Cornwall The Destination for Your Sports Tour?

Categories: Sports Tours

Rugby, cricket, beaches, great food and some of the most spectacular scenery in the UK. What’s not to like?

When you think about a sports tour, your first thought might be Ireland, France or one of the UK’s big rugby cities. But what if your next tour was a little closer to home?

Cornwall offers everything you need for a brilliant rugby or cricket tour — competitive local opposition, fantastic facilities, beautiful destinations and plenty to do when you’re not on the pitch. And because we’re based in the South West, it’s a destination we know particularly well.

Rugby Tours in Cornwall

Cornwall has a proud rugby tradition, with clubs and teams across the county offering plenty of opportunities for visiting sides to test themselves against local opposition.

A rugby tour to Cornwall gives your team the chance to play somewhere different, experience a new style of rugby and meet local players, while enjoying the famous Cornish hospitality along the way.

And when the final whistle goes, the day doesn’t have to end. Head to the coast, enjoy a team meal or explore one of Cornwall’s many towns and beaches.

Cricket in Cornwall

For a cricket tour, Cornwall is hard to beat.

Imagine spending the afternoon playing a competitive fixture on a beautiful Cornish ground before heading out to explore the coast or enjoying a meal together in the evening. It’s sport with a pretty impressive backdrop.

We can arrange fixtures against local cricket clubs matched to your team’s ability, creating a tour that’s competitive, enjoyable and a little different from the usual cricket season.

More than just the sport

The best sports tours aren’t all about what happens on the pitch.

Cornwall gives you plenty of options for filling the rest of your itinerary, whether that’s surfing, beach activities, sightseeing, team challenges or simply finding a great spot for some food and a few drinks.

Depending on your tour, you could:

  • Take on a local rugby club
  • Play cricket against Cornish opposition
  • Hit the beach or explore the coastline
  • Try surfing or other water sports
  • Enjoy a team bonding activity
  • Enjoy a meal together at one of many top restaurants
  • Explore Cornwall’s most beautiful coastlines
