DETAILED OVERVIEW
ITINERARY
Sunday 14 March
We depart the local area with stops on route for coffee and lunch before arriving at Lanhydrock Hotel mid-afternoon ready to settle in and get acquainted with the facilities at the hotel before dinner.
|Monday 15 March
This morning we visit The Eden Project. With three climatic zones and over a million plants, Eden never fails to provide anything less than a jaw-dropping horticultural extravaganza. In the afternoon we travel to Fowey, a delightful harbour town which has become popular with the rich and famous for their holiday homes.
|Tuesday 16 March
Today we visit the seaside town of Looe, the town has a collection of narrow streets lined with shops, cafes and pubs that lead through to the main town beach. The beautiful beach is bordered by the Banjo pier on the west, the entrance to the main harbour and by a rocky promontory to the east. Over the years, the town has retained its small fishing fleet, which return at high tide, to off load their catch alongside the riverside quay at the busy fish market, which dominates the town's East Quay.
|Wednesday 17 March
This morning we visit Trelissick Gardens (NT), which is set on its own peninsula, with panoramic views over the Fal estuary. You can explore the meandering paths through the garden, leading to exotic plants and herbaceous borders bursting with colour. The house has a friendly and inviting atmosphere with a rolling programme of exhibitions that reveal stories from its diverse history. This afternoon we take a short drive into the cathedral city of Truro with time to explore at your own leisure.
|Thursday 18 March
Today we visit The Lost Gardens of Heligan, which just 25 years ago were unknown and unseen; lost under a tangle of weeds. A chance discovery of a door in the ruins led to the restoration of what is now considered to be one of the finest gardens in Cornwall. We return to the hotel via Mevagissey an attractive old town which was once the centre of Cornwall’s pilchard fishery and which still boasts a working harbour, with a few dozen small fishing boats. It has a tradition of boat building dating back to 1745.
|Friday 19 March
After breakfast we will start the journey home, with breaks on route for coffee and lunch, arriving back in the local area early evening.
