The Japanese Garden nestles at the bottom of a tranquil valley in the small village of St Mawgan, not far from Newquay airport. The garden was built over six years by Robert and Stella Hone, alongside their Bonsai nursery, opening to the public in 1997. It is open to the public from March to October.
It makes an interesting comparison to the ancient and larger Koishikawa Korakuen gardens in Tokyo.
