Cornwall: Legends & Landscapes

This Culture & Heritage holiday is based in three welcoming and deluxe accommodations.

For the first two nights, we stay in a charming cliff-top hotel on the dramatic Lizard Peninsula, offering breathtaking sea views and a relaxing spa. Our next two nights are spent in a stylish boutique hotel overlooking Carbis Bay just along the coast from St Ives. Finally, for the final two nights, we stay in an exceptional Seafood restaurant with elegant rooms in the harbour town of Padstow.

Single Rooms

There is no supplement charged to solo travellers, however, you will be required to share a room with another person of the same sex. If you request a double room for single occupancy, a supplement of £880 is charged.

Due to the nature of the accommodations we use, single supplements are limited and are allocated on a first come first served basis.

This Culture and Heritage trip is designed for travellers interested in local history, traditions, and ways of life. It offers a relaxed pace with immersive experiences, guided visits, and opportunities to connect with communities, craftspeople and custodians of heritage.

Most days are spent almost entirely outdoors, exploring historic sites, gardens, or rural areas. Terrain is generally easy, with some uneven surfaces, steps or gentle inclines. There are also occasional opportunities to make ascents to scenic viewpoints—these may involve steeper and winding staircases, rugged paths or rougher terrain for those who are keen. These trips would be suitable for most reasonably active travellers.

This trip is ideal for those who enjoy cultural depth without physical challenge, and who value engaging storytelling, local knowledge and meaningful connection with place.

You will be met by your Wilderness England guide at Truro Railway Station at 12:30pm on Day 1 of your trip.

The trip will conclude at Truro Railway Station at 3:00pm on the final day.

Truro Railway Station is on the Cornish Main Line connecting Cornwall and neighbouring Devon. Direct services to and from London Paddington are also available. Regular trains run throughout the day.
