8. The Lost Garden If Heligan

The estate of the Tremayne family was lost during WW1 when the gardeners went into the trenches and the garden overgrew covering all entrances hiding the grounds until the hurricane in 1990 uncovered them. It is a very romantic place to visit.

St Ives is a gorgeous town on the coast, where in my opinion you can get the best fish and chips in Cornwall. It is also the best place to get candy rock to take home for your friends and family.

10. Paradise Park
