Visiting Cornwall

Visiting Cornwall - Carn Galver

 

Lots of people contact the Cornwall Moth Group to say they are coming here on holiday, asking us the best places to visit and where to stay in Cornwall.

There is so much to do here and so many lovely places to stay in Cornwall that we have decided to compile a section of our web site to help you choose.

I have selected some of the things that I think visitors might be interested in and invited local business to advertise.

There are only a few things in this section at the moment but if you have any suggestions or if you would like to advertise your business here, please contact our Web Manager for more information.

Grey seals of the West country

In this book, Stephen Westcott, known as "Cornwall's Seal Man", shares with us his explorations, his fascination and his concern about the grey seals and their world.  He wrote the book to help fund the research of the Seal Group into the lives and habits of the seal.
