This is the third of three Cornish garden events this weekend  - on the day before we are near Lands End visiting gay author Patrick Gale's garden and Chygurno. On the Friday, we will be greeting GOC member David Stockwell as he reaches the end of his epic walk from  John O'Groats.

The Lost Gardens of Heligan are one of Britain's most famous restorations in recent years. Rescued from a wilderness they have now become a must visit for gardeners from all over the world.

Today, Heligan remains one of the most loved and romantic gardens in the UK, appreciated as much for their beauty and mystery, as for the ground-breaking restoration.

Over 200 acres await explorers, plant lovers and garden romantics. Victorian Productive Gardens and Pleasure Grounds beckon along winding paths laid out over two centuries ago. The Jungle takes you on a sub-tropical journey across our rope bridge, through bamboo tunnels and under majestic tree ferns whilst the Estate reveals a lost world of rare breed livestock, wildlife and ancient woodlands.

If you plan to visit more than once within seven days, when purchasing your tickets, please let  them know that you'd like to revisit and they will upgrade your tickets at no extra charge.

This event takes place on day after GOC member David Stockwell is scheduled to reach Land's End, completing his epic John O'Groats to Land's End walk. A number of fellow GOC members are planning to join him at the end of his walk and celebrate his achievement.
