On our recent trip to Cornwall we spotted a sign for Carnglaze Caverns on our way to another attraction. As it turned out, that place was closed so we turned back and headed to the Caverns instead. The narrow winding road led through a beautiful wooded valley, and finally up a steep driveway we arrived at our destination. And what a surprise we had! Everywhere you look there are Faeries, peeking out at you from lush foliage. The acres surrounding the Caverns have been lovingly transformed into the most delightful Enchanted Dell, with creative landscaping and scores of Faerie sculptures (many by Enchanted). A woodland walk leads you to discover even more treasures, including a hobbit house and faces carved into tree stumps. In the early summer the carpet of bluebells covers 3 acres - Faerie magic indeed!
The Caverns themselves are fascinating too. They are actually old slate mines and you can now tour the three vast caverns and see the amazing blue/green subterranean lake which fills one of them. The smaller cavern is also used as a venue for concerts and craft fairs. Last year it played host to a Fairy Ball, which I can imagine was very apt for such a lovely place.

We’re eagerly dusting off the wings and putting the final touches to our finest Faerie ensembles in preparation for 3 Wishes Faery Fest, which is now just a month away! Beyond doubt, this is our favourite event of the year and we are looking forward once more to the gathering of the Faerie Clan on Cornwall’s Bodmin Moor this June 19th - 21st.
This year’s highlights include the début UK performance of Demonia Nymphe, plus performances by The Dolmen, Faeries Wear Boots, Brocc and many more! There will be some of the UK’s most talented Faerie artists in attendance, and lots of wandering entertainers, stalls and workshops to suit all ages.
Tickets are on sale now – weekend tickets include camping on-site, or you can opt to stay in the Faerie village in a luxury yurt!
