Wonderful gardens laid out around the ruins of an old Benedictine abbey by Augustus Smith, Lord Proprietor of the Scillys in the 19th century. Today it is home to more than 2000 tropical and subtropical plant species.

We were not consciously looking for this place. We didn't know this place existed. And so we were very surprised by the variety of plants, flowers, colors, scents. And that in the middle of the Atlantic. A dream place.
