Cornwall 4/5 is half asleep and half awesome. Some places are desolate and depressing while others are desolate and unforgettable. Let's start with Land's end which is possibley in the top 5 places on earth...except (holy guacamole Batman!) they built a run down amusement park with crap rides...right on a world heritage site! The place should be blown up and the perpetrators hung. Nearby penzance is a cute town with a nice michelin restaurant called the Abbey. Nearby is a miraculous outdoor theatre called Minnicks (5/5) which is cut into the rocks over the ocean. This must be the nicest place on earth to see a show. Then on to St Ives...beautiful fishing village full of artists and pubs and the great Tate museum in a converted power station over the ocean. Up the coast is Penzance which is an upscale St Ives with the legendary "Seafood" restaurant (5/5). This place is worth the trip. Then play golf next door at St Endoc (4/5) with the 80 ft sand trap but bring lot's of balls. Finally on to King Arthur's castle in Tingatel (4/5). This is a paradise to walk around. On your way out of Cornwall stop at Dartmouth (5/5) which is the prettiest sailing village in Britain (and the world?)..with a world famous restaurant called the carved angel 4/5.
