This iconic island rises gracefully to the church and castle at its summit. Accessible on foot at low tide across a causeway, at other times it is reached by a short, evocative boat trip. The oldest surviving buildings date from the 12th century, when a Benedictine priory was founded here. Following the civil war, the island was acquired by the St Aubyn family, who still live in the castle. In the intervening years many additions and alterations were made to convert it for use as a mansion house. Fascinating rooms from different eras include the mid 18th century gothic style blue drawing room. A sand chair is now available from April to October to help enable access across the beach and causeway, call 01736 710507 for more info.
