Carnglaze consists of three underground caverns set in 6.5 acres of wooded hillside of the Loveny Valley at St Neot near Liskeard. Within the caverns is the famous subterranean lake with its crystal clear blue/green water. During the Second World War the Royal Navy used the first cavern, known as the Rum Store, to store its supply of rum. This is now an auditorium where a variety of concerts take place.
