Cornwall is one of the most popular holiday destinations in the UK, raking in five million tourists a year. Is it any wonder when the county boasts everything from wild moorland and vast valleys, to colourful gardens, gorgeous fishing villages, towering cliffs and world-renowned surfing resorts? So, whether you’re planning to spend your time fishing or hiking, sunbathing or surfing, there really is something for everyone.
While Cornwall is renowned for its landscape, it’s also a hotspot for culture. In fact, Cornwall is internationally renowned for its art scene, having attracted ceramicists, painters and writers for centuries. Cornwall’s art scene was particularly active during the 20th century and much of the work which was produced during that time is housed in the Tate St Ives.
Of course, you’re bound to work up an appetite with all that exploring, and thankfully Cornwall is well regarded for its cuisine. If you’re in the mood for a traditional Cornish pasty, scones with clotted cream (done the Cornish way, obviously) or maybe you fancy some fudge, you won’t walk away hungry.
Cornwall is the place to be year round. And if you’re looking for somewhere to hold your Christmas party, there are plenty of places to host a spectacular do!
