Written by Jason Jacobson December 31, 2019January 9, 2020

At Cornwall, the outdoors are a must-go especially if you’re there during the season of hope and new beginnings. Aside from the scenery, there are also a lot of festivities happening around. If you want to know what a blooming spring really feels like, take a look at these sites to visit. 1. Gardens of Cornwall Home of the daffodils, spring brings new life to the gardens of Cornwall. This sub-tropical foliage functions year-round but only every explodes in color during the spring. The Magnolia Campbellii Champion trees is quite a sight as these rare majestic trees luminate the breathing and very much alive gardens of Cornwall.

“Wild Hyacinths” are another way to call these beautiful flowers that spring to life around the country of Cornwall. 4

Written by Jason Jacobson September 26, 2019

When you go to Cornwall, you enter the surf centre of the UK, with many surf schools catering to Surfing has become a favorite sport of mine since I tried it out as a teen, and I have influenced some of my friends and family into loving the waves as well. Thanks to the easy accessibility of Cornwall and its wonderful surfing spots, we have become frequent visitors to these spots. 1. Trevone Bay Unlike other beaches where the waves can be unpredictable and thus dangerous for amateurs, Trevone Bay is exposed and have consistent waves. Still, it is only recommended during low tide and surfers have to watch out for the huge rocks.

Still, this is nothing like the popular Cornish beaches which can get packed

The Bodmin Beast Cycle Trail This 12-kilometer long trail is new and is for more experienced bikers, exactly as the name implies. You will need the skill to tackle the climbs and the speedy descents. You will also face snaking trails and spots that will test your technical capabilities. However, if you prefer to take it slow, then you can choose a more relaxed route at Cardinham Woods. 2. Goss Moor Cycle Trail This route is perfect if you love nature, which is a surprise given its history. Goss Moor used to be a motorist’s nightmare but thanks to the rerouting of the A30 and the new dual highway, it has been transported into a ride close to nature.

The Great Flat Lode cycle trail, which is a 12-kilometer circular route, is located in the historic Camborne-Redruth mining district, meaning it is part of the Cornish Mining World Heritage Site

The Most Scenic Cornwall Road Trips

Written by Jason Jacobson July 6, 2019

Here are some of the region’s most scenic driving routes. Boscastle to Bude This 24-kilometre stretch is, without a doubt, Cornwall’s most scenic drives. While the area boasts of the A39, it is best for road trippers to stick to the coastal road. This is the best route to get mesmerised by dramatic seascapes while getting one’s driving skills tested against curving clifftop roads. The best part of the journey is indulging in the best Cornish ice cream at Boscastle. The ice cream here is hand-churned, rich, creamy, and divine. Tregony to St. Mawes Stretching some 32 kilometres, the scenic drive from Tregony to St. Mawes offers one of the best in Cornish driving experiences.

Written by Jason Jacobson June 7, 2019June 10, 2019

Cornwall is, without a doubt, a popular tourist destination, with its sandy beaches and waves perfect for surfing. Unfortunately, its popularity also means crowds during warm weather. So in your next trip to Cornwall, skip the tourist traps and head over to these lesser-known places instead. 1. Nanjizal

Nanjizal is one of those secret areas that remain so because it is secluded. However, if you manage to find your way here, you will be rewarded with so much natural beauty that will make the journey worthwhile.

Best Cornish Spots to Learn Stand-Up Paddleboarding

Written by Jason Jacobson May 5, 2019June 5, 2019

Perfect for newbies especially in calmer waters, the River Helford is always a favourite spot for those who would like to learn or even hone their skills in stand-up paddleboarding. The waters can be serene, much like that of a lake. But what is really amazing about the place is that it provides you an Instagrammable view of the Falmouth Bay coastline. Plus it's an amazing place to stay at nearby holiday cottages and vacation rentals in Helford or Falmouth. The river banks are lined with trees while the creeks that branch from the main body are also inviting for the more advanced paddlers. In low tide, one can easily sit on the paddleboard and start picking oysters below the water surface, although you’d have plenty of competitors in the herons that flock the field as well as oyster catchers hoping to take full advantage of the bounty.
