Cornwall Holidays are Great
So, holiday in Cornwall, took us a day and a bit to get here, staying overnight at the Trotworth Hotel - can't say enough about how lovely this hotel is, if you ever get the chance to stay, do it!
Beautiful setting in a mature woodland, arboretum, one of the oldest in England, lovely conversion and extension of the buildings to create the new rooms, spa, wedding reception rooms etc.
Food is top class too, rabbit pate, steaks done to perfection and the puddings selection, omg!
So on to Cornwall and St Mellion Golf and Spa resort, staying in one of the cottages has been great. Come and go when you fancy, take advantage of free golf and access to the expansive gym and swimming pool, sauna, hot tub etc.
I'd say the only drawback was the amount of steps to the cottage...especially after a long day sightseeing. It did mean that we could basically behave like we were at home as no-one overlooked the property :)
Driving was a bit scary as well, with the lovely high hedges to both sides of the road, blind corners, one track roads and meeting various tractors, Tesco to You lorries, locals driving very fast. We both think that our satnav took an insane delight in sending us down the smallest roads and tracks she could just for the lols as when you look at a map, Cornwall has lots of better class roads we could have taken...
I highly recomend visiting Padstow, St Michales Mount, St Ives, all the cream teas and local pubs meals you can handle and give Newquay a miss.
Still three days left, so some more scary driving and sightseeing left :)
