Cornwall Christmas Gift Guide

From unique jewellery to campfire kits and cushions, we’ve rounded up some of the best Christmas gifts that Cornwall's small businesses have to offer.

Cornwall is full of amazing small businesses and talented creators, which makes Christmas shopping an absolute delight. We’ve created our Cornwall Christmas Gift Guide to help you find great presents that your nearest and dearest will love.

This year, it’s more important than ever to support our small creative businesses. When you shop local, you know that every single item is made or sourced with care, by a maker or small business who will do a happy dance when they receive your order! So this Christmas, shop local from Cornwall based businesses and artists, and discover unique pieces that you won’t find anywhere else.
