There's subtropical lushness around every corner at these stunning gardens on the banks of the Helford River. The views from the 18th Century house across the gardens to the river are not to be missed.

Glendurgan Garden
A sheltered valley garden bordering the Helford River next door to Trebah. 'A little 'peace' of heaven on earth' is how the Fox family, who donated Glendurgan to the National Trust, described the garden. With fine trees, rare and exotic plants from all over the world, carpets of wild flowers, and stunning spring displays of camellias and magnolias, it is a little slice of peace served up on the banks of the Helford. The Maze and the 'Giant's Stride' rope swing are firm favourites with the kids;

St Mawes Castle
This impressive castle is one of the best-preserved of Henry VII's coastal fortresses. Together with Pendennis Castle on the other side of the Fal Estaury, St Mawes stood guard against attacks from France and Spain during the 16th Century. Today, its superb location, with stunning views of the coastline, makes it a great spot to enjoy a picnic. Take the ferry from Falmouth for a day out without the car.
