Wander along the granite causeway where, legend has it, a giant once roamed and follow in the footsteps of pilgrims. Hop on a boat to an island where modern life mingles with layers of history. Discover a medieval castle, a subtropical paradise, and a close-knit island community. Explore the rich history of a fortress, a priory, a harbor, and a home.
Leave the mainland behind, either by foot or by boat, and get up close to the enchanting beauty of the castle-crowned isle that stands majestically in Mount’s Bay. Arrive for a family adventure, a tour of the castle, or a garden visit. Climb the fairytale turrets for breathtaking views. Enjoy live music on the village green and savor fresh local cuisine at the Island Café or the Sail Loft Restaurant.
Awaken your senses with the vibrant colors and scents in the unique subtropical gardens, which bask in the mild climate and salty breeze. These terraced gardens cling to granite slopes, cascading dramatically down to the ocean's edge. They showcase exotic plants from far-off lands like Mexico, the Canary Islands, and South Africa. Did you know that the unique microclimate of this island allows for a surprising variety of plants to thrive year-round? It's like stepping into another world, one where nature and history coexist in perfect harmony.
