Newquay, the Eden Project, Land's End & Penzance

Today we start the day with a trip to Land’s End, the breathtaking headland on the Penwith peninsula, located at the westernmost point of mainland Cornwall. Here, the rugged cliffs rise majestically above the Atlantic Ocean, offering visitors panoramic views that stretch to the horizon.

This iconic landmark is steeped in history and legend, with its name signifying the literal end of the land in Old English. It's a place where the beauty of nature is on full display, from the wildflowers decorating the coastal paths to the dramatic sunsets that paint the sky. It is a truly wonderful sight to behold and an unforgettable experience.

Afterwards, we head to one of the most famous towns in Cornwall. Penzance, nestled in a sheltered position in beautiful Mounts Bay. The town still holds all the charms of a bygone age, with an attractive seafront promenade, sub-tropical gardens and a stunning view of the castle at St Michael’s Mount.

Built into the Cornish countryside, the Eden Project is often described as the Eighth Wonder of the World. With thousands of species of plants to see both indoors and out and a wealth of activities taking place every day, there is always something new to set our eyes on. The aerial walkway affords lovely views over the Rainforest Biome, the largest enclosed rainforest in the world.

Why not join our optional excursion to see another of Cornwall’s highlights? Padstow is a total charmer of a fishing port! Forever synonymous with celebrity chef Rick Stein, who owns a local restaurant, it’s a fab foodie destination. After gorging yourself on a platter of fresh seafood, head to the pretty harbour and gaze out at the boats rolling in. Don’t forget to explore the quirky gift shops, or simply while away the afternoon tucking into a delicious Cornish cream tea in one of the many lovely cafés.
