Lostwithiel is a pretty town nestling in the Fowey River Valley, known as the antique capital of Cornwall. Originally founded by the Normans. The streets, lanes and Medieval bridge of this historic town brings you upon Restormel Castle, which was home to the Norman lords who built Lostwithiel. St Bartholomew’s Church with it’s 13th Century octagonal lantern spire and stunning carved font is a delight. The Museum which is housed in the old Corn Exchange has many exhibits covering history over the last 200 years. Or an unusual experience is the former court house Shire Hall, now beckons her visitor to become a member of the jury in a courtroom trial from the 19th Century. Perhaps a sedate round of golf in wooded countryside, or game of tennis or even swimming, all can be enjoyed at the Golf and Country Club. Or visit the Farm Museum in the hamlet of St Winnow. Lanhydrock House is an impressive Tudor Mansion built in 1630 where you can tour around this interesting house and experience 49 rooms both above and below stairs. The ‘Long gallery’ has a carved plaster ceiling depicting scenes from the Old Testament, all set within 22 acres of gardens.
