Cardinham Gardens

The rural parish of Cardinham on the south west side of Bodmin Moor has a wide range of ecosystems as the moorland merges into woodland and ancient downs and meadows. May 5th group opening has 2 gardens, both welcome dogs. Pinsla Garden with naturalistic planting, stone circle and vegetable garden in peaceful woodland, and Deviock Farm, a 2 acre south facing wildlife friendly garden with many mature trees and shrubs developed over past five yrs. Enclosed farmhouse garden, pond, damp areas, vegetables and a disused waterwheel pit feature. On May 12th, 3 gardens are open, (regret no dogs). Pinsla Garden, The Old School House and Lower Treslea. The Old School House is a cottage garden created in the grounds of a Victorian school by a passionate and enthusiastic gardener over 35yrs. Lower Treslea has a separate good-sized orchard/vegetable plot. The garden has been constructed over 20 yrs by the present owners as a haven for wildlife: herbaceous borders, roses, magnolias and wisteria. Picturesque valley on the edge of Bodmin moor.
