聖ヒラリーの湖・トップ12

A lovely National Trust property, with a fantastic walk through the estate leading to the sea.

For me, St. Ives is one of the most idyllic places on Cornwall's coast. Here you will not only find shops, pubs and nice cafés, but also many small art galleries.

A picturesque little place.

A great place that is occasionally admired in Rosamunde Pilcher films.

On Saturday mornings, Penrose becomes the venue of West Cornwall's Parkrun with around 200 runners each week completing the 5km course. The running route follows the old Victorian carriageway through woodland and parkland with views of Loe Pool and beyond. At that time it is very busy.

This is a nice combination. From Loe Baar you have a view of the sea on one side and a view of a freshwater lake on the other. This allows you to walk completely around the lake.

Loe Bar was originally the mouth of the River Cober which led to a harbor at Helston. However, by the 13th century the bar had cut Helston off from the sea and formed the lake. Loe Bar consists largely of chert deposits, although it is not certain where this comes from as the nearest source is more than 200 kilometers away. There is also a reasonable amount of sand.

Mousehole (Cornish: Porthenys) is a village and fishing port in Cornwall. It is about 4 km south of Penzance on the shore of Mount's Bay. An islet called St Clement's Isle lies about 350m offshore from the harbor entrance.
