Welcome to Kernow

Cornwall, in Cornish – in Kernewek

Dare you dream of Tintagel Castle, Boscastle’s Witchcraft Museum, St Nectan’s fairy glen?

Stone circles, neolithic settlements, quoits & fogous, sacred wells?

St Michael’s Mount, the endless shining ocean off Land’s End?

Subtropical gardens, tidal creeks? Post industrial ruins, mining heritage?

Traditional fishing settlements, peaceful sandy coves?

Locally caught seafood & high end galleries in picturesque ports?

Folk traditions & piratical pubs?

  • An excellent guide
    with interesting local knowledge

    We had no idea what to see & do in Cornwall, but she designed a tour for us that made for an enjoyable day.

  • Zoe’s Knowledge of the History, Flora & Culture of the Area is Encyclopedic..

    ..however it was her love & enthusiasm for Cornwall as much as her erudition which made this such a magic experience. Over the past 25 years we have been to various areas
    in the United Kingdom at least ten times.
    We have visited on our own & with our children both with & without driver/guides. We have been fortunate to have enjoyed many special experiences during these travels. 
    Having noted this, we both feel that there was something  truly unique & magic about our recent trip to Cornwall.
    While there were multiple factors which contribute to this magic, including the breathtaking scenery, the perfect weather & our timing (we were able to enjoy Padstow’s May Day Celebration), we both feel that the major factor which shaped our very positive experience was our guide.

  • Highly Recommend Zoe for Anyone Looking to Explore the Area with a
    Thoughtful, Customized Touch

    We had an absolutely fantastic experience in Cornwall thanks to Zoe Young. She was incredibly knowledgeable about all things Cornwall – history, culture, & hidden gems.
    Zoe‘s personable approach made the tour both engaging & enjoyable. What really stood out was how she tailored the experience to our interests, ensuring every stop was meaningful to us. Her passion for the region shone through & we left with a deep appreciation for Cornwall.
