2023 - Newquay - Cream Of Cornwall
5 days
5 or 7 day tours
Head to Britain's most southerly point on the mainland and you will find yourself in Cornwall. Newquay makes an ideal central base from which to tour this truly lovely region. It boasts some of the finest coastline and beaches in Europe and is unquestionably one of Cornwall's loveliest resorts. The sunny climate has attracted visitors for centuries, from the pirates which have given this county its own flag, to the thrill seekers who come to play along the rugged coastline, to gentler folk who come to enjoy the quaint fishing villages, rolling hills, rugged moorland and beautiful gardens.
