About us



Trethewey - guest house - Fowey - Bob and Maria



​In April 2019, Bob and Maria Dennedy did the impossible and opened their dream business that would encompass their passions and allow them to share with others a place they truly love; Fowey, Cornwall.

For them, and their family Fowey is unlike any other harbour town in England and a place where generations of Maria’s family have lived and continue to do so today.​

Before opening Trethewey House, Bob worked as a painter for Formula One, while Maria worked as an Accounts/Senior Administrator for a local law firm. They have two grown children, Sophie and Joe, along with a son and daughter in law who occasionally support the business in the busy periods.

Sadly, Maria passed away from a severe illness not long after opening the business, but knowing this was her dream and with her family still close, Bob and his son Joe run the business together and strive to make Maria part of everything they do.

Trethewey also has a resident pup, a West Highland terrier called Dexter, to keep Bob out of trouble, who loves people very much.

Trethewey Guest House is not only the perfect place for those seeking adventure or a romantic getaway for two, but even those simply wanting to experience Fowey and all it has to offer.

Trethewey Guest House is ready to welcome you.
