There are plenty of things to do on Exmoor from walking and cycling to bird watching and cream teas.

The world famous theatre is perched on the rugged cliffs of South-West Cornwall and welcomes over a quarter of a million people each year to enjoy the stunning ocean views and experience the magic of live performance in an iconic setting.
