Days out this Autumn

Conor Fletcher

Cornwall has a lot to offer those staying throughout the year, but especially during the autumnal period when the heat of summer has passed us by. Rain or shine, there is so much to explore when Cornwall gets that little bit quieter and the weather still accommodates adventures out into the depths of the county. Here's a few picks if you're looking for places to visit this coming autumn.

Tehidy Country Park

With the warmth of summer easing off there has never been a more refreshing venue to visit than Tehidy, the country park has over nine miles of country path for you to explore in relative tranquillity. The peaceful venue was once owned as part of the Bassett estate; one of the wealthiest families in Cornwall, but today has become a country park for the public to explore the woodland and soak in the countryside.

Tremenheere Gardens

It cannot be overstated what a wonderful picture of Cornwall that Tremenheere Sculpture Gardens gives you, a fantastic blend of art and nature all overlooking Mount's Bay. With a restaurant open daily there's little reason to venture too far away as you spend the entirety of your day here in one of Cornwall's more picturesque venues.

Camel Valley Vineyard

A short drive from St Ives through to Bodmin is Camel Valley's vineyard, a family owned vineyard since 1989.
