Tregrehan has been home to the Carlyon family since 1565. Jovey Carlyon’s passion for trees during the late 19th century is evident in the towering specimens seen today. Beneath this canopy Gillian Carlyon’s (1924-1987) renowned collection of camellias flourish. In quiet rebellion against this promiscuous genus, the botanical collection of the current ‘gardener’ (encumbered with the same passion as his forebears) requires an appreciation of the diversity of the world’s flora. At its floral peak in the spring, the 20 acre garden and magnificent green-house (circa 1846)

Safety in the Garden and Surrounds

Please wear suitable clothing and footwear (ie boots) for your trip around the garden which may involve some steep slopes.  Graveled paths indicate flat routes, woodland paths (grassed) and tracks are less accessible and should be avoided by those of us less abled. If you have disabilities please seek detailed help and advice on arrival

After Spring and Winter gales and heavy rain slipping and tripping hazards are very real in a woodland garden like Tregrehan.  Please stick to the paths at all times and proceed with particular care when conditions are wet underfoot.  Under certain conditions you will be advised not to take particular paths, but to avoid limiting your access we respect your sense to make these decisions and share responsibility for your safety

The woodland gardens and pathways were created long before modern health and safety requirements so please explore carefully.  The garden does contain hidden hazards especially for children (eg badger holes, steep slopes, a stream and a lake) and it is therefore essential that children are accompanied at all times

While the Tregrehan Estate has taken reasonable measures to eliminate risks for visitors it is not possible to remove every conceivable risk in a woodland garden of this sort.   The responsibility for the safety of visitors should therefore be seen to be shared between visitors and the Estate

Please pay attention to the signage on the Estate.   Areas may be CLOSED or PRIVATE due to quarries, mineshafts, water, pest control or nesting birds.   There is no access in these areas at any time
