Attractions around Woodstock Guest House

St Michael’s Mount

This iconic island rises gracefully to the church and castle at its summit. Accessible on foot at low tide across a causeway, at other times it is reached by a short evocative boat trip. The oldest surviving buildings date from the 12th century, when a Benedictine priory was founded here. Following the English Civil War, the island was acquired by the St Aubyn family, who still live in the castle. In the intervening years many additions and alterations were made to convert it for use as a mansion house. Fascinating rooms from different eras include the mid-18th-century Gothic-style blue drawing room.

Land’s End

Just minutes away from Woodstock is Morrab Gardens, an extensive collection of sub-tropical plants have been accumulated over many years. The gardens were created to study of acclimatisation of rare sub-tropical plants, a tradition that continues to this day. The gardens also house a fascinating private library, open to the public with its vast historical collections. Penzance is blessed with many green spaces, including Penlee Park with its own museum and art gallery: Penlee House.

Praa Sands Golf Club

Praa Sands golf club welcomes all visitors and non-members to this lovely seaside course overlooking Mount’s Bay. The course is a nine hole course privately owned by Kate and David Phillips. From every green on the course you can see the sea, and it provides a deceptively challenging Par 62 for men, Par 64 for ladies. It is open all year and no handicap certificate is required. Suitable golfing attire is expected. Meals and bar snacks are available, and all day as is club hire if needed.

West Cornwall Beaches

Whether you are keen for surfing or simply enjoy sitting on a beautiful beach then Cornwall has an abundance of amazing locations. Choose from the historic Penzance promenade or the golden sands of Sennen please ask Jon and Nikki for any hints as to what type of venue best suits your preference.

Places to go

Penzance has many things to see and do, from its beautiful sub-tropical gardens to its busy harbour and picturesque backstreets.

Penzance is the only town in Cornwall with a seafront promenade which runs from the harbour towards Newlyn, a mile or so to the west.

Of course, Cornwall has some of the finest beaches in the country – try the north coast for the best surf and the south coast for the more sheltered beaches.

Minack is an open air theatre perched on the edge of the cliffs at Porthcurno. Shows run throughout the spring and summer – Just bring your own picnic…and don’t forget your cushions!

For years, the quality of the light and the ruggedness of the landscape has drawn artists to Cornwall. St Ives Tate Gallery is the perfect place to view some of the magnificent local art.

The Isles of Scilly are just a short journey by Boat, Plane or Helicopter. This small group of Islands lie about 28 miles off Land’s End and are renowned for their beauty and peaceful atmosphere.

Great days out for families include the Flambards Experience, with its white-knuckle rides, reptile and insect shows and the Victorian Village; visit the Eden Project and enjoy the attractions at Lands End
