Welcome
to the October issue of Cornwall Living...
s I write this now, orchards and vineyards across Cornwall have begun – or are just starting – to pick and harvest this year’s fruit, ready to be turned into cider or wine. In putting together this month’s cover feature, celebrating Cornwall’s fabulous range of drinks producers (page 18), we were amazed by the sheer diversity on offer. Of course, we always knew how fantastic our produce is, but it struck us just how well Cornwall’s drinks offering is performing not just across the UK, but around the globe. In recent months, several of the producers we have spoken to have received prestigious international accolades, including St Ives Cider’s gold at the World Cider Awards. The Isles of Scilly has a food and drink scene that is equally thriving. Ahead of the Taste of Scilly festival, we take a trip to the isles to sample some of the delicious roduce firsthand page 91). We love discovering vintage photography of life on the coast in days gone by, so were excited to pick up a copy of Tony Treglown’s fascinating new book about our hometown, Porthleven: a comprehensive history (page 134). Sadly Tony passed away just as the book published, however thankfully he lived to see this remarkable achievement come into print. This October the Cornwall Home Improvement & Self Build Show returns to the Royal Cornwall Showground (page 71 and once again we rovide the o cia guide. ou a so find our Kids Love Cornwall Living magazine inside this issue, bringing more ideas for families (page 111). s usua you find this issue brimming with wonderfu com etitions page 67), places to stay (page 104) and ideas for eating out (page 88). Enjoy!
