Special Spots in Cornwall for a Magical Weekend Retreat

Are you planning a special weekend away but haven’t settled on a location yet? Although Cornwall is quick to recognize that it is surely one of the best places in the UK to visit, it’s always good to get an outsider’s perspective! With such a lot to see and do across the region, it’s certainly true that you’ll never be bored if you do visit the southwestern tip of the Great British Isles. To show you what we mean, we’ve collected some of the most magical experiences you could have in Cornwall with your beloved into this handy list. So have a look through, and if you’re impressed, book your stay at a Cornish retreat today.

Trebah Garden

In the small parish area of Mawnan Smith, you’ll find Trebah Garden, a secret valley that is sure to delight you if you are willing to seek it out. Within the valley, you’ll find sub-tropical plants and trees and at the bottom of the valley is the Helford River. If you’re lucky enough to visit when the weather is good, you can sit out on the small beach by the river and sunbathe, or if you have kids with you, you could visit the adventure playground. The Garden is open all year round.

Land’s End

If you want the best Land’s End experience you could possibly have, you should avoid what the guidebook tells you to do and instead drive to Sennen beach, park there, and then walk the gentle half hour stroll along the cliffs, taking in the gorgeous views as you go. Alternatively, drop down to the glorious beach, nip to the surf shop and hit the waves together! After your sightseeing, sit back, enjoy a good book or the pleasure of your company, and have an ice cream – you’ve earned it.

Lost Gardens of Heligan

Finally, for something perhaps even more magical, visit the Lost Gardens of Heligan. This was the first project by Eden Project designer Tim Smit, and covering over 200 acres, you’ll be sure to have a once in a lifetime experience here. With restored Edwardian fruit trees, veg gardens, spooky caves and secret ancient pools, you’ll understand what makes this place so special.

So if you’re looking for reasons to book a short retreat in Cornwall, hopefully these three delightful Cornish attractions are enough to get you excited. Book your stay today and visit these magical Cornish wonders.
