An attraction in the South West offers an enchanting way to enjoy your holiday in Cornwall.

Holidaymakers sampling holiday cottages and holiday homes in Cornwall are recommended a visit to the Lost Gardens of Heligan.

The beautiful gardens located near St Austell will play host to the annual Heligan Harvest Display, an event marking the fruition of the gardening year.

The event, which takes place from Friday October 24th to Sunday November 2nd , is held to showcase the gardens' outstanding and diverse range of produce arranged in "spectacular" displays.

Holidaymakers will be treated to a display of produce including over 20 varieties of pumpkins and 75 different types of vegetable ranging from squashes, gourds, onions, shallots, kiwis, figs, grapes, apples and aubergines among others.

As well as seeing the displays, holidaymakers can also enjoy the award winning gardens in the 80 acre property adorned with a delightful blend of walled gardens under restoration.
