Tregenna Castle Estate’s fortunate location affords quick and easy access to some of the country’s most varied and famous tourist attractions.

St. Michaels Mount, imprisoned for two thirds of its life by water, with a history of sea battles, giants and folklore.

For those culture vultures, a visit to Cornwall is only complete with a pilgrimage to the utterly unique Minack Theatre. An open air theatrical venue perched and built into the cliffs of the beautiful Porthcurno, surely the most stunning backdrop in any theatre across the world. The Minack is open throughout the extended summer season hosting plays, opera, children’s plays and dance.

Cornwall has long been a cultural centre for the creative industries; associated with famous names such as Virginia Woolf, Bernard Leach, Barbara Hepworth,
Walter Richard Sickert, James McNeill Whistler, Ben Nicholson and Peter Lanyon. Such has been the draw of St. Ives over the decades that the Tate Gallery decided to create a new and dramatic gallery and exhibition space in the heart of the village, an insitution that lends itself to the continued vibrancy of the arts in Cornwall.

Myth and magic become reality with the fabled home of King Arthur in Tintagel, tales of pirates and smugglers and folklore of big cats sightings and mysterious happenings at Land’s End.

Undoubtedly the best thing to come out of the Millennium Fund is the Eden Project. The rightful Eighth Wonder of the World is visited by people from across the world throughout the year. The Eden Project’s commitment to continued development and education sees 2005 beginning on the next phase of its journey with the opening of its educational centre. If you’ve seen it once, see it again, it just grows and grows!

And don’t forget, Cornwall’s extraordinarily mild climate throughout the year has blessed the area with equally extraordinary sub-tropical gardens. Visit the famous Trebah and Trelissick Gardens and discover for yourself the long lost Gardens of Heligan. A vast and secret garden hidden from sight for over 70 years until re-discovered and restored back to their original splendour in 1991.
