'As you come from Mevagissey to the house, on the right hand lies the largest barn I have ever seen...You pass through a large gate way into the stable yard where that which remains of the stables is vastly larger than any I have seen in Cornwall. The chapel lyes on the left hand but is now converted into a very large barn and having been often alter'd one should scarce know what it had been but for a nich us'd for holy water which being of the same stile as the remains of the Ancient House I there copy'd as well as I could in a darksome place. The house you enter by a small porch on this side which makes me conclude that the great front must be to the south and that this was the back inferior entrance. The ancient hall makes a pretty large hall, a dining room over and a very large kitchen but when formerly in one room must have been very magnificent. In the kitchen the timbering of the roof work appears and is very great and curiously carved and disposed in parabolick curves above and supported by pillars of oak which descend visibly thro' the wall to the bottom of the room...no remains in the County come near what Bodrugan can show.'
