About
Leave the car behind and come explore some of the most beautiful scenery in the UK with Chris in his vintage taxi. It's not just pretty; it's an incredibly old landscape, and its history goes back beyond the dawn of civilization. We don't just concentrate on ancient history; we discover what part of North Cornwall plays in today's modern world and in the security of the nation. We visit forgotten castles; you'll hear of legends and heroes; you'll marvel at awe-inspiring scenery, and you'll learn to dowse.

A gentle stroll of about a mile brings us to the smallest property owned by The National Trust. Built entirely of driftwood by The Rev R.S.Hawker, he spent many hours here inspired in his writings by the magnificent coastline.

An absolutely fascinating place to visit, this airfield saw action in WW2 and was used as a formula one racing circuit post war.
The Cornwall at War Museum is also well worth a visit.

Stannon Moor prehistoric relics circular walk
We visit Stannon stone circle. Standing alone on the desolate moor for centuries, its purpose long forgotten. But you'll learn to dowse here, and questions can be asked of the dowsing rods. What will you discover?
