Can you guess these Cornish attractions from their TripAdvisor reviews?

We've taken 9 reviews of local attractions from TripAdvisor. But which attractions are these reviewers talking about?

1. ‘It's a positively modern building when compared to many of the other [...] in the country, and well, just not as impressive a building. Still worth a look in, but perhaps for a shorter visit.’

2. ‘The truth from a local is: There is no beach as all the sand has been washed away. It stinks badly!!’

3. ‘Unfortunately, we shall not visit again as our day was completely ruined by dogs chasing wildlife, pooing everywhere, and, to top it all, now even being allowed in the restaurant, which we consider completely unhygienic, and the constant loud barking was unbearable! Even the staff seemed to object! That is more than can be said of the dog owners. Shame!’

4. ‘A great shame that English heritage are running this racket. Given the entry price and the number of visitors, there should at the very least be a castle there! The authenticity of the dry stone walling is also questionable. Given the revenue they turnover, they could afford to at least provide some decent information boards. It's embarrassing that tourists coming from all over the world are stopping here on a tour of our wonderful country. If you want to see a decent castle, go to Pembroke.’

5. ‘Overall, expensive and disappointing. Emphasis is on the cafe and overpriced gift shop. Firstly it's NOT a castle, it's a small fortified tower. Outshone by every other castle I have visited. Initially I was surprised that no guided tours were on offer. But frankly there's no need.’

6. ‘[...] is sadly Cornwall’s Blackpool. It’s a shame but it lacks sophistication in any aspect. Shopping, one star. General look and feel of the place, one star.’

7. ‘Overpriced for what you got… Seriously need to review their pricing structure for a day visit… The venue, gardens and vista […] is brilliant. Sadly not worth the £9/person entry fee…’

8. ‘Worst experience ever. I’d rather watch a 10 hour documentary on potato farming than visit this absolute tourist dump.’

9. ‘It's not even a real castle! Just a few crumbling remains surrounded by a park thing full of dogs muck and a couple of benches. Really, don't waste time or money, it's nothing more than a derelict cottage. It's more of a hangout for teens drinking or other things.’
