Heligan Night Garden - Relaxed Session

We are very pleased to offer a relaxed evening for guests with disabilities or additional needs who may prefer a slightly quieter evening within the magical Heligan Night Garden.

This special session will be held on Wednesday 16th December between 4.30-7.00pm.

These sessions can be by clicking here or via Heligan reception by calling 01726 845100.

Journey through the magical garden trail, exploring woodlands and gardens beautifully lit with installations and lanterns. Discover breath-taking displays of fauna and flora as we celebrate the characters of our community, all illuminated within Heligan’s much-loved and iconic locations. 

This is the perfect event for friends and family who are looking for an unforgettable evening this winter and Christmas.

If you're looking for a garden light show this Christmas, Heligan Night Garden is Cornwall's finest.

Following an extended 1-mile one-way journey around our accessible Gardens, the Heligan team will direct you to discover nature in a celebration of the wildlife that make Heligan their home all year round. Explore at your own pace, stop to take in the smells, toast marshmallows by our stunning fire bowls, experience our glittering oak trees, and enjoy seasonal warming take away refreshments and meals amid a truly festive backdrop for your winter’s evening.

We expect the magic will make you want to walk the route more than once, which is encouraged. However please do so with respect for others.

The route will take 1 hour approximately to complete, depending on how fast you move or how long you dwell!

The Heligan Night Garden is an outdoor experience which runs at Christmas and during the winter months and so we suggest sturdy footwear, torches, and appropriate dress for the Cornish weather. The route is suitable for wheelchair users and pushchairs, and alternative routes are provided where the pathways become more challenging. It is not recommended to bring dogs to this event.

The Heligan Shop will be open selling festive treats, local produce, and a variety of beautiful gift ideas for the festive season. Make sure you visit the festive tasting counter to try something new and delicious.
