      Been to Eden and Kew, like both :)

      Really need a couple of days for Eden so if they still do it, get your ticket stamped so you can get back in for free :)

      I've been to both, I much prefer Kew because it's less crowded. The Eden Project is just too over packed for me and a bit too artificial which I suppose is part of it's basic idea.

      Yes but you'll be very lucky to find a space. I've parked in side roads nearby within a 10-15 minute walk.

        Have been to all 3 and you can't really compare them as they have unique features. I was hugely impressed by the Eden project, loved Heligan and Kew is a superb day out (can't wait to see the revamped glasshouse). Definitely get the card stamped to go back.
        Many moons ago I did a weeks deployment training squaddies at Penhale just up the road from Eden and impressed the socks off them by doing a dramatic departure from the training ground in a chinook; we buzzed Eden just after :)

          When I went last year, they were still doing this. If you get the right ticket for the same price you can go back again within a year.
