^ooh, definitely dont go to the eden project, I found it really depressing, extremely ugly buildings and shops full of expensive tat...
@Sparky, yes that's the coastal route I used to take, it is my favourite bit of cornwall, it's the most wild and empty. It's not a busy road either, as long as you avoid bank holiday weekends. There is the occasional local maniac in a zouped up renault 5 to look out for though. If you're not pushed for time, it's worth leaving the main road and going down to the sea at St. Just, cape cornwall is very dramatic, often with big seas. It is the point at which the Atlantic and the Irish sea meet. Last time I was there I snapped my rear deraillieur and had a long walk, still managed to paint a picture though. The disused tin mines at Levant, just north of there, are very interesting too, but you might want something tougher than a 23mm road tyre for the coastal path.
