Things to Do

There are plenty of things to do locally, and the whole of Cornwall with its spectacular coastline, magnificent scenery and beaches is within comfortable motoring distance. A short walk from the cottage is Porfell Animal Land, with many exotic animals.

Looe remains one of the busiest fishing ports in Cornwall, and offers safe sandy beaches and quaint whitewashed buildings, cobbled lanes and good restaurants. Coarse fishing, shark fishing, golf, riding and watersports can all be found nearby.

The new acclaimed Eden Project is only 15 minutes away, where the majestic rainforests, the Mediterranean, South Africa and California are recreated in huge covered conservatories, or Biomes, to tell the fascinating story of mankind's dependence on plants.

The nearby small villages of Lerryn and Lanreath give a taste of country life, with welcoming inns and friendly tea rooms for the traditional Cornish Pasties and Cream Teas.

Exploring is easy! Walk the Cornish Coastal Path and find secluded little coves and beaches, or visit Fowey, Polperro and Looe (famous for shark and deep sea fishing), with their quaint narrow streets and many good restaurants.

There are numerous beautiful gardens and National Trust Houses in the area. Truro is only 35 miles and Plymouth 25 miles away, both cities provide excellent shopping facilities.
