Cornwall: a coast-to-coast itinerary

Five days, twenty fishing villages and the country's best beaches.

Cornwall is the south-west tip of England — a granite peninsula of fishing villages, surf beaches, tin-mining heritage (now a UNESCO World Heritage Site) and an unmistakable Celtic identity. Five days lets you do both north (Atlantic, surf) and south (sheltered, sub-tropical) coasts.
