What's the Eden Project Berni?
http://www.edenproject.com Daarth dear, they are biospheres [ it should be warm in there LOL ]
Blane, l was thinking more of log fires and a nice bar perhaps a jacuzzi and a four poster bed....
Facinating Berni. Riminds a little of this project in the states, but I think that was a sealed up system...
Close to the Eden Project there is a small village called Charlestown, it's close to St Austell.
Charlestown is an Historic Dockyard, there is a harbour where they carry out refits on tall sailing boats.
There are two Guest Houses there but I'm afraid that I can't remember the names of them and have been unable to find them on the internet.
Close to the dock there is a smokehouse - both guest houses will get you freshly smoked kippers for breakfast (if you like that sort of thing!)
This is really bugging me! I have stayed in both of them in the past!
Sorry I can't be more help!

Hiya Berni,
Nick in Charlestown here, Malcom has 2 B& Bs in the village, one on the harbour front called T'Gallants 01726 70203. and a smaller one opposite me, the cooperage, both are very good. there is another one further up Charlestown road called Ardenoconnel 01726 75469 which also has good accomodation and may well be a lot cheaper. higher price there is the Pier house hotel but that is suffering from a trendy bar that it has opened next door.

Charlestown is 4 miles from Eden

Oh yes and if I remember right the ice rink is still open at Eden.

If you want a splurge I'd recommend the Nare Hotel, Nare Head - it's wonderful....great sea views.
Hiya,
The Nare, although good, is about a 40 min drive to Eden, it is on Nare head between Mevagissey and St Mawes, on the Roseland peninsular.
It is nice though.
Nick
the Nare looks lovely, but I could get a week in the Caribbean for the price of a 3 day stay there ! LOL
off to check the lottery tickets, just in case..........
T`Gallants looks nice, I`ll give them a ring later, thanks guys
T'Gallants! That's the one!
The rooms are good, the breakfast is huge and Malcolm is a great guy!
The front rooms have a great view of the docks if you are able to specify.
I haven't been there for about 3-4 years but I stayed there a lot when I was working down there.
Ken
Try www.2stay.com and you will be able to view the hotels online brochure and rooms.

have fun
Carl
stay in one of the many St Austell B&Bs... lovely places, welcoming Cornish families, great food and you'll also be helping the local economy!!!!!! x
The Rashleigh Arms (www.staustellbrewery.co.uk) has accomodation but is quite a busy pub. It does have a restaurant as well as the bar though. T'Gallants (www.t-gallants.co.uk) is a guest house just below the Rashleigh and the Pier House (www.pierhousehotel.com) has accomodation overlooking the harbour and also has a restaurant and bar next door. Charlestown is a lovely place to stay and has kept a lot of it's character due to it being privately owned.
The Humid Tropics Biome is the world's largest greenhouse. It is home to the plants of the rainforest - bananas, rubber, cocoa, coffee, teak and mahogany.
It is best to visit this biome after first aclimatising in the warm Temperate Biome.
The path through the biome winds ever upwards towards the top and it gets rather hot! Fortunately there are water dispensers throughout so you can get a drink.
More than £100 million (thats GBP) has been invested in the Eden Project to date. £50 million has been provided by the Millennium Commission. Much more money is needed to maintain the existing site, and to build the new Dry Tropical Biome, due to open in 2005.
Here is a picture of one of the many waterfalls or streams to be found in the Rainforest area.
This waterfall gushes out from the rock face at the back of the Tropical Biome & runs down the centre to a pond area.
When you first walk in to the Biome the temperatrure is quite pleasant, then as you rise up through the tropical forest it gets more humid & hotter. They have an exit half way up for those who just can not bare it, you also have a choice as to whether you climb up to above the waterfall or take a lower path.
If anyone really gets in to trouble there is an emergency cool room about two thirds up.
