The UK’s Only Outdoor Jungle - The Amazing Lost Gardens of Heligan

[@thewayfarerswalk]

Heligan is one of the most mysterious estates in England. Lost to the brambles of time since the outbreak of WW1, this Sleeping Beauty was re-awakened in 1990 to become Europe’s largest garden restoration project.

I remember seeing this jungle transformation on an episode of Escape to the Country.

Love this place - one of the main inspirations behind me starting my own jungle garden!

These are beautiful gardens. Our family have visited here a couple of times during different seasons and we are never disappointed with our visits. Great video that really shows some of the beauty of this place. We are hoping to visit this spring/ summer to see the gardens in full bloom.

[@thewayfarerswalk]
