As one of the most breathtaking areas of the UK, Cornwall is the ideal location for those couples looking for the ultimate in romantic getaways. Whether you’re in the first flushes of romance or you’re looking to reignite a spark, Cornwall has something for everyone. From adrenaline adventures to sunset drinks on the beach, there’s nowhere in the country quite like Cornwall, and couples will find plenty of ways to enjoy the county and each other.
If you’re looking for the best romantic break that will forge even stronger loving connections, then here are the best places to head to in stunning Cornwall.
Get the Blood Pumping
There’s nothing like a burst of adrenaline to get the blood pumping, and that’s good news for couples. Adrenaline can help you feel closer together, which is why theme parks are a popular option for couples.
In Cornwall, you should head to Menheniot, where you’ll find the aptly named Adrenaline Quarry. There, you can enjoy the zip wire, quarry climbing, or even some axe throwing!
Theatre Going
If you want something a little more sedate, then wrap up warm, pack a bottle of wine, and head to Minack Theatre. It’s not just a great open-air theatre to propose in, it’s also a truly stunning location that has the Atlantic ocean in the background.
You might even spot some dolphins as you enjoy a classic performance!
Watch the Sunset
There are plenty of beaches to relax on in Cornwall, and if you do some planning first, you might not even have to head too far from your accommodation. Look amongst the many cottages with sea views at Portscatho Holidays to spend your time away, and you can sip wine and enjoy the sea views without even going outside.
Getting Wet
You wouldn’t want to spend time in Cornwall with at least trying a little surfing. Head to Newquay and take a lesson together. Whether you turn out to be a natural or you spend more time in the water than catching a tube, you’re bound to laugh a lot, and you get to dry each other off afterward!
Enjoy the Night Skies
When the sun goes down, Cornwall’s skies come to life. There are some amazing spots for those that want to enjoy the night sky, but you should definitely try getting to St Agnes. Not only is it known as a Dark Sky Site, which means that there’s very little light pollution, but it’s also a beautiful spot all by itself. Pack a blanket and some drinks, and enjoy the spectacle of the universe.
Eating Out
Of course, there’s always going to be something wonderfully romantic about getting dressed up and heading out to a good restaurant for the evening. You’re spoiled for choice in Cornwall, but if you’re after a little Instgrammability, then you can’t go wrong with Jamie Oliver’s Fifteen restaurant, or Restaurant Nathan Outlaw, with fish specialities that come straight from the waters around Cornwall.
If you’re planning a romantic getaway, then Cornwall should certainly be on the list. Tailor your romantic break to your interests as a couple, and you might never want to return home.
