It’s been a beautifully hot sunny day here today in Cornwall! After a visit to Truro with my Brother we called into The Heron Inn, Malpas! The view was stunning, food was amazing and staff and service could not be faulted😁☀️🍻💕. So I’ll add this to my list of recommendations 10/10 👍🏼

It’s certainly a hot one today 😁☀️!  This is such a great way to see the Cornish coastline and wildlife 💕🦈🦭

Fowey has some great eateries, it well worth a visit to sample any of them 😁

One of tonight’s specials is a seafood linguini - king prawns, hake and mussels in a lobster infused sauce.

Seafood by the seaside, what a perfect way to end the day.

Heligan is not all about the gardens, although they are very beautiful! They have a rare breeds small holding and an array of visiting birds which can be observed from their bird hide 💕. With a shop, cafe/restaurant and farm shop there is plenty to see and do! It’s also close to the fishing port of Mevagissey which is well worth a visit !

Discover the hidden side of the Mount.

On certain days when conditions are right, boat trips round the island can take place. The boatmen call these special trips ‘Rounders’. This week we will be able to run these trips on Wednesday 19, Thursday 20 and Friday 21 July.

The round island tour takes about 20 minutes and passengers get to discover hidden parts of this unique island, such as Mackerel Bank, the Bridal Chair and the secret Victorian swimming pool.

Looking for another adventure? Follow the signs, or ask a guide for more information on the day of your visit.

Located on the outskirts of the riverside town of Lostwithiel, The Duchy Nurseries has so much to offer! Set in a beautiful location looking across the wooded valley towards Restormel Castle (which also is a great walk) the nurseries offer a wide selection of local plants, shrubs and trees. It’s gift shop has an abundance of individual treasures and the restaurant and coffee shop are certainly not to be missed!

Outside dining is certainly a must with this weather ☀️.

This is a great way to see the South Cornish Coastline and spend time at both the stunning harbour towns of Fowey and Mevagissey!

It makes a great day out and often spotted are dolphins, seals and a variety of seabirds 😁💕

The Hidden Hut is no secret after it’s appearance on TV, but it certainly is worth shouting about! The location right on Porthcurnick Beach and the coast path makes it a great walk to reward 😁. The food is simply heart warming 💕

With St Mawes and St Just in Roseland on its doorstep these are also places close by to explore!

Easter weekend what a beauty you have been. Just reassuring you we are still 100% open despite this new weather (for any brave folk out there up for a lunchtime adventure). It’s wet and wild out at sea with these westerlies but our cove is relatively sheltered from it all. The stove is full with hot pans and the bakery counter stocked up
