Tregenna Castle, (Cornish: Kastel Tregenow, meaning "Kenow’s settlement")[1] in St Ives, Cornwall, was built by John Stephens in the 18th century and is named after the hill on which it stands. The estate was sold in 1871 and became a hotel, a purpose for which it is still used today.

The castle is a Grade II Listed building.[2] It is surrounded by 72 acres (29 ha) of gardens and natural woodland,[3] and has views along the coastline of Cornwall.
