WALKING HOLIDAYS IN CORNWALL

England’s most westerly corner is a rugged peninsula that clings to long held local customs, legends, and an ancient language all its own. And in the same way that Cornish miners once chiselled precious metals from the earth, Cornwall has carved out a place for itself as a big-name walking destination.

There are 422-miles of wow-worthy coastal paths that reveal hidden coves and secluded sandy bays awash with stories of smugglers, piracy, and plunder. Add in a treasure trove of charming harbour towns, standout surfing spots, and top attractions like the Eden Project too, it’s no surprise Cornwall keeps us coming back for more.

With more miles of coastline and hours of sunshine than anywhere else in England, Cornwall offers a bucketful of outdoor activities including rock pooling, coasteering, kayaking, and paddleboarding. It’s also got some serious surfing credentials, especially on the beaches of Newquay.

If you need to fuel up for the fun, Cornwall serves some of Britain’s best seafood – just ask celebrity chef, Padstow resident, and champion of all things Cornish, Rick Stein.
