Short drive to Fowey - definitely worth the visit. You have to park in the carpark at the top of the hill and either walk down or catch the little bus, but it's well worth it. It's a very 'boaty' area and there are some good restaurants to eat in overlooking the estuary with the yachts all bobbing about. Great chandlery there too - don't know why - I've always liked going in them. Crantock just west of Newquay is great - head up the 3058 and hang a left at the main roundabout just before Newquay itself. Crantock beach is lovely - you can get a little putt-putt ferry across the River Gannell if the tide's in which drops you on the headland above Newquay. Be sure to visit the Bowgie Inn in the evening and enjoy watching the sun go down over the beach - great food last time I was there too. If you fancy a bit of exercise, drive up to Wadebridge and hire a couple of bikes and head out along the Camel Trail. Still on the north coast, you can book a few sailing lessons at one of the many schools in Rock (a ferry ride over the estuary from Padstow). You should, of course, check out Eden - bought I wouldn't bother with Lands End - horrendously expensive and singularly crap amusement park there these days. Truro's well worth a visit - some excellent shops there and good eateries.

I agree Cornwall has got to be a must. Lands End when you get thru all the amusement park bit is spectacular, but so is the Lizard. St Just in Roseland is pretty, Vereyan and the round houses where the devil can't hide Seasidey Looe where you cant buy the crab lines, hours of cheap enterainment. St Austell is a good choice to stay. hope you have a brilliant holiday My dad used to live in Looe.

H i check out the Lost Gardens Of Heligan near Mevagissy Home of the Tremayne Family the gardens were left unattended and forgotten when most of the gardeners were called up to fight in the first world war sadly most never returned but the gardens were rediscovered by accident in the 1980s and gradually restored check out the walled gardens and the lost valley sorry to sound like a tourist brochure enjoy your vacation
