Cornwall in spring can be the most bewitchingly romantic time to visit the county. Our famous spring gardens unfurl and shine in their fullest glory. Our seaside villages are still shaking off the quiet of winter and have an air of space and calm. You can even swan up to a restaurant and walk right in without the merest hint of ‘did you book?’ It’s the time, before the arrival of summer crowds, when our county feels like a whispered secret. And there’s no better place to base yourself for a day trip or a week-long visit than Penzance, the portside town that’s the gateway to Cornwall’s spring g ..read more

How about a cosy Christmas in Penzance? Our portside town offers the best independent shopping in Cornwall, intimate, piratey pubs with crackling fires and the chicest eateries this side of the M25. Add our romantic location at the tip of England and some curiously Celtic get-togethers and you have a Christmas venue like nowhere else. Come for a day trip. Settle in for a week. But do visit. We’re warming up the mulled wine and pasties for you already… Experience the Christmas lights   There’s a Dickensian feel to Christmas in Penzance, with strings of golden lights spanning narrow stree ..read more

Does the idea of wandering on remote Cornish moors in near-pitch darkness appeal to you? Perhaps not. But how about this? At any moment, you might stop and look up to see a silvery explosion of stars and celestial bodies. So many of them, and so dense, they seem to come at you in waves as your eyes adjust to the wonder. Tens. Hundreds. Thousands. Raining down upon you. This is no ordinary glimpse at a star or two, pecking at the night sky – the kind of thing you might see in a town. This is stargazing in Cornwall at West Penwith. An extraordinary, cosmic experience. In 2021, this southwestern ..read more

Penzance is out there. And we mean that both geographically and artistically. Our position at the westernmost tip of the UK – among wild Celtic moors and even wilder seas – has bred a spirit of creative, bohemian freedom. It’s made Penzance one of the UK’s leading destinations for visual arts. In this post, we’re going to look back over 1000 years of inspiring art in our streets, gardens, museums and galleries. On the way, we’ll meet Newlyn School classics from Norman Garstin and surrealistic pear halves from Jim Moir. We’re also getting help from Penzance’s Cornwall Contemporary gallery owne ..read more

So… you came to West Cornwall to get away from it all? That can be tricky in the height of summer on our most popular beaches. On our high spots, on the other hand? Now you’re talking. Just a stone’s throw from Penzance sit five remote hills where you’ll take in huge swathes of handsomely rugged Cornish moorland. And you’ll have them almost entirely to yourself. These bewitching hills are scattered with granite boulders, and washed in purple heathers and golden gorse. They are also home to many of the 700 or so Neolithic and Bronze Age structures across the 115 miles of West Penwith. Breathtak ..read more

Hi, I have just spotted that my gallery does not appear to be on the Love Penzance website under Arts and Culture (and yet galleries in St Ives and St Just are) I’ve had Cornwall Contemporary for 17 years now and work so hard to promote the arts in Penzance to a worldwide audience (regularly shipping paintings to America and Australia) and the artist Jim Moir – otherwise known as the comedian Vic Reeves – returns for his second solo show with me next week. It would be wonderful if you feel that you might be able to include Cornwall Contemporary – along with other galleries such as The Exchange ..read more
