Days Out - Enys Gardens

I have been meaning to blog for some time about a day out that Libby and husband Mark had a few weeks ago - they visited Enys gardens said by some to be the oldest garden in Cornwall.  Between Truro and Falmouth the gardens are perhaps best known for the wonderful bluebells in Spring.





Parts of the lower gardens remind me of the Lost Valley at Heligan.




And after all that walking you can take a short drive to the Pandora Inn set right on the estuary for a refreshing drink (better to eat elsewhere though).  A couple of years ago the Pandora suffered a terrible fire and has been rebuilt to its former glory - as you can see the it was a spring tide and pretty high, it has been know to rush right into the pub so you won't find any carpets just serviceable slate flags.
