10 THINGS TO DO IN MARCH

1.  March 5th is St Piran's Day, Cornwall's most celebrated Saint, whose discovery of tin smelting is depicted on Cornwall's flag.  Many events are taking place on and around March 5th to mark the day. Most events are free. See our What's On Diary for details.  

2.  Mother's Day is the perfect time to show your mum how much you appreciate her.  What about a lovely walk on the coast if the weather's fine and you may like to book lunch at one of our featured pubs and restaurants: 

Logan Rock Inn, Treen, St Levan 

Queens Arms, Botallack

The Bay, Hotel Penzance

3.   At St Columb Major an unusual tradition is enacted.  Very different in nature from the hurling at St Ives, St Columb's event involves two teams competing for the silver ball in a game which takes place through the streets of St Columb Major.  See details in our What's On Diary

4.  Help the Cornish Ancient Sites Protection Network on one of their clear ups, keeping one of the Land's End peninsula's archaeological sites in a good state for visitors.  There is only one clear up every month.  March's clear up is at Madron Holy Well  See details in our What's On Diary 

5. Details can be found in our What's On Diary.
