Owned, loved and lived in by the family. Pencarrow is a Georgian house with Grade II* listed gardens.

Enjoy a guided tour with a difference and step back into the past with stories of the Molesworths past and present! We have a superb collection of portraits, furniture and porcelain.

You’ll find walks through 50 acres of beautiful formal and woodland gardens, a Victorian rockery, Italian garden, many different varieties of rhododendrons, a lake, Iron Age hill fort and icehouse.

Pencarrow has a café, gift shop, plants for sale and childrens playground. Dogs welcome in the gardens and can have a run off the lead in the woods. We also offer weddings.
