Set in the magnificent grounds of Lanwithan Manor, surrounded by acres of extensive gardens and parkland with fantastic mature trees, rhododendrons, camelias and azaleas boasting beautiful colours throughout the year, including bluebell woods, and an old cider orchard. These two apartments form the south wing of the manor house and were originally the governess’s residence and the children’s nursery, now beautifully converted into spacious holiday homes.
The manor house was built in 1827 for the family which still resides there. Steeped in history, the apartments are named after a romantic couple from an old Cornish love story. Lanwithan Manor is in a peaceful, rural location, yet is just a 5-minute walk into the lovely little riverside town of Lostwithiel, well known as the antiques capital of Cornwall for its range of antique shops and art galleries. Close by are some wonderful places to visit including Restormel Castle and the beautiful National Trust house and gardens of Lanhydrock House.
Isolda’s is in the spacious, south facing wing of the Georgian manor house, with views from the living room across the magnificent gardens of Lanwithan. With sweet smelling roses climbing the exterior, a spacious living room and a lovely bedroom, both with period furniture, this is a fabulous rural escape for couples throughout the year. Level flat access from the car park area into the apartment makes it suitable for people of all ages and abilities.
Tristan’s is the first floor apartment in the south wing, and is perfect for either a couple or a small family. With a spacious, farmhouse style kitchen/dining room, two pretty bedrooms and a cosy living room, overlooking the grounds, across fields and down to the River Fowey in the valley below, Tristan’s makes an ideal choice for a relaxing break.
The friendly owners live in the manor house and guests are most welcome to wander the grounds and gardens and find secret hidden areas to explore. Sorry, these properties cannot accept dogs as there is a pet wallaby in the garden. Beach 7 miles. Shop and restaurant 1 mile, pub ½ mile.
These properties can be booked together to accommodate up to 6 guests.
Tristan's at Lanwithan Manor is an excellent base for a holiday, being within easy reach of both the north Cornwall coast and the south. The apartment is well equipped and comfortable and has lovely gardens to the rear. The owners were friendly and helpful and Lostwithiel itself is a pretty little town in which to spend time.
Excellent apartment. Spacious. Looks out onto beautiful gardens. A special place. Hosts very helpful and kind.
Absolutely wonderful cottage. Lovely owners and nothing was too much trouble for them. If anyone had cause for complaint they must be very hard to please. Cream tea waiting for us on arrival and lovely vase of flowers on the table. A very special touch. The gardens are a credit to them so beautiful, so quite and totally relaxing ...just what we wanted. Thank you Henry & Ruth
Lovely apartment fully equipped and sparkling clean. Owners were really helpful. Ideal location for visiting the local villages and attractions.
Had a great week at Tristrans, very spacious and comfortable flat, spotlessly clean, very well equipped and benefited from glorious views over a very beautiful garden. Our hosts were delightful and were on hand to answer any queries we might have had.The milk, scones etc. awaiting us on our arrival were also very thoughtful Lostwithiel is delightful, also great walking country as well as being close to many attractions and the coast(NT etc). We would definitely book again.
Our stay December, 2019
A very nice place to unwind. It's a shame we could only spend three nights there, as there were still lots of things nearby we would have liked to visit. Wouldn't hesitate to come back if staying in Cornwall again.
