September Fruits and Foraging: In September, Cornwall’s hedgerows and woodlands burst with an abundance of wild fruits, offering a forager’s paradise. Blackberries drape over thorny brambles, their plump, juicy berries ranging from deep purple to glossy black. Wild apples and crab apples dangle from gnarled trees, perfect for homemade ciders and preserves. The tart sloes of the blackthorn appear, traditionally used to flavor gin. Elderberries hang in dark clusters, ready for syrups and wines, while rosehips add a splash of red to the landscape, rich in vitamin C. Check out our Botanical Drinks Blog for ideas!
Cozy Evenings: As nights draw in, gather around our signature campfires – a Higher Pendeen specialty. Stargaze with a warming Cornish hot chocolate or something more indulgent in hand. Experience the soul-soothing magic of fireside relaxation, a perfect way to unwind and connect with your fellow travellers.
Local Culture: Immerse yourself in Cornish life and traditional events like the St Mawgan Vintage Rally. Participate in lively harvest festivals and pub auctions, where you might find yourself in a friendly bidding war over a delicious home-baked loaf.
