Isha described the location as one of "the UK's hidden gems", and it's easy to see why.

The Minack Theatre boasts dramatic views of the cliffs and the sea below, while the location itself is stunning too - with beautifully designed stone steps winding down the cliff to the stage below and patches of grass lining the seating area. What's more, the Minack Theatre is still fully operational and hosts a season of plays and musicals from March to November, giving you a chance to experience this gorgeous venue in all its glory. @isha.
