The Lost Gardens of Heligan at Pentewan near the picturesque fishing port of Mevagissey are approximately 10 miles from the hotel and can be reached easily by car in approximately 20 minutes. We would recommend that you allow at least half a day for your visit.

Rediscovered in 1990 after slumbering for over 70 years, Heligan has been restored to its former glory and is now one of Cornwall's best gardens.

Other gardens in the area:
Pine Lodge Gardens, St Austell
Marsh Villa Gardens, Par
Trewithien Gardens, Truro
Hidden Valley Gardens, Tresmill, Par

The fashionable resort of Newquay, with its fantastic beaches and bustling nightlife, can be reached by taking the picturesque journey along the Newquay branch line from Par station situated just opposite The Royal Inn.

From the Aquarium and zoo to exciting adventure playgrounds, Newquay boasts a world of family attractions away from its beaches. There is plenty of other family fun when you've had enough of sandcastles and ice cream.

Come face to face with reef sharks in the underwater tunnel at the Blue Reef Aquarium, make a splash in the tropics of The Oasis Fun Pool or Waterworld at Trenance Leisure Park.
