Hounds and heritage

Head to Cornwall Gold with your furry friend in tow and gain a fascinating insight into Cornwall’s industrial heritage.

A day out at Cornwall Gold is perfect for the whole family, but did you know that dogs love it there too? Indeed, furry friends are not just accepted, but very much welcome across the entire site! Cornwall Gold offers something for couples, families and any group and, with water and biscuits always available, your pooch needn’t miss out on the day either.

After a round of Krazy Golf or having had a go at panning for gold in Tolgus Stream, be sure to pop into the spacious Cornish Pantry, where you can enjoy Taste of the West Gold Award-winning Cornish food, both indoors and out depending on the weather.

Afterwards, why not browse the beautiful collections of jewellery and gifts, made in the heart of Cornwall, or take your loved ones on a trip around Tolgus Tin Mill? Tolgus has been in action since 1865 and is at the heart of the site. In fact, it is the last original streaming works in Europe, and tin is still smelted here and mixed with silver and gold to produce the absolutely breathtaking Tolgus Collection.

Proceeds from this range of jewellery are invested back into the mill and its restoration project. What’s more, whether it’s for a loved one or as a treat unto yourself, each item of jewellery oozes Cornish character and charm.

So, for a day that everybody can enjoy, including your four-legged friend, be sure to pencil in a trip to Cornwall Gold. It’s only ten minutes from the coast too, with its beaches and coast paths that dogs simply love to explore!
