Set against rugged landscapes and dramatic coastlines, Cornwall will surely take your breath away. This scenic county settles on the southwestern tip of England and is home to charming coastal villages. Witness the land meeting the sky at Brown Willy, the highest reachable point in Cornwall. If you’re not keen on climbing hills, you can watch the romantic sunset from Bodmin Moor with the soaring peak as a picturesque backdrop. The best way to conclude your trip is by visiting Land’s End, a momentous destination perched at the end of Cornwall’s peninsula where the land ends and the sea begins. Make sure to snap a photo with the famous Land’s End marker to complete your journey.
