Trenython Manor

Among the country homes of note is the magnificent Georgian house Pencarrow - where Sir Arthur Sullivan reputedly wrote the music for Iolanthe - with its outstanding furniture, porcelain, paintings and Grade 2 listed gardens, and the late Victorian Lanhydrock House with wooded estate and gardens - and successful dormouse breeding programme!
Cornwall’s gardens are fabulous and many, close by is the intimate, and award-winning Pine Lodge Gardens; over 30 acres, developed by Ray and Shirley Clemo and inspired by their world-wide travels. Ravishing displays of flora can also be seen at National Trust owned Trebah Gardens, past Falmouth, rated among the 80 finest gardens in the world, and Trelissick Gardens near Truro, a sweeping 400 acres with large collections of hydrangeas, camellias, rhododendrons, sub-tropical plants and a laurel maze dating from 1833.
Two other must sees are both located in St Austell: the Eden Project, which is dominated by its massive geodesic domes housing rainforest and Mediterranean vegetation, and The Lost Gardens of Heligan, one of Europe’s largest garden restorations which features exotic glasshouses; a 22-acre sub-tropical ‘jungle’; a ‘Lost Valley’ of 30 acres, plus lakes, ponds, picnic areas etc.
