A beautiful grand building, which used to be a bank, has been turned in to a stunning modern restaurant. Park in the main Fowey car park and have a lovely evening walk back after dinner.

Right in the centre of Fowey, is this Italian inspired restaurant and bar, hosted by Lyndsey and Andy Appleton (previously head chef for 9 years, of Jamie Oliver's Fifteen, Cornwall). Beautiful fresh pasta, or if you want to rustle up your own Italian feast, try shopping at the deli.

A top day out and just 15 minutes drive away. Awe inspiring. Lots of parking. Wonderful gift shop. Very ecological everything including education! Look out for The Eden Sessions, live bands and performers with this incredible backdrop, in June and July. (Beware, long queues to leave afterwards, but a lot easier than going to the O2!)

These are the most wonderful well laid out gardens, with plenty of spots to sit and ponder, you will return home inspired to make a few additions to your own garden I'm sure. Included in the very reasonable £7 entry cost is a cup of tea or coffee and as many return visits as you would like this year... what's not to like about that! Also available are lots of plants for sale and some pretty tasty homemade cake!

For the avid artist this is worth battling the crowds in St Ives, my top tip is to go by train from Par (there is a change at St Erth) straight to the edge of St Ives, parking in St Ives is not for the feint of heart! Wear walking footwear and walk through the delightful town to the Tate on the other side.
