The popularity of swimming in the open air in lakes, rivers and seas has been on the increase in recent years, and in 2020, with the closure of swimming pools and leisure centres, a tidal surge of people have got involved in the pastime.

As the summer softens into autumn, the air grows crisper, the breeze cooler, and the leaves turn vivid bright and fall. Enjoy rambles through the autumnal countryside and along cliff top coastal paths, harvesting memories of golden sunsets, summer warmed waters, and soft Cornish air.

As spring approaches and the clifftop flowers come into bloom there’s no better time to pull on your walking boots and go for health-boosting, happiness-enhancing walks along north Cornwall’s gorgeous coast.

We know your dogs love a holiday to Cornwall, as much as you do! Racing along the beach, splashing in rockpools and rambling along miles and miles of sand or coast path. Perranporth is the perfect spot for your dog friendly holiday in Cornwall. So here's our top spots for your pooch.

Immerse yourself in a little piece of Cornish history this year by choosing a Cornish cottage by the coast for a self-catering holiday to remember.

Although we’re currently enjoying an Indian summer and making the most of these last balmy days of sun, there’s a definite feeling in the air of the change of the season. The light has a glorious golden hue, sending soft sparkles across the waves, and once the sun has set at the end of another beautiful day, there’s a crispness in the air hinting at Autumn just around the corner.
