Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, St Neot is a small, picturesque village sitting on the edge of Bodmin Moor in East Cornwall. Perfectly located for exploring both the North and South Cornish coasts, which can be reached within a half hour’s drive, St Neot also benefits from its proximity to the neighbouring moorlands which offer spectacular walking opportunities.

The village is home to an ancient church famous for its medieval stained glass windows, a cosy dog-friendly pub, a monthly local produce market and many quirky carnivals and festivals throughout the year.

The family-friendly, all-weather Carnglaze Caverns can be found just outside of St Neot and consist of three man-made caverns formed as part of a slate quarry. The caverns can be toured at any time of the year and at a constant 10°C, it is the perfect retreat on a hot summer’s day. The lowest of the caverns has a small lake and the attraction also has 6.5 acres of beautiful woodlands with an Enchanted Dell with faeries, dragons, hobbits and other amazing woodland creatures.

Nearby Liskeard offers lots of local facilities including supermarkets and shops and the town is also home to Kartworld, perfect for the speed demons among you. The Adrenalin Quarry, a flooded disused quarry home to 500m twin parallel zip wires as well as coasteering and a giant cliff top swing, makes for a memorable day out, though it certainly isn’t for the faint hearted!

A holiday cottage in St Neot provides a picturesque base for exploring the moorland, countryside and coastline of South East Cornwall.

Carnglaze Caverns
(Less than a mile)

A family-run business, this underground experience is open all year round for self-guided tours.  Set in Quarry Wood, the 6.5-acre site encompassing ancient woodland and beautiful walks, is also home to three caverns and a spectacularly beautiful underground lake, hand created by slate miners.  There’s a The Terrace Garden and Enchanted Dell for children, The Rum Store for underground concerts and events, and it’s licensed for weddings and civil partnerships.  When you visit, remember The Caverns are at a constant 10°C, so jumpers are a good idea and flip flops are recommended.

We visited on a wet day in February. Truly enjoyed both the caverns and the woodland walk. Loved the little signs on the walk.

February 2022


Have visited this attraction in the past and wished to revisit. Unfortunately we were unable to to book on the same day as visit which prevented us from going, although at this time of year(late September) I doubt it was busy.

September 2021


Totally blown away. The ladies where so knowledgeable and very helpful. A marvellous place to visit x

July 2021


A great visit, staff very approachable and knowledgeable about the history and working of the mine. Woodland walks were an added adventure with fairies and dragons to spot on the way round and keep the kids interested.

August 2020


Easy parking with available toilets. Not too sure about disabled access,though,ok if you can actually walk but not too good if in a wheelchair from what i see. It is an interesting place though. Flash photography is not allowed as there are bats in the caves. The inside is actually quite pleasant and can be wet. Outside there are a a couple of interesting walks,mostly uphill,so be prepared. Its an interesting attraction that will be a couple of hours at least.

September 2019


We all enjoyed our visit here on a rainy day. It was good to see this mine.

Great afternoon beginners riding for our children. Staff helpful and knowledgeable.

August 2020


We had a great morning at Polmartin riding school. The staff were lovely and the horses clearly are lovingly looked after. We even got a postcard of our horses to take home as a souvenir, perfect for my horse mad 10 year old. We will be coming again!

Porfell Wildlife Park
(6 miles)

(2)

Cornwall’s biggest exotic animal sanctuary, Porfell Wildlife Park is a family attraction close to Looe, which has been running since 1989.  It plays home to more than 250 animals from around the world, who have found their way to the sanctuary through neglect, injury, illegal importation or simply because they weren’t wanted.  It’s a chance to get up close to wildlife, feed the animals, touch them and learn all about the natural world. There are woodland walks, a children’s farm, a café, a Maasai village, and you can meet or even adopt the animals that you see.  Opening hours vary, so keep an eye on the website, and prices start at £9.50 for adults and £6.50 for children.

We visited Porfell Wildlife Park on our last day and it was idylic! Being able to buy reasonably priced, bags of food to feed some of the animals and birds was great. We liked the fact that these are not "display" animals but are rescued from parks and zoos that could no longer keep them. Everyone we spoke to there was friendly and helpful and all the animals looked well cared for.

What a great place to visit, everyone really cared about what they were doing here. Highly recommend a visit to anyone
