Coastal Cornwall 26

Itinerary

We travel to Falmouth with breakfast and refreshment stops en route. We arrive at our hotel with time to relax before our evening meal. We have three-day excursions to include a leisurely journey southwest to Land’s End where you can take a stroll along the family-friendly paths above cliffs carved out by the Atlantic Ocean and visit the ‘End to End’ exhibition that tells the stories of some of those who made the 838-mile journey to or from John O’Groats. We then travel to St Ives, one of Cornwall’s most popular seaside destinations. There’s free time to lose yourself in the maze of narrow, cobbled streets and alleyways, and spend time down by the harbour beach. Don’t miss the Tate St Ives and the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden where work by the country’s leading 20^th century artists is exhibited in tranquil gardens. We enjoy a full day in Newquay, the laid-back resort offers a mix of beautiful beaches, cliff top views and seafront shops. Another day takes us up the Atlantic coast to the pretty fishing town of Padstow. The colourful working harbour sits among pastel washed medieval houses. We continue along the coast. Our final stop is the village of Boscastle, a picturesque natural harbour and village, mostly owned by the National Trust. The Elizabethan quay sits in an impressive amphitheatre of steep cliffs and is home to quaint stone-built cottages, shops and tea-rooms. We also enjoy two days at leisure to explore the maritime resort of Falmouth with plenty of attractions and shops to explore. On the final day, we depart the hotel after our hearty breakfast and set off to meet our transport in Lancashire. We stop on the way for a meal and refreshments.
