Stride out on wonderful walks along mighty cliffs, across brooding moorland, through silent woods. Discover maritime museums and historic houses. Enjoy it all!

Start your Cornish voyage of discovery in the beautiful surroundings of Newquay harbour. Head off to the nearby Blue Reed Aquarium to explore Cornwall’s hidden treasures in a dazzling undersea safari through the oceans of the world. Catch your first glimpse of a typical Cornish fishing village at Polperro – picture-postcard scenes of white cottages against a harbour full of bobbing boats – you’ll love it.

Hop on a helicopter from Penzance and be dazzled by the sparkling jewels of the Atlantic – the Isles of Scilly. Stretch out on silver sands, dip into translucent turquoise waters and relax in the perfect peace and total tranquillity of these islands – only five are inhabited. At the Abbey Garden on Tresco find ferns from New Zealand, acacias from Australia and proteas from South Africa. The waters of the Gulf Stream kiss these shores, keeping them warm and encouraging the growth of subtropical plants. Is this really part of Britain?
