Featured on our Discover England: Cotswolds to the Cornwall Coast tour is the Marazion Hotel. Nestled on Cornwall’s coast, just steps from the tidal causeway to St Michael’s Mount, the Marazion Hotel is more than a place to rest - it’s the beating heart of its community. In this episode of our People Behind the Scenery series, we visit this family-run hotel where manager Karen and her team welcome guests with warmth, care, and unmistakable Cornish charm. From locally sourced art on the walls to fresh catch on the table, every detail here tells a story of connection to the land, the sea, and the people who call Marazion home. Add in cozy corners, king-size comfort, and the unforgettable flavors of their Cutty Sark restaurant, and it’s a retreat you’ll never want to leave.
