Your Accommodation
Rosemundy House Hotel
St Agnes, Cornwall, TR5 0UF.
Tel: 01872 552101.
The hotel has been a favourite of ours since we first visited in the year 2000. This very private hotel has been family run for years and has a very relaxing and comfortable air about it.
Beautiful quiet lounges for relaxing, superb Tom Noggi restaurant with excellent cuisine, well equipped comfortable bedrooms with bath or shower.
Set in its own grounds in the centre of St Agnes. The village is set back from the cliffs by three quarters of a mile; Trevaunance Cove is the nearest thing to a sheltered harbour that this inhospitable coast affords. Strewn with old mine workings, copper and tin ore were once shipped from the cove.
Tour Itinerary
Day 1: Depart Local Area
After boarding your luxury coach, your holiday has now begun. You start your journey by travelling westward with stops en-route for lunch. Continuing your journey through beautiful countryside, to the Cornish town of St Agnes and the Rosemundy House Hotel where you will spend the next five nights with dinner, bed and breakfast.
Day 2: Port Isaac
Today we spend time on the North Cornish Coast. We travel to Port Isaac, a traditional fishing village with a vibrant local community and home to the TV series Doc Martin starring Martin Clunes. It's a truly picturesque village with narrow winding streets lined with whitewashed cottages that head down to the harbour where you can watch local fishermen landing their daily catch of fish, crab and lobsters. (It's a gentle downhill from coach drop off point) From here we travel to the Healy's Cider Farm. Healy's is a working cider farm steeped in history, which has been brewing award-winning ciders, wines, and fruit juices for over 25 years. We then return to the hotel to relax before dinner.
Day 3: Pencarrow House & Gardens & Cream Tea
Today we visit the lovely Pencarrow House & Gardens. The Cornish name for Pencarrow means 'head of the valley' or 'high fort' and as you drive down the mile-long carriageway lined with Rhododendrons, Camellias, and Hydrangeas you go through the Iron Age hill fort. Pencarrow House & Gardens has 500yrs of history, one of the great historic houses in Cornwall. Their heritage stretches over centuries, and the Georgian mansion is still occupied by the same family who settled here in 1500's. The gardens are beautiful whatever the season with Iron Age hill fort, the sunken Italian Garden with a quatrefoil fountain, Icehouse, palm house and an ancient Cornish cross, and much more. Later we will have a cream tea in the Peacock cafe.
Day 4: Land's End & St Ives
Land's End is mainland Britain's most south-westerly point and one of the country's most famous landmarks. From the 200-foot-high granite cliffs that raise out of the Atlantic Ocean you can gaze across to the Longships Lighthouse, the Isles of Scilly 28 miles away and beyond that, North America. Returning via St Ives, this is an attractive and very popular fishing village. Quaint old houses and winding alleys cluster beneath the 120ft rough-hewn granite spire of the church, a fine building dating from 15C. From here we return to the hotel.
Day 5: Half Day in Truro
This morning we go to Cornwall's administrative capital and Cathedral City, Truro. Centre stage is Truro Cathedral with its impressive gothic towers dominating the skyline. In its shadow, a warren of compact streets is home to an impressive array of independent traders. From boutiques to bookshops and designer interiors to delicatessens, this great little city offers a unique shopping experience. The cafe culture is impressive too, with hip coffee houses, artisan ice creameries and cocktail bars dotted across the centre. Returning to hotel.
Day 6: Day of Departure
After a hearty breakfast and cases have been loaded onto the coach. It is time to say farewell to your hosts at the Rosemundy House Hotel. Retracing your steps, with comfort stops en-route. You will arrive in your local area, late afternoon early evening.
