We take great pride in our gardens for the cottages.The lawns are cut weekly and the beds and borders lovingly cared for.

Many of our guests stay 'at home' to enjoy the peace and quiet of the gardens, perhaps catch a glimpse of the kingfisher on the pond or the buzzard soaring high in the sky mobbing an over zealous crow. This is a perfect spot to sunbathe or just sit and relax.

 

Cornwall is home to some outstanding gardens, the mild climate and lack of frosty cold winters allow several tropical plants to flourish.Although Cornish gardens are stunning all year, the best time to enjoy them is in Spring which comes early in this part of the country.Magnificent rhododendruns and camellias are not to be missed. Daffodils are usually blooming during February together with the first glimpse of primroses growing in the country hedges and fields
