Potager Garden

Rescued from dilapidation by its current owners, this gorgeous garden has been renovated by volunteers into a delightful working garden modeled on the French "potager." Highlights include the 30m greenhouse and the super veggie cafe (mains £6 to £10); popular with lunching locals at weekends. The garden is 6 miles southwest of Falmouth.

There's always a good selection of plants for sale too. Check the website for directions, as it's tricky to find – the easiest route is to head along the A394 towards Helston, turn off towards Gweek and Constantine and follow the signs. Sat-navs can be unreliable in this part of Cornwall.
