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.
This September, join us for a variety of displays, demonstrations and talks to enjoy and learn more about our very important animals and the role they have within our historical landscape at Heligan.
This September we shine the spotlight on our magnificent, rare breeds of livestock and invite you to join us on a walking tour of various parts of the farm giving an overview of the history of the farm and local area, what we produce, how we do this and the biodiversity we strive to develop and enhance on our farm.
The Heligan Kitchen will play host to The Cornish Seal talk, starting at 6.30pm. Expertly introduced by Sue Sayer and Rob Wells from Cornwall Seal Research Group and encompassing everything you ever wanted to know about our beautiful Cornish seals but with narratives about local seals that live and visit the three bays geography.
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!
We are delighted to once again be able to offer all residents of Cornwall & Devon the opportunity to purchase a Heligan Local’s Pass throughout the month of September.
We’d love to share in the experience of your time with us as we celebrate summer and welcoming you all back to explore The Lost Gardens of Heligan once again.
As we enter our fourth decade of stewardship of the iconic Heligan Estate, we look ahead to the future and invite our visitors to join us on the next stage of our journey.
