The Minack Theatre

"This place is just wonderful, the fact it was mainly built by a single lady and a few gardeners adds to the wonder. Everywhere is covered in personal touches carved into the concrete stone. There is so much to see. The parking is pretty decent, and you’ll need to be fairy mobile to see the full theatre. It can be quite precarious going certain ways, but take your time and look for different ways. The cafe has snacks and drinks, not much more. All the facilities are clean, and well looked after. 2 hours is enough to see the bulk of what’s on offer, kids will love the climbing, but there’s places to chill and see the views from nearly every vantage point. The views are amazing, to the beach on one side, to the boats coming into view from the other. The beach is great , but you will need to drive to a different car park to get to it. The gardens and plants are lovely to look at. It’s definitely a place to go if you get chance. We were lucky to see kids practicing a play. It restricted a few areas at times, but only for a short time. I’d check the timetables before planning a visit. Just in case something is on. You can pre-book (like we did) it saves time."

"Very beautiful. We made the sensible decision not to use our rental on this day but take the buses available as the drive would have been crazy. With that stress taken away, it was an amazing place. You could spend an hour exploring. The views are amazing. The staff were nice in the visitor area and nice exhibition about the history of the theatre. Unfortunately we went around the time of heat wave. I guess it will be even better in the autumn and winter months and to see a concert in action will be fantastic."

"The Minack is well worth the journey. The scenery is stunning, especially as a background to early evening performances. The acoustics are amazing, even for someone like me wearing hearing aids. Remember to take cushions and a blanket, the temperature drops a lot even on a warm night. Food supplied before and during the interval looked good and fresh although you are allowed to take in a picnic including alcohol. Access can be quite challenging for us in later years, so we chose to sit in the upper area, you still get a great view."

"Plan a day without rain... and when you have energy! A wonderful place to see. The views are breathtaking and the sense of theatrical history is wonderful. Nice tea shop to take a rest after the climb back up. Be warned... the drive there is alarming at times - narrow and full of twists. Also, it's all on a cliff edge so it's very much a case of loads of steps. Worth it, though."

"Loved the experience and scenery here! Was a great place to stop by and explore especially with the outstanding views that it had to offer. Only a small price to see and learn about the history of the landmark. It also has its own cafe and wall-through museum as well as daily performances for tourists. There is also a beach right down to the left of it which people could also go to after going through the area. Very cute and amazing views you can see and take pictures of!!"
