Tucked into a quiet Cornish valley, Nancarrow Farm feels like a well-kept local secret. By day, the fields thrive with activity – lambs grazing, vegetables pulled from dark soil, hives heavy with honey. Come evening, the barns fill with the scent of wood smoke and the chatter of guests gathered at long, communal tables. Plates are piled high with whatever’s in season – wood-roasted meats, just-picked greens, still-warm bread – all straight from the farm. Stay the night in a restored room, wake to birdsong, and you’ll understand why people come for dinner and end up staying for the night.

Right in the centre of Newquay, Barouche is the town’s most stylish spot for a bottle of wine and some late-night atmosphere. The interiors are dark and brooding, the lighting is just the right amount of low, and with a wine selection that has been given a serious amount of thought, it's easy to find the perfect pairing for their inventive Portuguese-inspired small plates. 

Tucked away in Newquay behind an unassuming frontage, this pintxo bar has a Basque accent and a Cornish soul. Inside, the space is pared-back but stylish; the plates are small but clever and full of the the freshest local produce. Sip a Vesper Martini or a house-made blackberry spritz and graze your way through a sharing platter or two. 

A luxurious country retreat just a few metres from the beach, The Nare Hotel's location couldn't be more picturesque. Swim in the outdoor pool with views across the bay or discover Cornwall from one of the hotel boats. When dinner time rolls around you don't have to venture far for a fine dining feast.
