The best seaside snack? An ice cream, of course - preferably eaten on the beach, in a cone, with one eye on the seagulls. Here in Cornwall, we’re lucky to have a lot of great local ice cream makers, each one bringing their own character to their delicious produce.

We’ve put together a guide to Cornish ice cream producers and parlours, take a read - https://cornish-escapes.com/our-blog/local-ice-cream-to-try-in-cornwall/

If you think of a walk in Cornwall, what do you picture? A hike along the South West Coast path, perhaps, or a dog walk among the dunes. If you know the county already, you might also imagine exploring the wilds of Bodmin Moor or the old mining districts in the west🚶

However, if you’d like to explore somewhere a bit different and perhaps escape the bustle of the better-known spots for a while, take a walk to one of Cornwall’s beautiful waterfalls. You’ll find these among our shaded woodlands and peaceful valleys, or cascading down to the sea from dramatic clifftops.

We’ve gathered together some of the best waterfall walks in Cornwall💙. Take a look and find your new favourite place - https://cornish-escapes.com/our-blog/waterfall-walks-in-cornwall/
