Built in 1886, discover the delights of one
of the finest Victorian Kitchen Gardens in Cornwall, a county with a rich diversity of garden attractions and scenery. 

​

The garden surrounding the house is set in 22 acres with lawns, ornamental lake, paths through camellia woods, orchards, and a fine walled organic vegetable garden. 

​​​

Duana Pearson started horticulture professionally in 2008, and joined us at Tresillian as Head Gardener in 2023. She’s worked for the National Trust, Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan over that time, mostly in crop production.

​

Duana and the team are excited to nurture and develop the garden and estate over the coming years. Guests can look forward to watching our new wildflower fields, woodlands, rose garden and forest garden grow. 

​

Guests are free to wander the private grounds but Duana will happily give guests an informative and enjoyable tour of the grounds and garden. Flowers, fruits and vegetables are grown to supply guests staying in the house.
