CAREFULLY CURATED MULTI-DAY TRIPS
The Cornish Tours ‘Journeys’, for our 2025 launch year, are two uniquely different three-day/two-night escapes where we’ve handpicked two 4-star hotels that each have a fabulous 2 AA Rosette restaurant and spa.
We’ve chosen two great locations – each with stunning sea views, and each ideally positioned as bases from which to get out and explore two very different parts of Cornwall.
We will operate these tours April-June and September-November, to avoid the peak July & August travel periods.
We are also happy to put together both longer itineraries for you, collecting you from national or regional airports/railways stations, and tailoring a tour of Cornwall that suits your own interests and timeframe.
Each of our journeys has been planned to perfection to showcase the very best of the region
