Entertainment & Activities
There are so many places to enjoy in Mid Cornwall and staying in Lostwithiel offers many brilliant days out without travelling too far, which will suit all the family. If you are feeling energetic there is kayaking and cycling available, or perhaps a wander around the fabulous Eden Project, (or my personal favourite) Lanhydrock House and Gardens only 3 miles away from the cottage.
The Eden Project is a popular visitor attraction only 6 miles from the cottage. Inside the two biomes are plants that are collected from many diverse climates and environments. The project is located in a reclaimed china clay pit. Great for learning and activities for adults and children. A must visit whilst in Cornwall.

Carnglaze Caverns is an underground experience and consists of 3 man made caverns formed as part of a slate quarry. The 1st was a Rum store used by the Royal Navy in the Second World War and has now been converted into an unusual auditorium with seating for 400 and hosts various performances. The lowest cavern has a lake. It is a constant 10 degrees Celsius, so a jumper is advisable even on the hottest of days and sensible footwear.

This place is absolutely beautiful, a must see just because of the sheer effort that has been put into restoring it to its former glory. The gardens have different themes and lots of activities for children. There is a little rope bridge where you can cross from one side of the garden to another. The different colours of the flowers and plants are amazing with a stunning walled garden. The cafe serves great food too.

Shopping
If you are looking for a day out with 'High Street' style shopping you'll need to travel to Truro City for a day. This is where you'll find the nearest M&S, Debenhams, Waitrose, Primark etc. If you are travelling by car I highly recommend using the Park and Ride. It's not only cheaper but so convenient and takes the stress out of finding a car parking space in the city centre. Or you could jump on the train from Lostwithiel Station!
If you fancy a day shopping Truro is our Capital Cornish city. It's clean and cobbled streets boasts lots of little shops, markets and all the regular High Street names. Lots of restaurants and cafes and you could visit the centrally situated beautiful Cathedral t'oo.
