Lands End is the most westerly point
in mainland Britain, and the most visited outdoor tourist attraction
in Cornwall. Lots for all the family to see and do. Lands End has
rugged wave lashed cliffs, stunning views, the Longships Lighthouse
and Wolf Rock off shore, the Isles of Scilly in the distance. America
is 2500 miles away across the Atlantic Ocean.
At Land's End, a modest charge is made for car parking. Entrance
to the complex is free. There are individual entrance fees to the
numerous attractions, giving the visitor independence of choice.
Land's End has something for everyone, whatever the weather. |

St Michaels Mount is situated on an
island 500 yards from the Cornish coast at Marazion less than 2 miles
along the coast from Lombard House Hotel. It once had a chapel built
by Edward the Confessor under the jurisdiction of the Abbey. The Island
can be reached at low tide by walking across its causeway. At times
when the causeway is covered by the tide there is a ferry that carries
visitors to and from the island. It is thought that St.Michaels Mount
has been associated with Christianity since the 5th century and has
been associated by some with Roman Ictis. |
Between the town centre and sea front lie the Morrab
Gardens - three acres of renowned sub-tropical gardens which
are home to a surprising variety of plants, shrubs and trees which
thrive in the mild climate. Some of the plants grown for over a century
here include magnolias, camellias, tree ferns, palm trees, and banana
plants.
Close to the Morrab Gardens is the Penlee Memorial
Park where fifteen acres of open parkland host a small open
air theatre, tennis courts, children's play area, an adventure park
and a football field. Located within the Penlee Park grounds is the
Penlee House Gallery & Museum. |
