This month I thought I'd do something a little different.
The English Riviera BID Company are our local destination marketing company which means all the tourism businesses jointly fund them to market the English Riviera for us to attract more visitors to our beautiful bay.
As part of their work, they run the official website at www.englishriviera.co.uk and also produce a blog at https://www.englishriviera.co.uk/be-inspired/english-riviera-blog
I thought I'd pick out a few of their recent blogs that you might find interesting:
We're always telling you how many things there are to do locally. With four local theatres and a whole host of events and tourist attractions you'll certainly never get bored on the English Riviera. Here's their blog on what's going on in March:

It wouldn't be right if I didn't highlight also the blog they wrote to celebrate us becoming Best B&B in the World in January this year:

We often recommend our guests visit Cockington Court craft centre which is in a lovely chocolate box village and we can provide directions for a short circular walk. Here's a profile on just one of the many talented makers:
