St. Just in Roseland Church

Described as one of the prettiest in England, this church sits proudly on the water’s edge amongst sub-tropical trees and shrubs.

Reviewed By 324CarolineS324 - East Sussex, United Kingdom

The churchyard described as ‘the most beautiful in the world’ is just that. A palm filled tropical woodland with green moss and fern it winds down the hill of tiered graves of beautiful calligraphy and Celtic crosses. Wirth taking time to meander through. At the bottom is this small picturesque church steeped in history on the waters edge . So atmospheric and peaceful it was a truly magical setting that made you want to linger soaking in every bit . Truly memorable and a joy to see. Then head on up the slope for a slap up cream tea at Mrs T’s at the top. PERFECT afternoon!

I’ve been following this wonderful gallery after seeing it on Facebook last year and I’m impressed by the quality and range of Artists they represent and how they show the artwork. Yesterday I received a fabulous self-portrait by the late artist Jason Bowyer, beautifully and securely packaged, after only 48 hours of purchasing. All at a distance of 323 miles. I was able to confidently order my first ever online piece of Fine Art due to the exceptional quality of the images on, and the layout of, their website. The entire experience was first class from start to finish and I would highly recommend the personal service of Brian and Judi online. I am making a visit to this gallery a high priority this coming summer.

Circular Cottages

Built in the early 19th century, these thatched circular structures were used to guard the village from evil, since there are no corners where the devil could hide.

Chapel Porth Beach

A little bit of a hike is required to get to this secluded beach, but the trip is well worth it.

Reviewed By chrisaU9872RC - St Agnes, United Kingdom

Low tide or an ebbing tide is the best time to visit, great surfing spot, its an oasis of a Cove with a café toilets and parking. Very busy in the summer phenomenal walk to the next beach at low tide or enjoy a ramble across the cliffs with spectacular views and loads of old mines to explore. as a National Trust Site sadly NO dogs.

Portloe Harbour

Reviewed By SteveStead - New Ash Green, United Kingdom

This is a beautiful little cove but you need to go prepared. Either book a lunch at the Lugger Hotel (can recommend) and use their car park or take your own supplies and leave your car in the village car park and enjoy a picnic lunch from one of the benches on the cliff path with a panoramic view to die for. Take a pair of binoculars, a book to read and a sketchbook with you. If that's not your thing you're in the wrong place!
