Former home of the Earls of Mount Edgcumbe. Miraculously the walls of the red stone Tudor House survived a direct hit by bombs in 1941 and it was restored by the 6th Earl in 1958. Now beautifully furnished with family possessions. Features include shell seat in Earl’s 2 acres garden, historic buildings and formal gardens including Italian, French, English, American and New Zealand sections.

One of three Grade I listed gardens in Cornwall within 865 acres of Country Park overlooking Plymouth Sound.
