Arrival by car and parking

Access to Trelissick is via standard entrance and the car park is open from dawn to dusk. In order to ensure the continued safety of our visitors, staff and volunteers the booking system is in place for visiting Trelissick between 10am and 4pm.

Once you reach the car park a member of team will greet you from a distance. Please have your ticket ready and state the name used to book. They will then direct you to available spaces for you to park in. 

In order to maintain social distancing, please arrive within your timeslot. Sadly, if you're more than 10 minutes late, we may not be able to guarantee you entry. Your entry will be at the discretion of the property staff and will be based on visitor numbers and the ability to maintain social distancing.

Campervans that are used for transport are welcome but are not permitted to stay overnight. At this time we’re unable to welcome caravans and coaches.

Staying safe

To help keep everyone safe, please follow social distancing and government guidance when you visit. And look out for signs while you’re here which will explain any changes to how you can access different parts of the site.

If you’re showing any of the symptoms of coronavirus, or if you've been in contact with anyone that has the virus and have been notified to self-isolate, please don’t visit.

In line with government guidelines you'll be required to wear a face covering in the indoor areas. Please bring one with you.
