Caerhays Castle (translation of caerhays into English: "enclosed castle") (alternate: Carhayes Castle) is a semi-castellated manor house located 0.5 mi (0.80 km) south of St Michael Caerhays, a village in Cornwall, England. It is situated overlooking Porthluney Cove on the English Channel. The castle garden hosts the largest collection of magnolias in England and contains one of four National Magnolia Collections under the auspices of the National Council for the Conservation of Plants and Gardens.After Bettesworth-Trevanion left for Paris, unable to pay his bills, Michael Williams II purchased Caerhays from creditors in 1854. As the house had been unoccupied for over a decade and had not been watertight for some of that time, Williams, with his son John, initiated an extensive repair program. John Williams died in 1880 and his son, John Charles Williams, then age 18, inherited the estate. He married in 1884, at which time the house again went through restoration and alteration.
