BBC - Holiday - Destinations - Cornwall: "A short bike ride away from the farmhouse is Cornwall's newest and most exciting attraction - the Eden Project. It's a masterpiece of engineering, a complex hidden away in an old clay pit. Covering the size of 35 football pitches, some of the roof panels of the biodomes are larger than a London taxi. Inside is a giant global garden; climates and plants range from the Tropics to South Africa, and from the Med to California. Guides and storytellers provide information about the project.

Tip: if you come later in the day you can avoid the queues. You can buy fast track tickets in advance from the local tourist information centres."
