About Carnglaze Caverns

Three enormous slate caverns carved from the hillside above the Fowey valley during centuries of slate quarrying, Carnglaze's cathedral-like chambers are of extraordinary scale and beauty. The deepest contains an underground lake of impossibly clear, pale blue water, and the acoustics of the main chamber make it a popular venue for concerts. Few attractions in Cornwall are as otherworldly.

The National Nature Reserve protecting the woodland has one of the best surviving examples of upland Atlantic oakwood in Cornwall — lichens, mosses and ferns of rare quality carpet the boulders and trees in every shade of green.

Dozmary Pool

natural

A remote and wind-swept pool on the heart of Bodmin Moor, Dozmary is steeped in Arthurian legend — it is one of several places claimed as the lake into which Sir Bedivere threw Excalibur as Arthur lay dying. Once thought to be bottomless, it is in fact quite shallow, but the atmosphere of the moor around it — especially in winter — remains genuinely unearthly.
