A historic region renowned for its idyllic countryside, striking coastline and fascinating attractions, Cornwall's reputation as one of the UK's most popular staycation destinations is well-deserved. Cornwall's rich heritage is on display at Tintagel Castle, a medieval structure said to be the birthplace of King Arthur. The ancient granite moorland Bodmin Moor is home to great walking trails, some megalithic monuments and Cornwall's highest peak, Brown Willy. Beach lovers should head to Bude, a famous surfing destination, Newquay, another surfing mecca with vibrant nightlife, and St. Ives, which boasts an excellent branch of the Tate Gallery. Mevagissey is a photogenic fishing village, and Davidstow is the home of Cheddar cheese. Finally, don't miss The Eden Project (near St. Austell), a space-age series of domed structures forming one of the largest greenhouses in the world.
