Specialities
Cornish PastyΒ β you canβt come to Cornwall without trying an amazing Cornish Pasty! Itβs a matter of Cornish Pride and personal taste, but we recommend Roweβs bakery in St Austell, Pearnβs Pasties in Stickerβs Post Office, or a hand-made pasty from a local butcher.
ButchersΒ β we highly recommend the multi-award winning Charlieβs Butchers in Tywardreath, as well as Kittows of Holmbush (located near St Austell).
Fresh FishΒ β Cornwall has a lot of coastline, so itβs no surprise that the seafood is excellent here! Thereβs nothing better than freshly caught fish, and Mevagissey is the closest place to go. Meet the fishermen and buy it straight from Mevagissey Wet Fish on the quay!Β Alternatively you can order online fromΒ Wing of St MawesΒ and have your selection delivered to Bosinver.
Ice CreamΒ β aΒ holiday isnβt a holiday without an ice cream or two! Try outΒ Roskillyβs LtdΒ on the beautiful Lizard peninsular for tasty treat. Or tryΒ Callestick FarmβsΒ amazing ice creams near Truro.
