Newquay & The Best Of The Cornish Coast

Itinerary

Day 1

Join your coach this morning and head south west towards the beautiful county of Cornwall, and the stunning seaside resort of Newquay which attracts sun seekers and surfers alike to its fantastic beaches and dramatic waves coming in over the scenic coastline. On arrival at your comfortable hotel you will have time to settle in and relax, perhaps enjoying a drink in the bar or taking a stroll to the picturesque seafront, before your included evening meal and some great entertainment.

Days 2 to 3

Your comfortable central hotel allows you to make the most of your free time to explore your lovely resort and its beautiful location on the north Cornish coast. This laid-back resort offers a mix of beautiful beaches, cliff-top views and seafront shops. Treat yourself to an authentic pasty, ice cream or Cornish Cream Tea. Just make sure you leave room for your evening meal each night. You can enjoy entertainment at the hotel on two nights, giving you the opportunity, if you wish, to step out and sample Newquay by night on the other evenings.

Spend all of your time in Newquay as you please, or join us on your two INCLUDED excursions for a taste of Cornwall!

St Ives & The Lizard Peninsula

INCLUDED Visitor DestinationSt Ives is the proud winner of a showcase of national awards including one of the 10 best European beach destinations voted by Trip Advisor. It’s no wonder then that the town has been attracting artists for decades who come to capture the area’s undeniable natural beauty. It started with J M W Turner and the marine artist Henry Moore who first came to St Ives in the mid-1800s and since then the town has become a magnet for some of the world’s greatest painters, sculptors and ceramicists. There are so many reasons to love the charm and beauty of this picture perfect resort and you can explore and find your own!

The Lizard Peninsula is the most southerly point of the British mainland. Stunningly beautiful at any time of the year, there is nowhere quite like it anywhere else in Britain. Almost surrounded by the sea, the peninsula stands alone from the rest of the county. Small cottages, thatched and whitewashed, cluster around tiny harbours.
