Cornwall

Day 1

We depart the local area with stops on route for coffee and lunch before arriving at the Rosemundy House Hotel mid-afternoon, ready to settle in and get acquainted with the facilities at the hotel before dinner.

Day 2

This morning, we spend time at leisure at the hotel. In the afternoon we visit Healeys Cornish Cyder Farm. Travel back in time and unlock the secrets of traditional cyder-making and see where the famous Rattler Cyder is bottled, packaged, and kegged. Healey's is also famous for making England's oldest whiskey and you can tip-toe through the sleeping barrels hidden in the cellars.

Day 3

This morning, we visit Trelissick Gardens (NT), which is set on its own peninsula, with panoramic views over the Fal estuary. You can explore the meandering paths through the garden, leading to exotic plants and herbaceous borders bursting with colour.

Day 4

This morning, we take a drive to Falmouth where we join a river cruise to enjoy the natural beauty and wildlife of Falmouth Bay. This afternoon is at leisure in Falmouth.

Day 5

Today we travel to Padstow where we explore the town which has become synonymous with Rick Stein. The harbour is the bustling centre of the town and further along the front there is the National Lobster Hatchery, which was set up to conserve the local lobster population and preserve marine biodiversity.

Day 6

After breakfast we will start the journey home, with breaks on route for coffee and lunch, arriving back in the local area early evening.
