More stunning Gardens…

Looking for a day out?
Porthcurno to Cape Cornwall
Porthcurno village is the perfect place to start your day, a place of National interest due to it historically being the centre of world telecommunication in the 19th century. The telegraph museum also resides here.
Porthcurno is the home to the beautiful Minack Theatre, which is an open-air theatre built into the cliffs, where shows run throughout Summer. Just the view alone is enough to bring people from all over the country, and if you’re lucky, you might get to spot basking sharks, fin whales, humpback whales and dolphins.
Leaving Porthcurnow, head to Lands End where the spectacular views continue. Lands End is steeped in history, myths and legends and filled with plenty of activities for children.
After Lands End, head to Sennon, one of Cornwall’s best surfing beaches.
Finally, head to Cape Cornwall, with its captivating and stunning scenery. A photographers paradise.
Penventon to Porthcurno: 50-minute drive.
