Trebah Gardens

An exotic, flower-filled delight

Trebah Gardens

Trebah, near Falmouth, is one of Cornwall’s great gardens. Sub-tropical plants and vivid blooms fill its 26-acre valley. Four miles of footpaths snake down to a private beach.

At Trebah, the seasons deliver different horticultural delights. Spring brings a riot of rhododendrons, magnolias and camellias. In autumn blue and white hydrangeas come into bloom.

A series of distinct areas vie for your attention. Bamboozle boasts 50 species of towering bamboo. The Gunnera Passage sees you walking through a passageway of giant rhubarb. Alice's Seat is a cob and thatch summer house. While the Stumpery is a fern-filled dell.

The Trebah Kitchen gives local ingredients a street food twist.
