St Austell is one of Cornwall’s bustling towns famed for it’s mining past, and in the 18th Century for the discovery of China Clay, which changed the town forever. A visit to the Wheal Martyn China Clay Museum is a true insight into the history of this industry, housed in a Clay Works with interesting exhibits and even a working water wheel. Of course no visit would be complete without seeing the ‘Eden Project’ with it’s unusual landscape of the Biomes. St Austell Brewery originally founded in 1851, is the biggest brewery in Cornwall, why not take a tour and see the production of ales, made to a Medieval recipe and of course tasting… St Austell’s Port is an enchanting harbour built in 1791, the Georgian architecture and old fishermen’s cottages is an absolute painters delight, the haunting sight of tall ships with their masts and rigging turns back the pages of time, or perhaps a visit to the Shipwreck and Heritage Centre which has over 200 years of Fishing and Mining on Offer. With The Lost Gardens of Heligan, the curved sandy bay, and coves ,shops, bars and restaurants St Austell is like a wide smile, it pleases everyone.
