If you are looking for something a little bit different to do on your holiday why not go for a day trip to Scilly. We thought we would test it out and tell you all about it. The Scillonian sails at 9.15am and takes about 2.45 hours. No cars allowed on the ferry but there…
What a treat of a day this was. Roskorwell is a small but incredibly beautiful lavender farm that you can wander around and enjoy the field of purple, smell the wonderful scent in the air and hear the buzzing of all the bees. You can enjoy tea and home made cakes at the little cafe…

Half term sunshine! After lockdown what could be better than the freedom of travelling around in a camper experiencing the variety of landscapes, enjoying the history and being up close to all the beauty Cornwall has to offer.
