Happy Easter!

There are a number of things you can do in Cornwall for Easter, but the best one if you have kids with you is to find a Easter egg hunt in one of the glorious gardens the county is not short of.


If you happen to be around  Milton Abbot, Endsleigh House is hosting an Easter Egg Hunt today at 3:00 p.m.
Endsleigh House

Have an afternoon tea while the children are hunting. You will think you are in paradise, the Tamar river flowing down the valley, the place is just the perfect country house with the magic touch of Olga Polizzi thrown in. Bliss, if you ask me.
We have been blessed with the perfect weather up to today and I truly wish our visitors arriving today for the Easter weekend will be lucky enough to enjoy it too.




Have A Happy Happy Easter and ...leave the lambs in the field, please! We at Tredethy House have decided to do so and do not sport any meat on the menu. Except if you really are screaming for a full English tomorrow morning you will be served with one. After all you are a guest!

LOVE DAY


Happy Valentine!
Today there certainly is a lot of love and kissy kissy going around on our planet, that is why of all celebrations days brought by our consumerist society, this is one that can't be bad for us.
Apart for the lovers love, this day at Tredethy is a celebration of all things that we love about this world, ...and think about it, there is little not to love since we live on a pretty amazing planet!
A little bit closer to home, if you live in a Country where apples are sooo gorgeous, you are in Eden/Heaven don't you agree? Italian and French apples I really must admit go nowhere near the magic of The British Apples.

This is to say that every little thing (as little as loving your bread and butter and jam moment) that we love nourish us with love that we can give back to the world.





Today is a sunny magnificent day in Cornwall with the expectation of spring to come in the air and birds starting singing again. 
So I guess we see you all soon for a nice weekend perhaps!

Trattoria Christmas recipes


The table is ready prepared by my three little Elves, the sound of Christmas music is a cocooning lullaby, the sky outside is peach and blue, the frost is crystallizing this magical moments.

Chistmas is coming...

It is this time of the year again and we had already our fair share of snow, frozen pipes and the lot here at Tredethy. I am running out of Tredethy apples, autumn has given full way to winter and we are planning holidays, edible gifts and Christmas lunch.

Autumn is the best time in Cornwall


With all the intentions to keep writing this blog regularly, here I am after what it seems an awful lot of time, and indeed it is.
I wanted to recap the summer time with some landmark pictures, but somehow it doesn't feel right, because without realising we are already running up for Christmas.

Prosciutto e melone: the summer staple of an Italian table


Prosciutto e melone is an Italian staple. A summer starter often enjoyed as a main and only course for a light lunch.
