Outstanding Natural Beauty

Outstanding Natural Beauty

The Peninsula is arguably one of the most dramatic landscapes in the UK: granite cliffs – the highest in England – tower over Atlantic rollers, then dip down to deserted beaches.  Astonishing folds and rock formations, wild heathland and rare fauna and flora mean that protecting these landscapes whilst promoting their enjoyment is an important part of living and visiting here, see below.

Fabulous Food & Drink

Fabulous Food & Drink

Wonderful things to eat and drink are an essential part of any stay or visit. With a long farming, foraging and fishing heritage, fabulous food is quite simply a way of life here. Food is literally fresh from the sea, farm, specialist producer or brewer Many of the accommodation providers, pubs and cafes use produce from the doorstep, so whether you eat out or in, it is possible to have almost zero food miles.
