All about Penzance

Here at All Glass Cornwall we know that we are based in a beautiful part of the world. So much so, that Cornwall is one of the biggest tourist hotspots in the entire UK. But what makes it so wonderful? Perhaps it is the variety of towns and villages throughout the county, all offering their very own take on Cornish charm.

One of our favourites, although don’t tell the rest, is Penzance. So, with this in mind, we have put together our guide to why we love Penzance, and why we think you should too!

A historic port with some wonderful weather

One of the things that makes Penzance so popular has to be its location. A historic port based on the south facing shores of Mount’s Bay, Penzance is known to have one of the mildest climates in the entire UK. Whilst we know it isn’t quite Spain, if you are looking for mild weather, then Penzance is a great choice.

St Michael’s Mount

There is something truly fascinating about St Michael’s Mount, particularly when the tide comes in and the medieval pathways disappear underneath the waves. Tourists in their droves head to the castle to explore its history, and if they are feeling energetic enough, even climb up the steep paths to be rewarded with the amazing views.

The most beautiful beaches

Plenty of the people who come to Cornwall for a break, do so for the beaches. Penzance is located ideally close to some of the best beaches in the entire UK. We love Perranuthnoe, Lamorna Cove, Kenneggey Sands and Praa Sands, although these are some of the more tourist led beaches. If you want to find something secluded, then you will also find some amazing beaches off the beaten track throughout the rest of the country.

Fantastic places to eat

One thing that you will quickly realise about Cornwall is that it isn’t all about the surf and sand. Cornwall is also a fantastic place to explore and eat your way around. There are a variety of amazing restaurants out there to try, many of which offer locally caught seafood which you can indulge in. That said, every cuisine seems to be catered for in Cornwall, which makes it the ideal foodie destination to try out.
