Enys Calendar

Do you believe in fairies and dragons?

We do, and we are delighted that the woodland fairies and friends are returning to Enys Gardens this summer. After the success of last year, the fairies have returned with even more of their secretive  and usually shy friends. As you meander through our beautiful garden, you may get to see a unicorn and its foal, some very naughty boggarts, some friendly dragons, and even a life-size Kraken. The trail is designed for all ages, young and not so young, but as you wander along the different paths you will have to keep your eyes peeled if you are going to see all the animals that live in this magical world. 

New for this year is an accompanying story/colouring book, so you can get to know each fairy.  This is part of the fairy pack that we have put together, which includes a map where the fairies have recently been spotted, a pack of colouring pencils, and the all-important ribbon to make a wish at the wishing tree. The fairy pack is available to purchase at the entrance, for £1.50.

Come and enjoy a magical day with us, and see if you still believe in fairies!

We are delighted to welcome once again our quartet-in-residence, the Franco-Mendes Quartet, to perform for us a wonderful programme:

• Josef Suk: Meditation on an old Czech hymn
• Fanny Mendelssohn: Quartet in E flat major
• Franz Schubert: Quintet in C major

For the final piece, the quartet will be joined by Nathan Jackson-Turner.
