Heligan Night Garden, Mevagissey Cornwall - Magical lanterns and light sculptures

[@bernicebest]

What a stunning night garden, never seen the like before, the amount of time and thought that has gone into it is phenomenal! have enjoyed the running commentary and Andrews little amusing nuggets he always comes up with bless him! the shooting stars display was so poignant, I’ve spared a thought and shed a tear for all those precious little souls that didn’t make it home! 😢 thank you 🙏 Sarah & Andrew for an enchanting and magical light show, this one is definitely a keeper “👌” and congratulations to everyone involved in the making of this spectacular one of a kind display 👏👏👏

Good morning Bernice. This was absolutely an enchanting walk with Sarah and Andrew through the Lost Gardens of Helgian So beautiful. I feel like Sarah after watching this amazing video, happy & relaxed.☺

@@GalwayGirl1 Good morning GG. I guessed you would see this fabulous Heligan Night Garden 🪴 was about to send you the tip but there you were! you are getting as wise as ‘The Night Owl 🦉’

[@GalwayGirl1]

@@bernicebest Whenever I look for you, I find you here on this channel and with good reason. Sarah and Andrew are two extraordinary and very likeable people and they always go on great trips👍. I'd love to have the wisdom of a night owl, but I'll probably stay at sparrow level.🥴

[@bernicebest]

@@GalwayGirl1 😊you are too modest GG. I have just messaged you with a question about a remark from someone, that has really upset me, not sure if it is aimed at me or, all of us Sassenach’s! 🤔

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

We had a wonderful evening and so refreshing to celebrate nature! Sarah :)

[@judybee]

Wow, thank you for taking us along with you to the magical Heligan gardens at night. How beautiful. We visited Heligan and spent a lovely day there when I could walk long distances. But this was truly something else with those amazing lights.....I can just imagine the children's faces as they walk about looking at the sculptures all lit up. We are all big kids at heart arn't we? x J x

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

I felt like a big kid with the marshmallow toasting - never done that before!! Sarah :)

[@JoannaLouise200]

So beautiful, especially the illuminated paper sculptures ~ thank you! One for Andrew: If you'd taken that Christmas tree, it would've become the Hooligan Night Garden...boom-boom! :)

Good evening yes absolutely beautiful and thoughtful.Really enjoyed this video thank you.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

You're welcome! Sarah :)

[@keithlightminder3005]

To a Canadian it doesn’t look wintery to me, but I love the lit figures of the owls and other critters in a lovely watercolour and ink illustration style, so beautiful! Thank you so much for having the viewers along to such lovely places. What a gift. Imagine all the memories those kids will have to resource their imaginings and spur ideas. I love to listen and watch your videos as I design and make, and it really helps me dream beautiful dreams, and think of fun ideas for sculpture and pottery and I’m in my 50’s.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Ahh yes! Our winters in Cornwall are mild, in part because we are surrounded by the sea! It's great to think we inspire your creativity! Sarah :)

[@jeanspry3242]

That was so lovely to see. Thank you both 😊

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Glad you enjoyed it, Sarah :)

[@joyhursey1480]

Wow that was so lovely to see, thank you .What a wonderful idea , the shooting stars for the children made me cry.. Absolutely amazing.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Me too! So sad! Sarah :)

[@dottydot8058]

and the shooting star lights very touching for all the parents of those children

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

A wonderful display! Sarah :)

Beautiful ❣️Thank you for taking us with you....🤗

[@sallydingle321]

Hi guys...just got to watch this at last, as I visited Heligan night garden recently and didn't want to spoil the surprise 😋. Wasn't it amazing...we were very lucky too, and saw it on a calm, cold star lit night 👌. The day after... it was windy and wet... I felt a bit sorry for people who had booked on those days...also for the staff directing people around 🙏. I was so impressed with all the work to make it as special as it was, and the end was so thought provoking wasn't it 😊...just wonderful 👏💝😘

[@NickHewlettTHATCHIT]

Really Lovely U2 💃🤺 For Many Reasons. Love to See Your Enjoyment 🤗😁🤗🐌

[@TravellingTorunn]

Magical and beautiful 🥰 I visited there in September 2012 and will visit again in June 2023. But it will not be looking like this. Luckily we have a light exhibition called Lumagica here in Bergen these days. So I will not be without light magic here 😊 Thank you for sharing this lovely event 🥰

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

I love how lighting is being used to add joy to the dark days of winter! Sarah :)

Hope you enjoy it! Sarah :)

[@TheWalnut47]

@@CornishWalkingTrails We visited Heligan yesterday evening. It was brilliant and spectacular. Thank you both for the recommendation. 😀

[@SpanishEclectic]

Oh how wonderful! I've seen two documentaries on the Lost Gardens of Heligan and their history. Really fascinating. I love how the themes of the displays are in keeping with nature and are not overly commercial (which sometimes happens here in the U.S. I loved the barn owl, the fox, and the hanging fuchsias, as well as the lost stars. Thank you for sharing this lovely festive place. Cheers! :)

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

It was refreshing to see. a display that was celebrating nature, we really enjoyed it! Sarah :)

[@SpanishEclectic]

@@CornishWalkingTrails I sent this video to a friend and she was so excited over the animal lanterns, she searched for and found the company that makes them. The Lantern Company in Liverpool. I recommend taking a look at their portfolio, which includes a Bran Stoker Festival in Dublin, and a number of lighted parades. Really wonderful work.

[@sieglindefleck3136]

Das war Super 👍👍👍

[@esthermorrissey1454]

Beautiful, really enjoyed it and now going to watch it again. I loved the ‘shooting stars’ and the reference to ‘Little Harbour’ . such a lot of work has gone into this to make it a wonderful display of lights. Loved the edit and the music 10/10 Thank you.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Thank you! Sarah :)

[@lntkernow]

Me and the wife went on Friday, amazing isn't it? 🤩😍🎄

What a beautiful treat for Christmas. Thank you both so much for this lovely, festive walk. Early Merry Christmas to all of you.

And to you! Sarah :)

[@suerowlands1457]

Oh wow! Thank you so much for sharing this. An incredible amount of work and imagination must have gone into this. A lovely way to focus our thoughts on the work of 'Little Harbour' and beautifully filmed and presented by you.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Yes, those poor little things and the families, must be harder at this time of year too, Sarah :)

[@leecollins8051]

Absolutely fantastic guys ...I love heligan gardens ....I miss it there .. Hope your both doing fine ....lee xx

Out in the Dark, 🤗 Lolz... 😁

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Filming at night is a challenge for amateurs like ourselves - our equipment falls far short of the pros so always a challenge but this is not our first venture! Sarah :)

[@busterguff1068]

I'm going to take the grandchildren there in a couple of weeks

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

It's great! Sarah :)

Well, yes, I guess! LOL! Sarah :)

[@marieryan2541]

Hi Sarah and Andrew. Really enjoyed your night garden. I had tears in my eyes when I saw the shooting stars as it reminded me of my late daughter Kathleen who I lost. Just one question if the chickens are watching chicken run and the pigs are watching babe what are the cows watching.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Ha! Ha! Stakeout!! Sarah :D

[@sarahhopkins577]

you two really make my day 🙂

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Ahhh! Thank you!! Sarah :)
