MEVAGISSEY

& THE LOST GARDENS OF HELIGAN (FULL DAY) - The charming fishing port of Mevagissey is one of Cornwall's hidden gems and a must-do for everyone. Explore, and you'll find a wealth of gift shops, craft workshops, galleries, cafés, and pubs within its narrow streets. Later, we visit the Lost Gardens of Heligan, with admission included. This 'secret garden' was accidentally re-discovered in 1992 from under decades of tangled weeds. Here you can see the blooming Magnolias displays, colossal rhododendrons and camellias, and the wild 'jungle' before relaxing with a traditional Cornish Cream Tea.

NEWQUAY

(FREE DAY) - You can explore charming Newquay in your own time today. Located on Cornwall's Atlantic Coast, Newquay was voted "one of the nation's favourite seaside towns" in the Which? Magazine Holiday Survey. Newquay's thriving town centre is just a short walk from our hotel, so after a brisk walk on the beach, why not head to Newquay Zoo or the Blue Reef Aquarium?

FALMOUTH & TRURO

(FULL DAY) - This morning, we travel to the bustling seaport of Falmouth, famed for its fresh oysters and seafood. Later, we visit the cathedral city of Truro, the UK's most southerly city. This great little place offers a unique shopping experience and the impressive Truro Cathedral with its gothic towers, which dominate the skyline.

EXETER

(ENROUTE) - Our final stop is the cathedral city of Exeter. Home to the award-winning Royal Albert Memorial Museum, where visitors can explore the city's 2000-year history under one roof, you'll find plenty to explore before we return home.
