About this activity

This self-guided Cornwall road trip is designed to show how the county’s coastline, historic towns and inland landscapes connect into one coherent journey rather than a collection of separate destinations.

Instead of piecing routes together yourself, the guide links Cornwall’s most iconic touring routes — the Atlantic Highway, the Penwith Peninsula and the Fal River region — into a clear travelling structure.

You can follow the full route across Cornwall or explore individual parts depending on timeframe. Along the way the guide connects harbour villages, Atlantic cliffs, beaches, maritime towns and historic inland landscapes that reveal the character of the county.

Rather than a rigid itinerary, the guide provides narrative context, route progression and flexible time-based planning ideas so you can adapt for coastal walks, scenic drives and changing weather.

With 12 months access included, you can start planning well before your trip and return to the guide whenever you need.

Itinerary

The Cornwall Road Trip Guidebook is a structured multi-day journey through one of Britain’s most distinctive coastal landscapes, built around the touring routes that define how Cornwall is best explored. Covering approximately 212 miles (340 km), with flexibility for shorter 3–10+ day trips. Distances are manageable, but coastal roads, detours and scenic stops reward slower travel. The Atlantic Highway (A39) – Cornwall’s most famous scenic drive linking Bude, Tintagel, Padstow and the north coast’s beaches, harbour towns and cliff landscapes. Penwith Peninsula & West Cornwall – Land’s End, the Minack Theatre and Mount’s Bay define this granite headland of Atlantic cliffs, fishing villages and historic coasts. Fal River & Bodmin Moor – Sheltered estuaries, maritime heritage and cathedral city streets lead inland toward Cornwall’s granite uplands. Each section includes narrative introductions, route structure and time-based planning ideas. This self-guided online road trip guide helps you plan and explore Cornwall at your own pace. With 12 months included, access begins from the selected booking date — choose a date that allows time for planning rather than your travel date.
