Things to Do

Our food providers are not alone in the quest for perfection, visit the many regular farmers’ markets held countywide in marquees, schools and village halls; you will find creamy cakes, fresh fish, mouth-watering meat, succulent sausages and a variety of organic vegetables, in fact all kinds of delicious delicacies for the food conscious connoisseur.

Visit our farm shops dotted throughout the county, where local producers and suppliers can assure you that their crops have been harvested at the peak of its flavour, which preserves the nutritional value.

For the really keen gourmet visitor you may find that one of our many annual food and drink festivals tie in with your holiday. You will be spoilt for choice as you sample the culinary delights of seasonal dishes cooked up during the local chef’s demonstrations as they showcase their skills with a distinctly Cornish taste.

At the end of your visit should you miss some of the delicacies that the county produces, you can always go and order online for that Cornish goodness, with a variety of websites that offer a range of top quality food and drink that can be posted off next day, either for your own consumption or would make ideal gifts for any occasion for friends or family, birthdays, anniversaries or just to say thank you.
