Sister of Eden Project, beautiful gardens, Like something out of a fairytale, these hidden gardens have an amazing story behind them. Twenty-nine years ago, Heligan’s historic gardens were hidden under overgrown brambles. It was only the chance discovery of a door in the ruins that led to the restoration of this beautiful estate. They are now some of the finest gardens in the country, and a joy to explore with children. One of the best outdoor things to do in Cornwall with the kids.
