I couldn't agree more with the above comment...Land's End USED TO BE JUST THE HOTEL ...until they built that horrible mini theme park in the 90s !!! I can remember going to a Wedding Reception in the Hotel in 1967 when they bombed the Torrey Canyon Oil Tanker which ran aground on the Severn Stones Reef and spewed out gallons of Crude Oil on the beaches throughout Cornwall!!!
Personally, I think we are now in a digital age, where a professional photographer isn't required to capture such memories. This whole situation needs reviewing and updating. I feel the theme park is dated, it needs demolishing, it's tacky and a distraction to the whole point of Land's End. People are environmentally aware nowadays. Land's End needs to get back to the basics... a carpark, toilets and lovely cafe with affordable food and drink, with views across the ocean. All built with an awareness of the environment so that it fits in with the beautiful surroundings. The signpost, a focal point for all to enjoy. Keeping it all simple and joyful.

Once you could take your own picture for free under the sign. The rot started when they built the ammusements in the 1990’s. It should never have been built there, ruining the natural beauty of Lands End.

Since 1948 there's been a charge to have your picture took by the signpost.
