Reviews of Lamorran House Gardens

Last year we visited the most amazing garden whilst visiting the lovely village of St Mawes. It is a very unusual garden as it manages to include in 4 acres of land Cornish and Mediterranean elements. This reflects the owners of the garden as Robert is English and his wife, Maria Antonietta is Italian originally from Rome. This garden is beauty, peace, architecture and intimacy all into one. We loved it so much that this year we will be making a special trip to Cornwall just to rivisit Lamorran

(5.0/5)

Best garden in Cornwall (and I have seem them all)> The direction numbers are brilliant but best is the planting and attention to the detail of everything being perfect.... One of the most fascinating gardens I have visited. Thanks for the inspiration.

Quite a contrast to the classic Cornish garden..this is effectively a suburban house on the top of the hill overlooking St Mawes with a garden that clings to the slope below.
It is very densely planted with lots of plants off narrow paths weaving down the hill. Palms and other mediteranean plants dominate giving it a very exotic feel. Since you cannot see much further than about 6 yds ahead what with the narrowness and winding nature of the paths it is a lttle treasure trove of discoveries, both of many fascinating plants and enchanting little vistas.

Well worth a visit !
