About this event

Port Eliot is incredibly proud of its 100 acre Repton landscaped gardens. These encompass a vast rhododendron garden, maze, bowling green, orangery, arboretum and magnificent view of the estuary – not to mention the majestic St Germans viaduct stretching over it.

In recent years our visitors have enjoyed picnicking in many of the picturesque spots in our gardens – a unique experience to celebrate a special event, or a treat whilst on holiday.

The site on which Port Eliot sits is to the north of a steep hill which protects it from the prevailing south-westerly winds. On the highest point of this hill there is an Iron Age ring fort, from which its early inhabitants could see down the estuary towards the sea. It was from this direction that the greatest danger came by way of marauding seafarers.
