Waterproof
jacket – check, shorts – check, alcohol and munchies – check, welly-boots
–check,
eccentric, but endearing in-laws – check!
We arrived in
St Just, our base for the family holiday in Cornwall. St Just is a cute little
coastal
village near Lands End.
Plenty of
things to do around here, nice coastal walks, surfing (if your brave enough for
British
water temperatures), beautiful scenery, relaxing and eating especially
local specialties like
Cornish pasties and cream teas. Yum.
We visited
Eden Project, which is amazing garden paradise with biomes exhibiting tropical
and Mediterranean
climates.
Perfect for
anyone who is currently experiencing the British summer!
St Michael's mount is situated in a stunning location, a medieval castle set on an outcrop of rock
surrounded by the sea on all sides. Only accessible by boat or wading through the water at low
tide which just adds to the mystery and appeal of the place.
Something
definitely worth visiting is the magnificent Minack theatre carved out of the rocks
by one woman and her two gardeners.
As you can
see from the photos it’s literally a theatre on a cliff edge that has survived through
one world war and countless storms thanks to a very dedicated, inspirational
lady.
Creates a
beautiful backdrop for plays that still go on almost every evening regardless
of what
the weather is like.
There is lot
more to explore around here, Will definitely have to come back at some point.
