CORNWALL

Cornwall has its own unique history. Today, Cornwall’s culture and anthropology is still closely linked to that of Wales. The Romans recognized them as the same peoples and so they were until the Normans managed to push as far as the River Severn and separate them geographically. Cornwall was known to the Romans as "Cornubia" and played a vital role in the trade and mining of valuable minerals such as tin and copper, which were highly sought after by the empire.

Cornwall of Today

Today, Cornwall, is known as the captivating and rugged maritime county in the southwestern tip of England. It is a land of stunning contrasts and timeless beauty. Its dramatic coastline stretches for over 400 miles, offering picturesque views of towering cliffs, hidden coves, and golden sandy beaches. 

Cornwall's maritime heritage runs deep, with charming fishing villages like St. Ives and Padstow showcasing its seafaring traditions. The county is steeped in history, from ancient stone circles and Celtic legends to its mining.

Coastal Beauty

The area offers opportunities for surfing at Newquay, hiking the stunning Southwest Coast Path, and exploring the Eden Project's biodomes. The picturesque fishing villages of St. Ives, Mousehole, and Port Isaac exude charm and are also perfect for leisurely strolls, while the bustling town of Falmouth offers maritime history and culture. Additionally, Cornwall's culinary scene is thriving, with seafood restaurants and traditional Cornish pasty shops providing a taste of local flavors.
