Short Breaks in Cornwall

Cornwall is the ideal location for a short break or weekend getaway. Cornwall is famed for its beautiful beaches, quaint coastal towns and wonderful scenery, all of which awaits on a Cornish break with Red Letter Days.

Boasting some of the most popular surfing spots in the UK, a Cornwall short break is the perfect opportunity to try a surf lesson and learn new skills along the way. The crystal-clear waters are excellent for paddleboarding and kayaking and there are also a number of boat trips that set sail each day to get closer to the diverse marine life.As well as the aquatic activities, Cornwall is an incredible location to explore on foot. The Cornish Coast Path follows the entire coastline around Cornwall, which provides magnificent views across the land and sea. Along these paths, there are plenty of opportunities to stop off and sample some of the Cornish delicacies. From decadent cream teas to hearty Cornish pasties, this part of the world is truly a foodie’s paradise. In Cornwall, only the freshest seafood will do – restaurant menus are known to change daily, based on what is caught that very morning. From MICHELIN-starred restaurants to local eateries, Cornwall has it all. After a long day exploring, there’s no better way to unwind than by settling down to enjoy a mouth-watering meal while the sun sets. At Red Letter Days, we offer a number of short-break options in Cornwall. From St Ives and Newquay to Padstow and wonderful locations in-between, there are a number of luxury hotel breaks, boutique weekend getaways and glamping breaks available that are ideal for exploring this magnificent corner of the UK.

Two night break for two

We stayed at The George Hotel Chollerford. Super dog friendly, lovely room, friendly staff, comfortable bar area. The downside was the swimming pool was out of action. Would definitely stay there again.

Amazing

Me and my partner stayed in a pod and we were amazed by how nice it was. There is a lovely river as you look out the door and was very quiet and relaxing. The toilet/shower facilities were spotless. Loads to do in the area. .

One night memorable break

With a range of locations and hotels to chose from, we opted for the Talbot Hotel in the lovely market town of Ledbury. The Talbot like many of the building in the town is a picturesque timber framed building bursting witj character. Our room was a good size and very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was excellent and the staff were very friendly, making us feel welcome from the moment we stepped through the door. Would definitely recommend this for an overnight break.

Lovely relaxing tea

Staff were friendly and welcoming from the start. The restaurant looked amazing, complete with pianist. And the tea was to die for. I've never had such tasty sandwiches and cakes. There was so much we went home with a doggy bag each.

I would highly recommend the experience. The pod was very clean and bigger than expected. I was situated in a delightful area, in a large wooded area for beautiful walks. Whitemead is such a remarkable place and the staff were extremally helpful.

Very good gift

I received vouchers from work as a gift. I used them for theatre tickets to see the musical Back to the Future. It was wonderful and the children were delighted, but when ordering the tickets, I entered the wrong email address, and Red Letter Days sent them to the wrong address. I tried to explain this numerous times and spent hours talking to customer service, but unfortunately, no one could help me. A terribly unpleasant experience. I had to explain everything only at the theatre under stress.Terrible customer service!!!
