Eden Project

Where green dreams take root

Eden Project

The Eden Project blooms in South Cornwall’s clay pits, where biomes hum with life—Rainforest’s steamy vines, Mediterranean’s olive groves. As kids, we’d drive from London, windscreens splattered with bugs, scrubbing them off with giggles at journey’s end. Windscreens stay cleaner now, but Eden dreams of buzzing meadows. More than a visit, it’s a way to live—compost at home, plant a seed, let green ideas grow. Tickets (~£38, 2024, 9 AM–6 PM) unlock this world, a hop from our fisherman’s cottage. Wander domes, sip coffee in eco-cafés, scribble plans for a kinder Earth. St Austell’s brewery beckons nearby, but Eden’s spark lingers—carry it home.
