There
are many attractions nearby which will enthral you from the
Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan to the quaint havens
which dot the coastline.
Charlestown is a working harbour now mostly used for filming
period pieces such as the Three Musketeers, Treasure Island, The
Eagle has Landed and Apocalyptho to mention just a few. |

Charlestown is home to replica sailing ships which can be visited
and trips can also be taken during the season.
The area is steeped in history, smuggling was a major income
for some of the locals in a bygone age and
wreckers lured unwary captains onto the rocks.
Tin Mining
played a big part in the local economy as well as fishing,
many of the engine houses still dot the landscape. |
The Heritage Centre and Shipwreck museum is located in the
village a stone's-throw from the guest house.
Nowadays the leisure trade is vital to Cornwall and many businesses
have sprung up to cater for the annual influx of visitors, so even if the weather does not entice you to the beach there
are always plenty of other attractions to keep the family
occupied.
We look forward to seeing you and hope you enjoy
the great holiday atmosphere of Cornwall.
