Visit all the Corners of Cornwall
Inspired by her passion for Cornwall, Jen started an Instagram page, Corners of Cornwall (@cornersofcornwall), to document the beautiful landscapes, coastal walks, and countryside scenes she captured. As it gained popularity, it motivated her to explore even more of this magnificent county. She began sharing detailed guides about the places she discovered, stayed, and explored, with the intention of helping others plan their own Cornish adventures.
"There's nothing quite like the satisfaction of planning and completing a new excursion and then documenting it for others to follow suit," says Jen.
In this article, Jen shares some of her favourite places in Cornwall to eat, swim, see wildflowers, visit the beach, watch the sunset, and go shopping.
Get to Know Jen
Are you from Cornwall?
Yes, born and raised Cornish! I grew up on Bodmin Moor on a farm. My family are farmers and I've always loved the moorland because of this. I left only temporarily for university but always knew Cornwall was home.
What are your hobbies?
I love walking, especially on the Cornish coastal path. I’m also a big fan of making things – whether it’s gardening, baking, or crafts – I’m always creating something with love and care.

Jen’s Favourite Cornish Places
🍴 Favourite Place to Eat
I run an Instagram account called Eat Drink Cornwall (@eatdrinkcornwall) highlighting Cornwall’s best foodie spots. One favourite is Nancarrow Farm near Truro – an organic farm with magical seasonal feast nights.

🌊 Favourite Place to Swim
I usually prefer tidal pools when walking solo – they feel safer than the open sea. Trevone tidal pool is a recent favourite for a calm morning dip.
🌸 Favourite Place to See Flowers
I adore coastal wildflowers like sea thrift, but my favourite spot has to be the Polly Joke poppies – they’re breathtaking in full bloom.

🏖️ Favourite Beach
Lantic Bay is magical – it’s not easy to reach, but that just makes the views and the peace all the more rewarding.
🌅 Favourite Sunset Spot
Holywell Bay is unbeatable for sunsets. I love climbing up the dunes, setting up a blanket, and watching the colours melt into the sea.
🛍️ Favourite Place to Shop
Falmouth is my go-to for independent boutiques and coastal charm. There’s always something beautiful and handmade to discover.
Do You Surf?
Not yet! I’m learning slowly, but for now, I find a lot of calm just watching surfers. It’s a real source of peaceful joy.

Favourite Harbour Town
Charlestown is special – beautiful boats, stunning harbour views, great food, and brilliant walking routes nearby.

If You Had to Move to a Corner of Cornwall...
I’ve always said Zennor. It’s wild, rugged, and utterly magical. It’s the total opposite of Bodmin Moor where I grew up, and I love it for that.
Nearby St Ives captures everything I adore about Cornwall – tropical water, golden beaches, winding lanes, and creative energy from all the small businesses. This piece of artwork reflects that joy perfectly.
