A welcoming garden set in an estate with stunning maritime views and lovely woodland walks
In this article you’ll find everything you need to know about what's open and what to expect from your visit.
Trelissick is set on its own peninsula, with panoramic views over the Fal estuary. You can explore the meandering paths through the garden, leading to exotic plants and herbaceous borders bursting with colour. For those bringing four-legged friends, Trelissick offers woodland walks through dappled sunlight and across open parkland with views down the estuary to the town of Falmouth.
Trelissick has its own art gallery run by Cornwall Crafts Association and showcases a wide range of work from local Cornish artists. Crofters café offers a delicious range of light refreshments, hot lunches, afternoon cream teas and packed lunches for children, all using seasonal and local produce. There's a gift shop, second-hand bookshop and six of the best National Trust holiday cottages located around the Trelissick estate.
