Activities and Attractions
 

Cornwall has a wide variety of quality attractions - from some of the country's finest historic houses to some superb gardens and a range of theme parks and farm attractions which together offer a huge choice of great days out for everyone.

Historic Houses

The great Cornish families have left a legacy of superb historic houses in Cornwall, many of them owned by the National Trust, including Cothele, Lanhydrock and Anthony

Arts & Entertainment

The Cornish environment seems to bring out the creative side of people, a day trip could take you to the Tate at St. Ives, the Hall for Cornwall in Truro, Sterts open air theatre at Upton Cross, Callington Mural Trail or the Theatre Royal in Plymouth, often a test venue for west End productions.

City of Plymouth

The maritime City of Plymouth is across the River Tamar and is home to the award winning National Marine Aquarium.    Plymouth is famous for its association with the Pilgrim Fathers who set sail for the New World in 1620 from the Mayflower Steps on the historic Barbican.

Gardens

Mild winters ensure that many plants, not found in other parts of the U.K. are able to thrive in Cornwall.   The Lost Gardens of Heligan near Mevagissey and the Eden Project near St. Austell are both worth a visit.

Cornish Gardens

Sports & Leisure

There are also a number of golf courses including the "course that Jack built" at St. Mellion, Looe, Bindown and Lanhydrock.   Liskeard sports and leisure centre with swimming pool, squash, indoor bowling, badminton and fitness suite and nearby Siblyback Lake has a windsurfing school and fishing lake.

The Cheesewring

The Countryside

Cornwall has some of the best and most varied countryside in the whole of the South West of England, from the mists of Bodmin Moor, the creeks and valleys of the rivers to the secluded coves, sandy beaches, and rocky outcrops of the coastline in the South.   The area has the highest tree cover of any area in Cornwall with some lovely ancient woodlands to explore.    It also has over 400km of public footpath and with over 47 km of coastline, bordered by the South West Coast Path, there are plenty of opportunities for everyone to explore the countryside.

Walking

Cornwall has a dense network of public footpath rights of way which pass through some of the best countryside in the district.   Many are vere ancient paths which link the old hamlets and villages together, whilst others are little more than paths which stretch across farmers' fields. There are many walks directly from the village.
