With the end of the year fast approaching, now’s the time to start planning your New Year’s Eve celebrations. We have featured some of our favourite spots to celebrate here in North Cornwall.
Port Isaac
The picturesque fishing village of Port Isaac has a lively atmosphere on New Year's Eve and popular with locals. Choose one of the local restaurants to start the evening with a delicious seafood dinner, such as The Mote. After dinner head to The Golden Lion and make the most of the live music. At midnight everyone spills outside to watch the firework display over the harbour.
The small streets of Port Isaac will be full of people bustling in and out of the cosy little pubs and restaurants
Polzeath
At The Waterfront in Polzeath, New Year's Eve is a merry evening full of good food and live music. Start your night early enough and you can enjoy views of the sun setting over the ocean. Join in as everyone counts down the seconds and cheers as the clock chimes midnight.
Located right in the centre of Polzeath, The Waterfront hosts a lively New Year's Eve party
Rock
The Mariners Public House overlooks the Camel Estuary in the heart of Rock. The menu is full of excellent local produce and paired with beers and ales from Sharp's Brewery, who are based just up the road. On New Year's Eve, The Mariners will be in the festive spirit with a live band.
From The Mariners you have a front row seat to the fireworks which are set off just across the estuary in Padstow
Wadebridge
Pick a spot by the fire and enjoy a drink or two at The Ship Inn or reserve a table at Bridge Bistro. At midnight, join the locals and be dazzled by the fireworks displays from the best viewing spot in town, the old bridge.

Padstow
Wrap up warm and board the passenger ferry from Rock to Padstow, the journey in itself is special as you sail past the bright lights that adorn the boats in the harbour. Once on the other side of the estuary, Rick Stein's Seafood Restaurant offers a special New Year’s Eve menu, or join the merry locals in one of the harbourside pubs. Book a local taxi for the journey home.
Make sure to step outside at midnight and watch as the fireworks light up the sky above Padstow
The St Tudy Inn
With the fire lit and a cosy atmosphere, there is nowhere better to celebrate the start of the New Year than in a traditional Cornish pub. The St Tudy Inn offers delicious rustic cuisine, excellent cocktails and will have live music on New Year's Eve.
