Whilst there's the hideously inconconguous modern Seachange Art and Craft Centre which is, to my mind, a total eyesore there's also the Stableyard Craft Centre which is much more in keeping with the rest of the estate.

The 17th century stables have been converted into artisan workshops where visitors can watch demonstrations such as glass-blowing, leatherworking, ceramics and the internationally-renowned Cockington Rocking Horse makers.

Observing is free and if you want to buy anything they'll be more than happy to part you from your cash!
