An 18th Century house owned by the National Trust has reopened its doors for the first time since the pandemic.

As Trelissick House in Cornwall opens for the year, people are being invited in to view and use the property in a new and different way.

Visitors to the house, which overlooks the Carrick Roads waterway near Truro, will be encouraged to share a table in the dining room or relax in the library.

The National Trust said the move took inspiration from the many families that have lived at Trelissick or used it as a place to holiday since it was first built 270 years ago.

Gareth Lay, general manager, said: "We now want to open the blinds, let the sunshine in and let people make Trelissick their own for the time they are here."

Trelissick House will be open daily until 30 October from 11:00 to 16:00.
