Lostwithiel, Cornwall's Hidden Treasure

This beautiful medieval town which is knee deep in history, is one of the most vibrant and lively communities in the county. Whether you’re here for the day or down on holiday, Lostwithiel is the ideal base to explore breathtaking countryside and discover the unspoilt beaches of south east Cornwall. There's plenty of accommodation from hotels and pubs to cosy b&bs and self catering cottages.

Antiques shops and regular fairs have made Lostwithiel the antiques capital of Cornwall. Now, with a choice of delis, lifestyle shops, excellent restaurants and pubs plus an award winning produce market, the town is attracting a growing number of visitors and tourists. With good road links, a mainline railway station in the centre of town, and ample free parking, visiting couldn’t be easier. It's not just the shops which draw the crowds, Lostwithiel's calendar is full of festivals celebrating food, music, arts, antiques, beer and cider.

Visit Lostwithiel and you’ll want to stay. Keep coming back and you’ll not want to leave. This beautiful ancient town really is the hidden treasure of Cornwall.
