Eden Project & Charlestown
Visit the Eden Project, - once a barren landscape - a former clay mine with no soil or plants. It has been transformed into a beautiful global garden, which sets the stage for an extraordinary day out where you'll rediscover the natural world as you've never experienced it before. Explore massive covered Biomes to trek through the world's largest indoor rainforest and immerse yourself in the calm fragrance of the Mediterranean Biome. Enjoy extensive Outdoor Gardens, contemporary artworks, performance and storytelling. Discover places to rest, play and eat, and pick up inspiring ideas to take home on how to care for the planet that cares for you
Spend the whole day at the Eden Project or choose to go onto Charlestown, film location of Poldark and home to the Shipwreck Treasure Museum. NB Museum subject to seasonal opening and may not be open at the time of your visit. The Historic Port of Charlestown, a UNESCO World Heritage site and you'll also find some artisan shops, pub, restaurants and two beautiful beaches waiting to be discovered.
Fowey, Polperro & Cornish Coast
Start the day in the resort of Fowey, designated an area of outstanding natural beauty. With a natural harbour, it is a haven for yachtsmen and over the last few years Fowey has become a popular destination for passing cruise liners. The village of Polperro squeezes down the valley to a small harbour where tiny fisherman's cottages and sail lofts hang off the rocks. You can wander through the narrow streets and browse the shops full of handicrafts. (The main parking area is approximately 1/2 mile from the harbour - a gentle slope on the way down but of course, uphill on the way back up)
Day 4 Head back home today after breakfast with a comfort stop en-route for refreshments
