Must-visit in Cornwall, UK! The Fairytale Fishing Village of Polperro.

Location: Southern Cornwall, England 🚗Transportation: Take a train from London Paddington Station to Liskeard Station (about 4 hours), then transfer to a local bus/taxi for 30 minutes. For those driving, it's recommended to park at the parking lot 1 km outside the village and walk through the green path into the village! 🌟Three Unmissable Experiences in Polperro🌟 1️⃣ Stroll through the maze-like alleys and encounter rainbow-colored cottages The winding cobblestone streets are lined with candy-colored stone houses, each with window sills adorned with hydrangeas and geraniums, like a spilled palette! Be sure to check out the Polperro Heritage Museum to learn about the legendary stories of 18th-century fishermen and smugglers, and enjoy a panoramic view of the bay from the second floor. 2️⃣ Seafood Feast + English Afternoon Tea 🦞Must-try restaurants👉🏻 ▪️ Michelle's Restaurant: Lobster pasta with white wine sauce, paired with Cornish creamy potatoes, is a must! Remember to book a window seat in advance. ▪️ The Blue Peter Inn: Garlic mussels pot with cider at this century-old pub, only £20 per person for a filling meal! 🍰For afternoon tea, head to Crumplehorn Inn for scones with clotted cream and elderflower fizz, and take Instagram-worthy photos under the rose wall! 3️⃣ Cliff Hiking to Explore the 'Smugglers' Cave' Hike 20 minutes east along the South West Coast Path to find the legendary natural cave where smugglers hid their treasures! Along the way, you can overlook the emerald bay and see seals basking in the sun🐾 (For those with good stamina, challenge the 7-mile Lansallos route through the bluebell forest for a healing experience.) 🏡Accommodation Recommendations|Stay in a Fairytale Cottage ▪️ The Crumplehorn Inn: Vintage four-poster bed + stone fireplace, with a window view of the babbling brook. ▪️ Talland Bay Hotel: A white manor on the cliff! 180° sea view terrace with a bubble bath. 📸Photography Tips 👗Outfit: Light-colored long dress + straw bag! Perfect match with blue and white or colorful cottages. ⏰Timing: The light is softest an hour after sunrise or before sunset, and the beach reveals a mirror effect at low tide. 🎞️Best Spots: ▫️Chapel Rock for silhouette shots ▫️Fore Street corner with the pink café as the background ▫️Harbor with wooden boats and lighthouse in the same frame 🚩Nearby Attractions If you have more time, drive 30 minutes to the Jurassic Coast to check out Durdle Door, the 'Elephant Trunk Hill' of the UK! Or head west for an hour to St Ives and take a glass-bottom boat to see dolphins leaping out of the waves🐬 💌Polperro feels like a utopia forgotten by time, without the hustle and bustle of trendy shops, only the salty sea breeze and the aroma of coffee. It's a place to slow down and listen to the old captain's story about the waves and courage... 🌟Save this post and don't miss Polperro on your next Cornwall trip!
