About
Carn Brea Castle is an 18th‑century building perched atop Carn Brea hill near the town of Redruth in Cornwall. Originally built as a hunting lodge by the Basset family on the site of a 14th‑century chapel, the structure is now a popular Middle‑Eastern restaurant that has combined historic charm with modern cuisine. Its striking architecture, set against the dramatic backdrop of the hill, offers diners panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. The castle’s heritage is further enriched by a Ford Anglia that appeared in the Harry Potter films and was later discovered on the property, adding a touch of pop‑culture intrigue to this unique dining destination.
