This is lovely. My parents took me here when I was 10. I loved it. I've had a fasination with Castle's ever since.

although cornish born and bred, it hs taken me until now (aged 53) to visit the mount, with my son and his financee. wish I'd gone sooner, it really is a special and magical place. Heron and egret feed along the causeway at low water too!
