Cornwall tours & vacations

There are multiple ways you can travel to Cornwall including by plane, driving, catching the train, or by coach. Each option depends on where you're traveling from with flying being the quickest option if you're traveling from outside England. Getting to Cornwall by car or coach is also a good option as you get to take in the breathtaking English countryside as you make your way to Cornwall. Catching a train is usually the cheapest option but the price of tickets will vary depending on the season you're traveling in and where in the UK you're traveling from. 

Making your way around Cornwall once you're there is also easy, thanks to the county's excellent transportation services.

Cornwall offers an extensive range of bus and rail routes that'll quickly take you through the city center and surrounding regions.

Driving around Cornwall with clearly marked signs and car rental services in the town is also efficient.

Cornwall is also relatively flat and has a stunning natural landscape, so cycling and walking the coastline and countryside is popular too. 

Due to Cornwall's location at the most southerly tip of England, it generally experiences warmer and sunnier weather than anywhere else in the country.

While this means Cornwall experiences roughly 1,541 hours of sunshine per year, it also still sees a lot of rainfall regardless of the season with January and December being the wettest months.

The warmest month of the year is July however, it's unlikely the weather in Cornwall during summer will get to extreme levels.

What to pack for your trip to Cornwall largely depends on what time of the year you travel in and what type of holiday you want to have.

If you're going to be doing a lot of hiking or other outdoor activities, it's recommended you pack a sturdy, comfortable pair of boots or shoes, as well as long trousers and waterproof jackets.

If you travel in winter, remember to pack scarves, beanies, gloves, long shirts, and jumpers.

For summer travel, you should pack t-shirts, shorts, dresses, and a light cardigan or jumper for chilly evenings.
