The West Country / Cornwall region
The scenery in Cornwall is spectacular - tantalising views of deep wooded valleys and wide vistas of sparkling blue sea combine with a varied and luxuriantly coloured landscape, historic market towns, attractive fishing villages and picturesque riverside hamlets. Ancient antiquities, such as stone circles and remains of iron age villages can be found between Land’s End and Penzance, and Celtic crosses dot the countryside.
The region’s fishing industry still survives in harbours such as Newlyn, Mevagissey, Padstow, Falmouth, Looe and Polperro, and many smaller boats still work out of coves such as Port Isaac, Cadgwith and Mullion.
There are a wealth of superb restaurants and bistros to be found along with more traditional inns and, of course, the famous Cornish pasty and saffron cake can be bought in every bakery in Cornwall.
St Ives is a must for arts and crafts, with 30 galleries including the Tate. Fowey has many small galleries and specialist shops, as well as St Agnes on the north coast and Penzance in the west. The cathedral city of Truro has many of the major high street stores, as well as specialist retailers dotted around the many narrow ope ways leading off the main thoroughfares.
