A beautiful Art Deco lido to be found across the Cornish moors, on the tail of the country. It was reopened on the 25th of May and is celebrating its 75th anniversary. Sat among its whitewashed walls it’s easy to forget which country you are in and equally hard to care. With a poolside café that looks to St. Michaels Mount and the route of the passenger ferries bound for the Scilly isles. I lay at its reopening, eating bread and cheese and imagined I was on Tracey Island.

Open air theatre carved into the clifs near Penzance. Wonderful views of the sea, cliffs and returning fishing boats (especially as it gets dark) all make a spectacular backdrop to great theatre.
Go early in the day to visit Porthcurno beach - amazing.
