Royal Cornwall Show -

Agriculture and care for the countryside go together.

Here you can enjoy a magnificent cross section of country life - current and traditional, peaceful and hectic, familiar and surprising.

The lake is teeming with wildlife; the gentle, graceful art of fly fishing is demonstrated here. Birds of prey and rare breeds can be witnessed and admired at close quarters.

There's an air of tranquillity, of peace. You can rest here before moving on. Or spend time here, watching and enjoying a complete programme run by skilled and dedicated country people doing what they love to do.

This is also a place of learning. About the importance of conservation and understanding the fabric of the countryside around us. The area will again include working displays of a large number of country skills and the Cornish Heritage Marquee featuring displays by a wide range of local organisations.

A lake, two demonstration rings and fascinating exhibits.

Situated at the Western end of the Showground, the Countryside Area features a host of displays and exhibits of country skills, sports and crafts plus a full programme of entertainment both in the Display Ring and on and around the Lake.

Come and see live trout caught with the fly rod, cooked and available for tasting at this years show. Plus a whole host of events and displays taking place in and around the lake throughout the show
