Trebah Garden

Trebah is possibly our favourite of the Cornish gardens, offering an epic display of colour and texture, set within a beautifully sheltered wooded-valley that gently slopes down to Trebah’s secluded beach that is only accessible from the bottom of the garden – Polgwidden Cove is the perfect spot to take a moment’s rest to drink in the stunning sea views, whilst your friend enjoys a paddle and some doggie ice-cream from the Boathouse Café.

Discover vibrant and lush planting, tallest trees, giant palms, bamboo thickets, camellia-cladded pathways, Rhododendron and Hydrangea valleys, along a Water Garden, built around a natural spring that flows downhill and a beautiful Mallard Pond with a quintessential pale blue arched-bridge. There’s also the brand new Court Garden – a pretty space constructed on the site of a former tennis court. Sheltered by warm stone walling, and planted more formally than other areas of the garden, it’s an incredibly peaceful space to take a moments rest and soak up the riot of colour within a diverse range of plants and flowers.

On site, you will also find a shop with artisan and handcrafted goods as well as a plant centre, stocked with the very best of local Cornish growers. Grab a little piece of Trebah to take home with you from the Nursery, where you will find varieties of plants that mirror those grown in the garden. There’s also a host of seeds, harvested and packaged by Trebah’s expert horticultural team.

Water bowls are available outside the visitor centre and there are complimentary poop bags given to dog owners on arrival. There are four dog bins provided within the garden, as well as one in the car park.
