Welcome to Cornwall in Focus

   I wanted to share my love of Cornwall with as many people as possible. This comprehensive website explores the unique land of Cornwall in the far southwest of the United Kingdom. To this end over 500 pages cover every aspect of Cornwall.

Learn all about Cornwall's Celtic Culture and Ancient History along with the ancient Cornish Language. There are pages dedicated to the many Megaliths and Stone Circles at Ancient Sites as well as links to Cornish Folklore at Myths and Legends.

Explore the spectacular scenery of the Cornish Coast and golden beaches with a section dedicated to walking the 296 miles of the Cornish Coastal Footpath. Detailed descriptions accompanied by well over a thousand digital photographs guide the enthusiast and the casual walker around the Cornish coast. Care has been taken to make the walks 'easily walkable' many with inland returns for added variety. Each description marks suggested car parking and suitable 'entry' and 'exit' points to the coast.

Former industries such as Fishing and Mining have now been superceded by Tourism as the main revenue earner for the county. Cornwall in Focus is currently building up a Mining Database to reflect the lasting legacy of all those who were part of Cornwall's heritage. Check out Where to Go for my favourite destinations and Local Events. Explore the 160 or so Cornish Beaches and the Photo Gallery pages. Visit and breathe in the beauty of the many Cornish Gardens. Stay in Quality Hotels, guest houses or selected bed and breakfast accommodation.

Our association with Encounter Cornwall.com allows the visitor to stay and explore the Cornish Coast with their self guided and supported walks. Visit that wonder of the modern world The Eden Project by bicycle or canoe. Supported coastal walks are now available throughout much of Cornwall. Other sections of this site explore more of the beautiful Cornish Landscape.

Our partnership with Dining in Cornwall allows visitors to search the definitive guide to eating out in Cornwall. Pause a while to Focus on Food, explore the best in Cornish Food & Drink or search for that special Place to Eat. Learn more by browsing through our Online Book Stores - each one relevant to the page you are on. It is possible to purchase books and maps online with one simple click via amazon.co.uk . There are links to Cornish Family History as well as Surf Forecasts and Surf Schools as well as the official Cornwall Tourist Board and Cornwall County Council.

What is it about Cornwall that makes it somewhere different? Is it the slower pace of life or the 'do it dreckly' attitude? It is so much more than just a Holiday destination.
