EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of the Tregaskiss Caerthilian Hotel, located in the picturesque village of Landewednack, Cornwall. Taken in the early 1900s by renowned photographer Arthur Philp, this image offers a glimpse into Victorian-era charm and Cornish heritage. The photograph transports us to a quaint street corner, where we are greeted by the sight of the Transvaal Luncheon and Tea Rooms on our right. The Post Office stands proudly ahead, its presence anchoring the scene. The Tregaskiss Caerthilian Hotel takes center stage, exuding an air of elegance and grandeur that was characteristic of its time. Once known as a premier hotel for visitors exploring Cornwall's stunning Lizard Peninsula, it later transformed into the beloved Caerthillian Guest House. This historic establishment has witnessed countless stories unfold within its walls over generations. As we admire this snapshot from yesteryears, we can almost imagine horse-drawn carriages passing by and locals going about their daily lives. The nostalgia captured within these frames is palpable; it speaks volumes about a simpler era when life moved at a gentler pace. This print serves as both an ode to Cornish history and an invitation to immerse oneself in the beauty of days gone by. It encapsulates not only architectural marvel but also evokes emotions tied to cherished memories and treasured moments spent amidst Cornwall's breathtaking landscapes.
