Heligan Locals' Week

From Saturday 1st - Sunday 9th March, we're inviting all permanent residents of Cornwall and Devon to rediscover The Lost Gardens of Heligan as we open our gates for free.

From Saturday 1st to Sunday 9th March, there will be no admission charges—our way of welcoming you to experience the magic of Heligan in spring.

While entry is complimentary, we encourage visitors to support our charity of the year, St Petrocs, helping to make a difference to those in need.

Spring is one of the most enchanting times to visit Heligan, with vibrant rhododendrons and camellias—part of our national collection—coming into bloom.

From goat grooming to pig tea parties, our rare breed residents will be ready to meet you at Cornwall’s only RBST certified rare breeds farm park.

Keen gardener? Join our daily garden tours, get hands-on in wonderful workshops, or take part in Q&A sessions to gain expert tips for bringing a touch of Heligan to your own garden.

Love a little retail therapy? Enjoy 15% off at the Heligan Plant Centre, perfect for picking up something special to grow at home.

Whether you’re discovering Heligan for the first time or returning to the enchanting estate, we can’t wait to welcome you.
