As predicted earlier in the year, Cornwall is awash with holidaymakers, and the evidence would seem to suggest that they are all having a great time.

Cornwall has countless indoor attractions to enjoy when the weather is less than perfect and they all add something special to the flavour of the holiday.

Two major attractions that spring to mind are the Tate at St. Ives, overlooking the stunning Porthmeor beach.
