Cornwall is more than a county. It has its own culture, a distinct history, an ancient language and strong customs. Most tourists visit Cornwall for the gorgeous beaches – and they certainly are amongst the best in the country.

My family are from Cornwall, so this travel guide will give you some local insight to this wonderful part of the country!
