WHAT’S HAPPENING IN THE TOURISM INDUSTRY

MORE COUNTRIES ADDED TO THE QUARANTINE LIST FOR BRITS

The large crust of the Cornish pasty provided a solution: the ‘handlebar’ was easy to hold onto but could be discarded afterwards, so the miners didn’t fall ill.

If you’re looking for a traditional, locally-produced pasty to sample, try Morris Pasties (morris-pasties.co.uk). The recipe for their hand-crimped beauties is held secret with the family solicitor.

For bigger meals, one spot worth visiting is Bush Pepper

in the heart of Newquay. Chef Chris Brookes creates Australianinfluenced cuisine using some of Cornwall’s finest ingredients.

Nothing beats their delicious Dukkah Eggs on toasted sourdough, using Cornish free range poached eggs, dukkah, smashed avocado, halloumi and a wedge of lemon. A great morning fix before heading out for a surf. (Evening menu options from £17 and a bottle of wine from £18.)

After a long day of exploring, head to the Carnmarth Hotel for one of their signature Cornish Bramble cocktails, while soaking up the stunning ocean views. (Mains from £12 and cocktails from £8.)

This cosy spot overlooks Fistral beach, whose wild waves give way to a gently lapping tide beneath the sensational Cornish sunset.

A perfect end to a glorious glamping experience, in a town full of character, in a county brimming with beauty.

It was made in response to the spread of the virus, with the latest 14-day cumulative figures showing 32.1 Covid-19 cases per 100,000 people in France, compared with 18.5 in the UK. The move means people travelling from the European country will have to isolate for two weeks when they return to the UK. The Netherlands, Monaco, Malta, Turks & Caicos and the island of Aruba have also been added to the quarantine list. The new measures came into force from 4am on August 15.
