Trevarrack is a small rural settlement in west Cornwall, England, lying a few miles from the market town of Penzance and within easy reach of the dramatic Cornish coast. The name begins with the Cornish element "tre", meaning homestead, reflecting the area's agricultural origins; the locality is characterised by lanes, hedgerows and rolling farmland with views towards the sea on clear days.

Historically it shares in west Cornwall's broader past - centuries of farming alongside the influence of nearby mining and fishing communities - and today the local economy is a mix of agriculture, commuting to nearby towns and the seasonal pull of tourism. Socially it tends to be a quiet, close‑knit place with links to Cornish traditions and language, while remaining convenient for amenities and cultural attractions on the coast.
