Trebah Garden

Trebah Garden

Discover the magic of this beautiful Cornish valley garden with over four miles of footpath. Explore under canopies bursting with exotic blooms. Follow vibrant tunnels of colour that cascade down to our very own secluded beach on the Helford River. Trebah offers visitors a year round experience. In spring, Trebah comes alive with a colourful array of 100-year-old rhododendrons, magnolias and camellias; in summer, the giant gunnera is a must see for young and old. In autumn, Hydrangea Valley casts clouds of china blue and soft white across Mallard Pond and in winter, our spectacular champion trees dominate the landscape, whilst plants from the southern hemisphere flower. With adventure play areas, children’s trails and special events all year round, we are a family and dog friendly garden.

Review

My tag line for all of my books is 'Same Country, Different World' and here at Trebah, this garden is the epitome of that statement. In this book we have brought you just as many hidden gem gardens as we have big name gardens, but Trebah garden is an anomaly, for it is both. Being a garden for all seasons is a huge task for the experienced team of gardeners here and not one that a lot of gardens can pull off, but the team here make it look so easy. A lush subtropical paradise awaits you and along with its prehistoric trees, as I stood beneath one of them, I didn't even need to close my eyes to imagine a large Chilesaurus chomping his way through a branch or two. Trebah is a magical place of wonder and discovery and a really great family experience, as well as being a place for seasoned garden lovers.
