Let me send you a little chicken soup from Cornwall in this week’s blog. At the moment I think we all need some! At least for the soul at, as we begin our days in a new reality of living with Covid 19.
Eating out - the best pubs and restaurants for food and drink
Our personal recommendations for local pubs and restaurants for food and drink in West Cornwall that are within easy reach of Ednovean Farm.
Don't forget to read our little black book of great places to eat near Ednovean Farm, starting with the ones within walking distance of Ednovean Farm on Perranuthnoe and then out and about in West Cornwall.
A winter picnic
We took a winter picnic to a secluded cove beyond Perranuthnoe and watched the sun set behind St Michael’s Mount
A Pub supper for all seasons
There is a pub supper for every season here in West Cornwall. The only problem is which one to choose, so here’s seven of our favoirites just to start with.
Supper at Black’s Restaurant
We visited Black’s restaurant in Penzance recently for a final celebration of Christmas. Black’s is an intimate contemporary bistro, set in the most historic part of Penzance, just a stones throw from the harbour.
Explore the Helford village
To stroll through Helford village is to touch a scene beyond the picturesque. Helford has known life as a bustling port and as sleepy backwater. It inspired one of Cornwall’s best loved romantic writers, Daphne Du Maurier who honeymooned in Helford, to write Frenchman’s Creek.
Visit today and it is unchanged, just as romantically reflected, in the slow lazy waters of the river.

Here in west Cornwall we are spoilt with so many lovely sheltered harbours to visit for a seafood supper and we recently made our way around Mounts Bay to renew our […]
Supper at the Mackerel Sky Seafood bar, Newlyn
We had a longing for a treat this week and chose the Mackerel sky seafood bar in Newlyn for supper. After all, where would we find fresher fish than the nearest fishing port just across the bay from us where fish are auctioned at the market and sent to France, Spain and Portugal! Now it […]
St Michael’s Mount with Fish and Chips
We enjoyed watching the ever changing tide around St Michael’s Mount and the sunset, from the terrace of The Godolphin Arms in Marazion, along with a seaside supper of traditional Fish and Chips the other evening. Our evening was made even more special by the beautiful sailing boat moored just off of the mount but […]
Lobster with a sunset
We enjoyed a lobster supper accompanied with a beautiful sunset over the sea last night, when we ate supper at Ben Tunnicliffe’s new restaurant at Sennen Beach
The B&B Breakfast – a peek into the kitchen
One thing that puts the Breakfast “B” into B&B is the full British Breakfast to start the morning. It must be said the full English cooked Breakfast is mostly a holiday treat now in the British Isle for a more leisurely start to the day for guests, as the gulls call outside and the scent […]
