We are lucky in Cornwall that the beautiful but humble snowdrop appears earlier and in more abundance than in most parts of the UK. At Treworgey Linda has taken time over the years to help the snowdrops found in the woodlands to spread to the banks around and about the cottages and lane. As a result, Treworgey is a great first stop if you're looking to see the snowdrops in Cornwall this February! Below are our suggestions for the best places in the area to see more.
If you fancy a short break (or longer!) to see the Cornish snowdrops and walk in some beautiful places, have a look at our availability. If we don't have a cottage the right size for you available, please get in touch as we can sometimes offer a free upgrade in certain circumstances!
