Glendurgan Garden

About

Glendurgan Garden — a National Trust gem perched above the hamlet of Durgan on the Helford River—offers visitors three lush valleys, an enchanting maze, a private beach, and a charming schoolroom. The estate features a spectacular cherry‑laurel maze, expansive wildflower meadows, a secluded beach christened Durgan Beach, a rotating rope swing known as the Giant’s Stride, and the historic Apple Shed. Family‑friendly pathways wind through aromatic boulevards, while adults can still enjoy the garden’s mature trees, wildflower displays, and an orchard of apple trees. Visitors may also stroll to the nearby teahouse for a short break and roam the car park, which offers free parking for National Trust members and modest fees for others.
