The Cornwall Hotel & Spa in St Austell was a long way from the destinations on day 2 & 3 so spent a great deal of time travelling by coach to destinations such as Lands End. The dinners in both hotels was not up to 4 star standard. On a couple of occasions the choice of food was limited and poorly cooked to the point of being inedible.

Interesting islands. Great to fly there not so good to come back by ferry. Ferry is too old to be crossing the Atlantic albeit only a small part but still too much for an ancient boat. Great weather meant that Cornwall was magnificent, not sure that it would have been so good in dodgy weather.
