Heligan Gardens are a phenomenon. In their heyday one of the glories of Cornwall, they fell into romantic decay after the Second World War. Discovered and restored against all odds by Tim Smit and his partners, they are now the most visited private gardens in Britain, voted by BBC Gardener's World 'Britain's Best Loved Gardens'. This is the first book to capture the romance of these great gardens in all their aspects, through a lavish use of new photography, historic images and an informative text.
