Cornwall

Close

Most of the hospital posts in the training scheme are at the Royal Cornwall Hospital in Truro, right in the middle of one of the most beautiful and interesting areas of England.

Cornwall is one of the country’s most popular holiday destinations and that is not purely down to the wonderful climate – although it helps.

Cornish beaches are unrivalled in the country for their variety and beauty, offering a host of outdoor pursuits. From windsurfing and diving to some of the best surfing available and most exciting walks possible, the Cornish coast offers the lot.

But that is far from the extent of Cornwall’s attraction.

Beach towns such as Perranporth and Newquay sit side by side with enchanting fishing villages including Looe, Padstow and Falmouth.

If gardens and stately homes are what interest you then you will be spoiled for choice with exciting destinations such as The Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan and Lanhydrock House.

The sheer beauty of St Michael’s Mount near Penzance is also a must to visit.

But the variety of things to do just keeps coming with the amazing outdoors Minack Theatre and the megalithic monuments scattering the breathtaking Bodmin Moor and West Cornwall countryside.

For the more adventurous there is a wide range of outdoor pursuits such as horse-riding, orienteering or rock-climbing.
