Spook-tacular party at Trelawney Wadebidge
 

Trelawney@Wadebridge, which is located in Sladesbridge near Wadebridge, is hosting a Halloween party in its Carriages Restaurant on Friday, October 31 from 4pm.

Helen Symons, who runs the restaurant at the garden centre, explained: “We’re giving all the family a chance to celebrate Halloween with us this year.

“Children and adults are invited to don their scariest outfits for the party and take part in our contest and there will be prizes for the best dressed adult and child.

“In addition to this, there will be a selection of fun Halloween-themed games such as, apple bobbing and pin the wart on the witch.”

Entry to the Halloween party at Trelawney@Wadebridge costs £6

Helen added: “During the party we will also be offering a selection of Halloween horrors in the restaurant, which are included in the entry price.

“Children will get a spooky tea box and adults can tuck in to a Halloween-themed high tea.”

One of Cornwall’s largest and leading independent garden centres, Trelawney@Wadebridge was originally launched in 1970 as a nursery by Frank and Marion Danning. The garden centre is now run by their son David and David Symons, who started working for the family at the age of 11.

The garden centre provides customers with a wide range of quality gardening products including plants, furniture, barbecues, gifts and food items. Its friendly and knowledgeable staff are on-hand to give visitors help and advice on all gardening matters. There is also a garden building and Elite Spa concession on-site. 

Carriages Restaurant, which seats up to 240 customers, is situated next to the lake at Trelawney@Wadebridge. It serves hot and cold drinks, snacks, cakes, breakfasts, lunches, a daily carvery and children’s meals.

The award-winning, family-run business includes two generations of the Danning and Symons families. More than eight years ago the company launched a sister garden centre in North Devon, Trelawney@Ashford and is opening its third garden centre Trelawney@Probus on a green-field site in Cornwall next year (2015).

Trelawney@Probus looks set to offer visitors a chance to see plants and products in action with garden areas on-site showing how things grow and work.

For more information call Trelawney@Wadebridge, which is located just off the A389 in Sladesbridge near Wadebridge, on 01208 893030 or visit www.trelawney.co.uk.
