St Michael’s Mount worth a visit says Parkdean

Holidaymakers heading to Cornwall this summer have been advised to check out St Michael's Mount

Holidaymakers heading to Cornwall this summer have been advised to check out St Michael’s Mount.

According to caravan park operator Parkdean, the Penzance attraction is reputed to have been created by a legendary giant named Cormoran, who supposedly terrorised the local people.

The story goes that one young Penzance resident decided to take matters into his own hands and end the evil reign of the tyrant.

Known only as Jack, the hero dug a huge hole on St Michael’s Mount and woke the giant at sunrise.

The bright light caused Cormoran to fall down the ditch, from where he could never escape.

Caravan owners staying at Mullion Holiday Park can reach the site by taking a 40-minute drive through picturesque Cornwall.

Parkdean explained that its site offers accommodation to suit all budgets, as well as heated swimming pools, indoor play areas and a full timetable of entertainment.

The firm recently pointed out that Cornwall has been used as a set for a number of top movies in recent years, with Alice in Wonderland the latest high-profile flick to have scenes filmed there.
