White Cloud works with holiday accommodation providers throughout Cornwall, supporting cottages, apartments, guest houses and other places to stay across this beautiful part of the country.
North Cornwall is especially popular with visitors, with glorious beaches such as Polzeath, which is excellent for surfing and family days by the sea. Rock Beach and Daymer Bay are close by, at the mouth of the Camel Estuary, with Wadebridge, Port Isaac and Padstow all within easy reach.
Padstow is now one of Cornwall’s best-known places to stay, combining its history as a fishing port with excellent places to eat, beautiful views and easy access to the Camel Trail. The town has a wide range of holiday accommodation, from harbourside cottages to B&Bs and self-catering properties within walking distance of the harbour.
The mild coastal climate around Padstow, Rock and the Camel Estuary allows many gardens to thrive, although exposed conditions and salt-laden winds can make regular care especially important. For holiday homes, private gardens and coastal properties, Duchy Gardens provides garden maintenance, planting schemes, soft landscaping and ongoing garden care across Padstow, Rock, Polzeath, Wadebridge and the surrounding North Cornwall area.
For those closer to Wadebridge, The Cornish Garden Company is another local gardening business working with gardens in and around the Camel Estuary area.
If you head further inland towards Bodmin Moor, you will find the secluded Pencarrow estate near Washaway. It is one of the most distinctive historic houses in Cornwall, with gardens that are beautiful throughout the year and especially well known for their bluebells in spring.
Heading south from here takes you towards St Austell, a hub for a wide range of local and specialist businesses. One example is Shaw Van Conversions, a Cornish company specialising in refrigerated vans, including vehicle conversions and ready-to-use refrigerated vehicles for businesses that need reliable temperature-controlled transport.
Over the years, Cornwall has appeared many times on both the large and small screen. TV series set in Cornwall include the two versions of Poldark, while Rosamunde Pilcher’s novels have also brought Cornish scenery to audiences overseas through a much-loved German television series.
House of the Dragon, the prequel to Game of Thrones, has used locations throughout the county, while Doc Martin has consistently shown off the scenery of North Cornwall.
Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None includes locations around Newquay and the Lizard Peninsula. Wycliffe was also filmed in Cornwall, as were two screen versions of Jamaica Inn.
