"Cornwall has the castle ruins of its most famous icon, the legendary King Arthur, and those wind-swept headlands so vividly described by the late Cornwall-based writer Daphne du Maurier. But it also features remnants of mines that once produced most of the world's copper and tin, country estates open for touring, lush public gardens, palm trees, gentle swimming coves and river estuaries and one of the most unusual theaters in Britain.
