Trewarmett (Cornish: Trewerman)[1] is a small hamlet in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It lies within the civil parish of Tintagel, 3 miles (5 km) north-west of Camelford.[2] To the west of Trewarmett is Trebarwith Nature Reserve.

Trewarmett lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Almost a third of Cornwall has AONB designation, with the same status and protection as a National Park.

There was formerly a Methodist chapel in Trewarmett; the Methodist cemetery is nearby.

In the valley nearby are several disused slate quarries including the Prince of Wales Quarry which is adapted for visiting.[3]
