We’re opening the Castle doors for our annual Charity Coffee Morning on Wednesday 30 September, raising money for Mustard Tree Cancer Support Centre Cancer Support Centre at Derriford Hospital.

The Mustard Tree offers free support to people affected by cancer, from patients to family members and carers ~ providing information, advice and someone to talk to when they need it.

So bring a friend, settle in with a coffee and a slice of cake (or two), have a wander through the gardens and enjoy a morning together at Pentillie.

Earlier this year, you helped us raise an incredible £20,083.64 for charity through our spring Garden Open Days, so we’d love to see you there to help us do a little more good.💛

📅 Wednesday 30 September
☕ 9.30am–12noon

And if you love to bake, we’d be delighted if you brought along a cake to share!

If colour-coding spreadsheets and organising timelines is your idea of a great time, we absolutely salute you.

But after months (sometimes years) of planning, you shouldn't have to spend your wedding day managing it.

Our wedding manager is there to keep an eye on timings, liaise with your chosen suppliers and quietly sort the little things that may crop up, leaving you to concentrate on the important things...

Enjoying a drink with your favourite people, eating the food you've been looking forward to, actually listening to the heartfelt speeches and getting on the dance floor, rather than wondering whether everything is happening as planned.

We're here to help bring your plans to life, then step in when you need us so you can enjoy every minute of your day.

So let us worry about the running of the day. You've got much better things to do.

What would you do with your own castle for the weekend?

It starts with everyone arriving, settling in and making the most of the afternoon together. Someone heads for the games room, someone pours a drink, and before you know it, you’re all sitting around one table for dinner.

You’ll probably stay up later than planned, catching up with loved ones and eventually, one by one, everyone disappears upstairs to their own exceptionally comfortable bed.

The next morning, there’s nowhere you need to be. Take your time. Swim in the pool, unwind in the sauna, brave a dip in the Tamar or wander the 55 acres at your own pace. Settle down for a long lunch on the terrace, or head out to explore a little further afield.

Then back to the Castle, where dinner becomes another round of stories, laughter and reminiscing about the memories you’ve just made together.

And when morning comes, there’s still no need to rush. Enjoy one last slow breakfast before heading home — or stay another night. There’s really no reason not to.

11 bedrooms. 55 acres. The River Tamar. And, for the weekend, it’s all yours.

Save this for the next time you’re looking for somewhere really special to get everyone together.

The company retreat everyone actually wants to go to.
Because the best team away days don’t really feel like work.

They’re the conversations over dinner, the ideas that come during a walk, the laughter between activities and the chance to spend time together away from the usual distractions.

A few days away from the usual routine gives your teams the space to reconnect, celebrate and come back feeling refreshed ~ with a few new ideas along the way.

Planning your next team retreat? We’d love to show you around.

A front-row seat to the universe, from Pentillie's Stone Circle✨

During the solar eclipse, Graham, one of our estate tenants, pointed his telescope skywards to capture the moon crossing the sun above Pentillie.

Over time he's also captured some pretty incredible views of the night sky from the estate, including...
🌔The eclipse on Wed 12 Aug 2026
🔭Sun Spots
🔭Orion Nebula
🔭Whirlpool galaxy
🔭Pinwheel galaxy
🔭Andromeda galaxies
🔭Bubble Nebula

Not a bad view from the estate. And a pretty good reminder to look up every now and then.

Thank you to Graham for sharing these amazing pictures with us!

A little eclipse magic with Sammie ✨

No fancy equipment needed, just 2 pieces of paper, a pin and somewhere sunny to stand — a simple way to bring the spectacle a little closer.

Where will you be watching from this evening? And don’t forget to look up again once the sun goes down for the Perseid meteor shower!

And of course, Tamu couldn’t resist making an appearance too… 🐾

All hands on deck...

From waving goodbye to our guests this morning to getting stuck in and turning the Castle around for our next arrivals ~ it’s been all systems go behind the scenes at Pentillie!

Our housekeeping, front of house and gardening teams have all been busy getting everything ready for this weekend’s wedding.

With rooms to reset, gardens to water and all the details to check, there’s always plenty of teamwork along the way to make sure our next guests arrive to a Castle that’s ready to welcome them.

Now, we just can’t wait for them to arrive!
