Our second annual Cornwall Asparagus Festival was an all-round success. Well over 300 visitors attended the event, doubling its visitor numbers since our first event in 2012.
Aaron Pascoe, General Manager at The Penventon, was delighted with the turnout. “We’re passionate about local produce and we’ve worked hard to make this year’s festival bigger and better than the first. We’re so pleased that so many people came along to celebrate the county’s fantastic produce with us and we hope that the festival just goes from strength to strength, year on year. We have so much to offer here in Cornwall, many talented local chefs and delicious produce, so it’s great to celebrate all things local.”
The festival, which took place on Sunday 19 May, was a free one-day event with a mixture of asparagus recipes, live cookery demonstrations, tasters, a special asparagus menu and plenty of Cornish food and drink on offer. The festival is about so much more than asparagus; the Food Market showcased everything from home grown veg and Cornish duck, to Cornish wine and clotted cream. Presented by BBC Radio Cornwall’s Daphne Skinnard and Tiffany Truscott the live cookery demonstrations were a real highlight of the festival.
Joe Lado Devesa, head chef, comments: “People came from far and wide to explore as much Cornish produce as they could manage. Local growers John and Jennie Keeler were happy to answer questions about asparagus and we had some fantastic chefs, including Tim Treseder, Arty Williams, Nigel Tabb and Mark Devonshire sharing the secrets behind their favourite recipes. It was fantastic to see the whole community coming together to meet the people behind the produce, celebrate and really connect with local food.”

Mr Pascoe, reflects on the Hotels achievements; “We feel honoured as staff and management to have served the community now for forty five years- but there is nothing more heartfelt than when a Bride says with a tear- ‘My mother got married here.’ We have homed in on our skills and services through the years, we have exceeded our strengths and used them to support our weaknesses in order to create an equal level of excellence throughout. We have carried out many fabulous weddings in our time. There is no limit to what we can do with regards to style and value and the Bridal Fayre is an excellent example of that- so yes- 25 years is indeed cause for celebration.’
The event will be held between 10.30 and 3pm- it’s one for the diary.

Receptionist/Marketing sales assistant Hannah Blight was proud to greet former college lecturer Suzette Sadler to the Hotel yesterday afternoon, along 
with 10 students from Cornwall College Camborne.
The students were being shown around the Hotel by Reception Manager Nigel Jeffery, and informed of the system in which groups and tours are checked in and catered for. As an ex student of Travel and Tourism herself, Hannah was able to provide the students with inspiration; they were able to see what they could do when they complete their course, and the opportunities that arrive.
Suzette even commented on the day as a success- “The students came back to college full of enthusiasm, wrote up their notes and are planning to drop in their CV’s!” A great way of continuing the great relationship that we have with the college team.
Great work guys.
The Hotel sparked some interest on Friday 11th January when we had a special guest Nick Clegg in our midst. The deputy Prime Minister hosted our luncheon for the Cornwall chamber of commerce and Industry questions and answers networking event. He was impressed to say the least, and enjoyed the range of fresh local Cornish produce that was so beautifully displayed around the room.
“A grand banquet fit for a king” said one of the members.
A great excuse to showcase our best assets, we received such lovely comments from everyone. Head chef Joe Lado Devesa was extremely pleased with the positive feedback.
“A job well executed.” With such delicious cuisine, it’s only right to mix business with pleasure!
Well done to everyone involved.

Brenda said;
“I appreciate very much the support that the Pascoe family and all at the hotel have given over the past years. Much of the £82,500 that I have raised for Cancer Research UK has been through the Penventon Park Hotel. All the guests were very generous with donations and I was very touched when at the end of a hard nights work the staff presented me with their tips of over £100″.

Nathan Thomas is raising funds for Bristol Children’s Hospital, Renal Unit. This is a charity very close to is heart as this is where his 7 year old daughter, Oceanna, has been looked after since she was born.
Throughout her life Oceanna has spent a lot of time travelling back and forth from Bristolchildren’s Hospital as she was born with only one kidney and several other medical conditions. The kidney that she was born with was not fully developed and was only functioning at a small percentage.
As Oceanna has grown over the years, the doctors and specialists informed the family that her kidney function had deteriorated rapidly and was unable to support her body; if she did not have a transplant soon she would have to go on dialysis. Nathan was tested and found out that he was a suitable donor. The family had to wait as long as possible to ensure that Oceanna was at her strongest which took nearly 4 years.
On the 5th October 2011 they operated removing Nathans left kidney and transported it across to Oceanna. After 9 and half hours of surgery between us the operation was over and the outcome was a fantastic success – Nathan’s kidney worked straight away.Oceanna has named her new kidney ‘Sydney the Kidney’
This event will be held exactly one year after the transplant. The event will be held at the Penventon Park Hotel in Redruth starting at 7pm. We are hoping to raise as much money as possible for the Bristol Children’s Hospital by asking local businesses to donate prizes for the raffle and auction.
Tickets are also on sale for this fantastic evening at only £6 each. Using the raffle number on your ticket, you will be entered into the Oceanna’s Raffle with a star prize. Please see the poster for all contact details and the line up for the evening.
