Pentillie

Pentillie Castle is a country house and estate on the River Tamar in Cornwall, England, traditionally called a castle though shaped as a stuccoed country seat. Built from the late 17th century and significantly enlarged in the early 19th century, it remains a listed building and an active estate with restored gardens and visitor facilities. The mausoleum and riverbank setting are notable features of the grounds.

As it stood in 1810

The shape it held in its prime.

Rectangular two-storey pale-stucco country house with a symmetrical central block flanked by lower projecting pavilions, punctuated by three low square castellated towers with simple battlements and hipped slate roofs. The ground floor centre is defined by a row of red-brick semicircular arches forming a loggia/arcade beneath regular sash windows on the first floor; the left end shows a coursed rubble base. The house faces a broad gravel forecourt and lawn on the River Tamar bank and encloses a central open courtyard.
