Helford Passage (Cornish: Treth Heyl, meaning ferry to Helford) is a village in Cornwall, United Kingdom. It is situated on the north bank of the Helford River opposite Helford approximately five miles (8 km) south-southwest of Falmouth.
The village is in the civil parish of Mawnan: before 1986, it was in Constantine Parish.
A pedestrian ferry operates daily from Easter to October between Helford Passage and Helford
Helford Passage lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Almost a third of Cornwall has AONB designation, with the same status and protection as a National Park.
The gardens at Trebah, the National Trust's Glendurgan Garden, are a short walk away.
Famous quotes containing the word passage:
“So I was glad of the fog’s
Taking me to you
Undetermined summer thing eaten
Of grief and passage where you stay.
The wheel is ready to turn again.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
