A land rich in industrial heritage, awash with legend and adorned with some of the most spectacular scenery imaginable, North Cornwall is as dramatic as it is beautiful.

Regularly featured in films for its raw beauty, its little wonder why this area has captured so many hearts and inspired so many minds.

From the surfers’-favourite, Bude to the myth-soaked Tintagel to the foodie haven of Padstow, North Cornwall truly has something for everyone. Bury your toes in the sand on one of the many jaw-dropping beaches and coves or swap sandals for stilettos with a night of fine dining. If there’s nothing more invigorating than a fair breeze and salty spray, take to the water for a sail before returning to your luxury retreat.
