Thinking about Lostwithiel Cornwall? Check out our best 10 attractions including Spectacular Beaches with photographs.



 

       Location, Location, Location 

This visit to Cornwall was a business trip, so we chose The Fowey Valley Hotel in Lostwithiel due to its ideal location for us, although Lostwithiel is a small town it’s location is well positioned if you plan on visiting the local scenic quaint harbours and beaches. 

The Fowey Valley is a very reasonably priced hotel with good facilities, and comfortable furnishings, the food was very good, both the evening meal and breakfast with a good selection.                              We found the staff very efficient friendly and accommodating.

There is plenty of free parking on site, but make sure you remember to register your car at reception to avoid fines. 

We visited the following places before we ran out of time.

- Looe, 26 minute drive

- Polkerris, 15 minute drive (a lovely place to enjoy a warm evening either in the Rashleigh Arms or sat on the beach enjoying a pizza from Sam's right next to the beach. )

- Par Sands Beach, 15 minute drive 

(Couple pics in there from St Ives aswell) 

Other popular sites close to Lostwithiel are The Eden project (around 11 minute drive) Restormel Castle (5 minute drive) Tintagel Castle (49 minute drive) and Lanhydrock House and Garden (10 minute drive)

Stirling Castle and the William Wallace Monument, the best start to our Scottish Castle Tour

STIRLING CASTLE AND THE WILLIAM WALLACE MONUMENT First stop on our Scottish 4 day Castle Tour (by car) Stirling Castle seemed familiar to me, mainly, because it reminded me of Edinburgh Castle, a very impressive position perched atop its intrusive crag, well preserved also, we really enjoyed our visit with lots of different areas to see and explore. The views are stunning and stretch as far as the eye can see in all directions, the location of the castle was no accident. You can see Bridgehaugh, right next to Stirling Old Bridge which was the site of the battle of Stirling Bridge where in 1297 William Wallace defeated an English army.  With its place in history, we had to visit on our trip. Whilst in Stirling, we ignorantly stumbled across the William Wallace Monument, due to its unique shape, design and significance we found it to be another highlight of the trip. It’s a must, it’s quite daunting when you climb to the top and realise how high up you are. The views are very impress...
