St Nectans Glen

This charming natural wonder site at Saint Nectan’s Glen is situated where the River Trevillet has delicately carved its way through the swathes of Late Devonian slate and naturally created a splendid 60 waterfall! Over time this itself formed a hole through the original basin where the clear and sparkling waters now cascade into a beautiful valley, stunning to behold and wonderful for family photo backdrops.

Rare specimens of plants make this a recognised Site of Special Scientific Interest, which you can have a good think about in the meditation room!

Please note that at the time of updating this listing (summer 2015) there are daily works going on as part of the path maintenance scheme and this is apparently very loud.
