Itinerary

Day 1

After joining the coach, we make our way to our hotel and check in. Later we enjoy a mulled wine reception together.

Day 2 – Optional excursion to Falmouth (£10pp)

On our optional half-day excursion, we have the chance to visit Falmouth, a charming port town and popular sailing destination with a proud seafaring history and fine beaches. It is home to the deepest harbour in Western Europe and other attractions include Pendennis Castle and the National Maritime Museum Cornwall. Tonight, we enjoy a 4-course dinner served with a complimentary glass of wine back at the hotel.

Day 3 – Padstow

We head to the quaint fishing port of Padstow on our half-day excursion. The town is renowned as a great foodie destination thanks in part to its connection to Chef Rick Stein, whose restaurant is based locally. Lovely views can be appreciated from the harbour which is surrounded by craft and gift shops, cafés and restaurants. Back at the hotel this afternoon, we enjoy tea and Christmas cake.

Day 4

After breakfast, we check out of our hotel and travel home.

Padstow

Padstow is a charmer of a fishing port. Forever synonymous with celebrity chef Rick Stein, who owns a local restaurant, it’s a fab foodie destination! After gorging yourself on a platter of fresh seafood, pull up a deckchair and watch the boats roll in towards the pretty harbour. Don’t forget to explore the quirky gift shops, or simply while away the afternoon tucking into a delicious Cornish cream tea in one of the many lovely cafés.

Hotel Rating

JG3 rating

Hotels with a JG3 rating tend to be a more formal style of hotel, often part of a hotel chain, or are very-welcoming family-owned properties. Generally, they offer a greater range of facilities and services, and bedrooms tend to be a little more spacious with additional features. Public areas are larger and include lounge seating, bar and restaurant with good quality food served either buffet style or waiter service.
