put on a show and tell stories. Explore winding paths on the Trelissick garden trail, running throughout the summer holidays, and find the perfect spots for picnics and chill out spaces. Summer of Play activities are free (normal admission applies), so you can try them all and come back again and again. Dogs on short leads are permitted in the garden at Trelissick, keeping paws on paths. Summer of Play is supported by Pokémon.

Building Trelissick: from farmhouse to riverside estate

Following the popularity of the Honor Budden exhibition Building Trelissick will now start on the later date of 30 April.

More about Point

Cornwall, England

Point sits on the coast of Cornwall and doesn't need a packed calendar to feel like a proper place to be. The sea breeze keeps things breezy even when the sun decides to take a holiday behind those clouds we all know so well. With no specific venues listed, the town relies on its natural charm and community spirit to keep the week interesting. You might find a group of locals gathering for a walk along the shore or simply enjoying the quiet that comes with being this far from the traffic. Near Here makes sure you never miss a moment of local life, big or small.
