We can't wait to welcome you back to The Gardens
Pre-booking essential. Please click here for more information.
Thirty years ago, Heligan’s historic gardens were unknown and unseen; lost to the brambles of time since the outbreak of WW1. It was only the chance discovery of a door in the ruins that led to the restoration of this once great estate. Today, The Lost Gardens have been put back where they belong: in pride of place among the finest gardens in England.
Throughout October and November, visitors are invited to take part in an ‘Autumn Wellbeing Experience’, part of a collaboration between Heligan and South West based GP Dr Lucy Loveday.
This Winter we invite you to explore The Heligan Night Garden, a traditional Lantern Experience set amidst the atmospheric Lost Gardens. Various dates between 4th December & 3rd January
This Christmas the Heligan Team are excited to confirm the return of a very special guest, as we look forward to welcoming Father Christmas and his team of Elves to The Lost Gardens. Please note that Father Christmas is now fully booked and is sadly unable to see anymore children before the big day.
Whether you’re looking to experience a traditional Cornish Cream Tea or sample some of the heritage fruit and vegetables grown here at Heligan, the Heligan Kitchen & Bakery provides the perfect retreat.
At the Lost Gardens there’s a network of magical gardens, woodland walks and farmland brimming with interest and intrigue; and with over 200 acres – enough room to tire the most energetic little legs!
Remembrance Sunday 2020 will be very different for us all and sadly, we are unable to host our annual ceremony in the Melon Yard.
Heligan, an anagram of 'healing', has been a popular place of refuge and restoration for many during the pandemic and we feel it is important for the local community's physical and mental health and wellbeing again now. Many of our regular visitors have pleaded for us to remain open and after much thought, we have taken the decision to do this in a safe, controlled and limited way.
This October, we are delighted to once again be able to offer all residents of Cornwall & Devon the opportunity to purchase a Heligan Local’s Pass.
