Several Cornwall locations have won different categories at VisitEngland's 2022 Excellence Awards.

This includes Mylor Sailing and Powerboat School winning the Accessible and Inclusive Tourism Award as well as Experience of the Year, and Three Mile Beach coming out on top in the New Tourism Business of the Year Award.

Additionally, Glynn Barton came runner-up in the Self-Catering Accommodation of the Year Award and The Idle Rocks picked up the bronze medal in the Small Hotel of the Year Award.

VisitEngland has these Excellence Awards to "celebrate the very best of England" with that encompassing "the best places to visit with the kids, tantalise your taste buds, spend your days and snooze off in at night".

Mylor Sailing and Powerboat School

Describing the Mylor Sailing and Powerboat School VisitEngland said: "Open all year round, this Royal Yachting Association-accredited sailing school encourages engagement in sports by removing as many barriers to sailing and powerboating as possible.

"The staff at Mylor Sailing and Powerboat School are fully trained and their fleet – made up of dinghies, keelboats and powerboats – includes a wheelchair-friendly powerboat.

"On top of that, they’ve even installed a hoist to help less-mobile trainees onto the sailboats."

Three Mile Beach

In describing Three Mile Beach VisitEngland said: "Here, doing nothing and doing everything live together in harmony. Inspired by laid-back California beach houses, the interiors are sourced directly from local artisans in Cornwall, Morocco, India and Mexico. 

"Not sure what to add to the itinerary? Upgrade your stay with private surf lessons, coasteering or e-bike hire, and have a night off from cooking with a private chef, a visit to the on-site street food area or a pizza night experience.
