Synopsis

This publication divides the county of Cornwall into eight areas, plus the Isles of the Scilly. The author guides readers around all the attractions, events and features, ensuring that both the well known and her own particular personal favourites are visited and understood in the context of Cornwall's development over many centuries. Since the first train entered Cornwall in 1859, the county has been a favourite holiday destination. Despite the pressures of tourism, it has retained its distinctive Cornish characteristics. The text is written in the form of itineraries for ease of exploration. Peviously published by Moorland as the "Visitor's Guide to Cornwall", this edition has been updated and extended to include additional material, for example, accommodation details, recommended places to eat, walks and scenic motor drives. The "Landmark FactFile" is a comprehensive listing of attractions and opening times.

About this title

Review

"If you've never used a Landmark Visitors Guide, you're in for a treat. These useful guides give more than a gazetteer-style list of things to see and do. They give background information on an area and its sights. The beautiful colour photographs add interest to the guide and give a taste of what's to come.... Full colour maps in each section show the attractions and the recommended driving routes. With a Landmark Visitors Guide in hand, you don't need to plan your trip. An expert has done it all for you." -- Barbara Ballard
