The Lost Gardens of Heligan
Highlight • Historical Site
Heligan was built in the 13th century and was purchased by the Tremayne family in the 16th century. The gardens were developed from 1766 until 1914 with the construction of a walled garden, melon yard, bee boles and more.
Following the outbreak of WWI, the house was used as a hospital for officers, from 1939 until 1945 it housed American troops before being converted into flats and sold in the 1970s.
The gradens were restored to their former glory during the 1990s. You can easily spend a day wandering the 200 acres of gardens, which are open from 10am until 6pm. Tickets for adults cost £15. You can find more information, here: heligan.com
