Directions - Carnglaze Caverns can

best be found off the A38. From

Liskeard, there are brown tourist

signs directing to Carnglaze just

before Trago Mills. From Bodmin

the signs are just past Trago Mills.

From the A30, turn off at the sign

for Colliford Lake and follow the

signs to St Neot. Carnglaze is about a

mile south of the village, on the left.

There is a free on site car park and a

dedicated coach park. (Routes are

highlighted in red on the map above.)

Access ~Due to the nature of the

site, specific areas of the gardens and

the lower caverns have limited access

to some people of lower mobility

and wheelchair users. The first

cavern, The Rum Store, is fully

accessible for all persons, including

wheelchair users, and an adapted

group tour can be offered by prior

arrangement.

Tours Underground - there are three caverns of cathedral

proportions, hand created by local slate miners. During your

tour you will go about 150m into the hillside and 60m below

ground, via a flight of 60 steps. In the lower chambers you will

find the subterranean lake with it’s crystal clear blue/green

water. For much of the year you will be equipped to go on a

self-guided tour of the three caverns but in high season guided

tours may be in operation as there is a limit on numbers

allowed in the lower caverns at one time.

The Caverns are at a constant 10°C, so a jumper and sensible

footwear are recommended.

Walled Garden - our Crystals & Crafts Shop sells a variety of

local crafts, minerals, faeries, fossils & fudge. A booklet on the

history of the Caverns, written by Alan Pascoe, grandson of

the last mine captain, is also available. Picnic tables are available

both undercover and on the lawn. Hot and cold drinks are

avialable at the ticket office. Please help us reduce our carbon

footprint by making use of our recycling and composting

facilities.

Coach Parties & Group Tours – we welcome group

bookings by prior arrangement, including evenings, throughout

the year. Groups of 20 or more, paying as one, attract a 10%

discount. Please ring 01579 320251 for further information on

how to book a group tour

Woodland Walk & Enchanted Dell - set amongst the

wooded hillside at Carnglaze is a magical collection of

limited edition bronze faeries, mushrooms & dragons.

Walk through the terraced garden to see Shanhara and

her friends, where seasonal streams and a waterfall add to

the enchantment. Then follow the woodland path to a

panoramic view of St Neot village before looping back

to the main site: a round walk of approx 25 mins or

longer if you are counting the faeries! In spring the

woodlands have a spectacular carpet of 3 acres of

bluebells and other seasonal wild flowers. The Woodland

Walk is also open on Tuesday evenings during the

flowering of the bluebells for those who would like to

enjoy the early evening perfume at its best.

Dogs - on leads with careful owners are welcome at all

times in all our outdoor areas (due to Health & Safety

dogs are not allowed underground, with the exception of

assistance dogs). Dog waste is composted on site - please

use our biodegradable doggy bags available from shop &

ticket office, and the doggy waste bin provided.

The Rum Store - during the Second World War the Royal

Navy used the first cavern at Carnglaze to store its supply

of rum. Now home to a unique collection of South West

minerals, this chamber has now been converted into an

auditorium with seating for 400. The slate walls and roof

form a stunning backdrop for events, making this a unique

venue. Due to the shape and height of the cavern, the

acoustics are outstanding and have been acclaimed by many

of the local and international artists who have performed

here.

There is a fully licensed bar open on concert nights, and a

catering unit serving hot snack food at most events.

A variety of concerts are planned throughout the year

offering a selection of musical presentations with

performers from across the musical spectrum.

For details of events please visit our website

www.carnglaze.com . Concert goers come from all over

the country and the world!

Educational Visits - we welcome specifically educational

visits to support work in conjunction with elements of the

national curriculum such as Geography, Science and

History. We can tailor a tour to suit, if required: “Rocks &

Soils” and “Life after the iceage” (Key Stage 2) are

especially popular.

More detailed information can be found on the Education

web page at www.carnglaze.com

Weddings - approval for civil weddings and civil partner-

ships has been granted in four separate locations: inside

The Rum Store; beside the Subterranean Lake; in the Vine

Conservatory; and in the Enchanted Dell.

These are four unique locations to “tie the knot” and are

becoming increasingly popular with those couples looking

for somewhere a little different. Please contact us for a

separate brochure for weddings at Carnglaze or talk to the

staff in the ticket office or shop.
