Visit the official Information Centre in Bodmin, Cornwall, for things to do, events, tickets, travel, locally produced gifts and much more... Situated in the Shire Hall, our building is fascinating in its own right...the Information Centre is based inside what was a former Assize Court...many of the original features can still be seen including the Judge’s Bench and the Jury Box...and you can’t help but wonder how it would have been in Victorian times, when the Shire Hall was built. The Information Centre staff are very friendly and love to help; it is a multi award winning service, and the staff want to ensure you receive platinum service. :) So do come in and see us. We’d love to welcome you to Bodmin.

With the help of a generous grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund, Trinity House renovated the Engine Room at Lizard Lighthouse, retaining some of the old engines. It now also features new exhibition material, an audio visual room and a number of interactive displays. The Lizard Lighthouse Heritage Centre was officially opened in 2009 by HRH The Princess Royal. The distinctive twin towers of Lizard Lighthouse mark the most southerly point of mainland Britain. See displays depicting Trinity House's history, housed in the original engine room. It was commissioned in 1752. For over 250 years, the lighthouse has provided a welcoming landfall light to vessels crossing the Atlantic Ocean. Tours of Lizard Lighthouse are organised under licence from the Corporation of Trinity House.

We decided to visit the lizard lighthouse and what a fantastic day out it was. The exhibition hall was great with plenty to do and to read. And plenty of games and fun for children. We done the guided tour of the lighthouse tower with Caroline who has been a lighthouse keeper at the station since 2007 she could answer any questions I had and more everything about the tour was in-depth and well explained. Definitely worth a visit. Cheap day out and loads to do.
