The best places to eat, stay, shop and visit in the South West

Win a great escape at The Wellington

The prize: A two-night stay for two people at The Wellington in Boscastle.
Closing date: October 31, 2025
The Wellington

The Wellington in Boscastle is one of the oldest coaching inns in Cornwall. It perches on the South West Coast Path and has been feeding and watering passersby since the 16th century

The Wellington pub, which is owned and run by St Austell Brewery, recently received a massive makeover and now offers significant swoon appeal as well as historical charm.

The bedrooms enjoy serious bougie factor. Plush natural materials, squishy beds and all the mod cons make The Wellington’s sleeping quarters a find for a dreamy getaway in this picturesque corner of Cornwall.

Boscastle is a fascinating village with wonky rooftops, crooked cottages and a picturesque harbour. It’s also home to the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic, quaint teashops and charming indie stores.

Walkers like to base themselves in the village as it’s surrounded by hiking routes through rugged countryside and along the coast.

Finish a day on the trail with a hearty dinner (a choice of pub-classic favourites or more contemporary dishes) and a pint of something good from the raft of St Austell Brewery beers.

For your chance to win a two-night stay for two people at The Wellington in Boscastle, simply answer the question below.
