Lanhydrock is country house and estate, with the feel of a wealthy but unpretentious family home. After a devastating fire in 1881 the Jacobean house was refurbished in high-Victorian style, with the best in country house design and planning and the latest mod-cons.
The finest house in Cornwall, superbly set in wooded parkland of 450 acres and encircled by a garden of rare shrubs and trees, lovely in all seasons. There are 49 rooms ranging from the richly furnished main rooms reflecting Victorian comfort to maids' bedrooms, the great kitchen and the newly-opened Nursery Wing.
During the 16th century the Roberts family (later Robartes) rose in affluence from their interests in the tin trade, as merchants and bankers.
Lanhydrock - a monastic Barton (farm) and land had for a long time been a possession of the priory of St Petroc in Bodmin. During the Dissolution, the neighbouring Glynn family acquired Lanhydrock. The estate passed by marriage to the Lyttelton family and later still, again through marriage, to Thomas Trenance in 1577.
Sir Richard Robartes bought the Lanhydrock estate in 1620. Lyttelton Trenance - the son of Thomas Trenance - sold the estate to Sir Richard in 1620. During the year 1624, James I gave Sir Richard a peerage; becoming Baron Robartes of Truro, as he was wealthy enough in the King's view "to be a peer". Though, Lord Buckingham insisted that he should pay for the honour, or be fined to avoid it. The Barony cost Lord Robartes the sum of £10,000. Six years later, in 1630, Lord Robartes began the construction of a magnificent Tudor mansion - replacing the Barton that had been occupied by the Trenance family.
