The region’s abundance of vineyards, orchards, and gardens, a testament to the mild climate, includes the spectacular Eden Project and Lost Gardens of Heligan, both within half an hour’s drive. Equidistant is the ancient fishing port of Mevagissey, with its vibrant double harbour showcasing traditional vessels and pleasure craft.
