Heligan, seat of the Tremayne family for more than 400 years, is one
of the most mysterious estates in England. At the end of the
nineteenth century its thousand acres were at their zenith, but only
a few years later bramble and ivy were already drawing a green veil
over this "Sleeping Beauty". After decades of neglect, the
devastating hurricane of 1990 should have consigned the Lost Gardens
of Heligan to a footnote in history.

executions by hanging until 1862, 55 in total!
This mid-Victorian prison was also home to the Crown Jewels, Doomsday
book and other national treasures during the Great War.
The prison's dramatic and ominous history has brought it to the
attention of many paranormal investigations and was recently a
location for the popular Living TV's Most Haunted.

years of torture and punishment which took place in this dark and

sunny day is a breathtaking experience. Along with the theatre, there
is a colourful garden to gaze upon. Performances are still held here
(please check website), and it is best to bring a cushion to make the
event more comfortable!

The Tate St Ives
Artists have been coming to work in St Ives since the nineteenth
century. From the 1880s onwards, Newlyn, St Ives and the west
Cornwall hinterland were firmly on the map as destinations for
artists seeking a quasi-communal way of living and working. Tate St
Ives presents modern and contemporary art, often created in or
associated with Cornwall. Its location in St Ives, with dramatic
views across the town and harbour to the east and Porthmeor Beach to
the north, provides a unique opportunity to view work in the
surroundings in which, in many cases, it was actually created. The
displays at Tate St Ives change regularly, allowing a different
selection from Tate's extensive collection of St Ives art to be shown
each year.

water without getting wet.
One of the major exhibits is a replica of the very first submarine.

oared, underwater rowing machine has to be seen to be believed and is
the beginning of a journey through time focusing on the advancement
of technology in submarines and submersibles.

artifacts, this exhibit shows the truth behind shipwreck and the
challenges of salvage.

Castledore
Castledore is situated on the Lostwithiel to Fowey road, the B3269,
just before the left turning in to Golant. Evidence from excavation
suggests that the site was occupied from about 100BC. At first it is
understood that there was an open village of rectangular huts but
later defense walls about 3 metres high and two ditches more than
three metres deep were created. The site is one of the highest in the
area at 126 metres above sea level.
Castledore was known as a palace of Cornish Kings. The name has been
said to refer to the golden colour of the gorse that still grows on
the site today.
A decisive battle in the civil war was fought at Castledore on 31st
August 1644. King Charles had been pushing the parliamentarians
further west and loyalists in the extreme west were marching
eastwards. The parliamentary forces made a stand but were routed and
surrendered the following day.

famous architect, John Nash, for the Trevanion family. Building work
started in 1807 and was completed by 1810. The surrounding parkland
and woodland gardens were created originally from the discoveries of
the plant hunters in China shortly after the turn of the 20th
century. Since then a great deal of hybridisation work and especially
the creation of the first x williamsii camellias has taken place at
Caerhays to create the extensive woodland gardens which visitors can
admire and enjoy today.
