Close by, we have St. Austell, which is our nearest town, (4 miles), the City of Truro (11 miles), and the famous village and port of Charlestown, known as the film set for the cult television show, Poldark, is just 5.4 miles away.
Step back in time at the Lost Gardens of Heligan; lose yourself in over 200 acres of whimsical gardens; a world of romance, nostalgia and adventure awaits your discovery. Open all year round, this peaceful paradise is just 12 minutes from the park, and perfect for couples or families.
Just 18 minutes away is the world renowned Eden Project! Located in a reclaimed china clay pit, the project is dominated by two huge enclosures consisting of adjoining domes that house thousands of plant species, with each enclosure emulating a natural biome. The larger of the two biomes houses a rainforest environment (and is the largest indoor rainforest in the world) and the second, a Mediterranean environment. It also has an outdoor botanical garden, which is home to many plants and wildlife native to Cornwall and the UK. As well as this, the site holds incredible concerts, seasonal events and magical evenings out too! Being only a short drive away from Meadow Lakes, we recommend everyone make the short journey to see just how beautiful nature is!
