This is a must visit gift shop! We visit several times every time we are on holiday in Cornwall. During covid lockdowns, I have also bought from them through their Facebook/Instagram pages. Nothing is too much effort for this team and they send over details of any products you are interested in, always replying promptly and once items are purchased, they are always received within days in the post. The glass artwork is absolutely stunning, and obviously the glass ‘Bob’! Well done and thank you for adapting your business during covid so that we can still purchase your items for special celebration gifts from the other end of the country!

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 83 reviews
Trevena Cross is a nursery and garden centre based in West Cornwall. We have extensive undercover (and outdoor) space dedicated to the huge variety of fabulous plants, which we don’t just sell across the three acre garden centre, but grow ourselves, across 32 acres of nursery, also on the site. For those less ‘green fingered’, there is also a large gift department – one of the biggest in West Cornwall – full of beautiful things for the home, special friends, family, and little ones, as well as the The Garden Kitchen Cafe – the perfect place to stop and refuel with a cuppa, meal or naughty treat!

We were killing time on the stormy weekend and stopped for lunch. Staff were friendly and the food we had, soup,omelette and another soup was homemade and well prepared. The chocolate was interesting to see and delightful to taste. We had a look at the glass workshop and the art centre and everyone was lovely and there was a range of bespoke gifts
