Eden Project

The Eden Project is a large ticketed visitor attraction at Bodelva, near St Austell in mid Cornwall. It was built in a former china clay pit and is home to the Rainforest and Mediterranean Biomes. Well-behaved dogs on leads are welcome throughout its 20 acres of outdoor gardens and inside selected buildings, including the Biome Kitchen, the Core building and the Core Cafe.

The outdoor gardens hold more than 3,000 plant varieties along miles of paths. Dogs can also go inside the Core, which houses the Invisible Worlds exhibition and the Extinction: Renewal art exhibition, on until 19 September 2027. The Biome Kitchen, Eden's main catering outlet, and the Core Cafe both welcome dogs inside. Dog drinking stations, waste bins and dog-friendly ice cream are available around the site, and there is no extra charge for bringing a dog.

Pet dogs are not allowed in the indoor Biomes, at Eden Sessions or in children's play areas, so groups wanting to see the Biomes need to take turns while someone stays outside with the dog. Dogs must stay on a lead and on the paths and must never be left unattended. Assistance dogs are welcome across the whole site. Visitor parking on site is free, with a park and ride bus to the entrance at peak times. Motorhomes can park during a visit, but overnight parking is not permitted.
