Moving to or from Cornwall?

Let M&G Do the Heavy Lifting (Before the A30 Holiday Traffic Sends You Round in Circles)

Welcome to Cornwall — England’s coastal gem, where rugged cliffs meet sandy coves and the A30 keeps London just about reachable. With around half a million residents who know the back roads to Padstow better than any sat‑nav, Cornwall blends seaside calm with a thriving tourist economy.

Schools That Actually Impress

Cornwall’s education mix includes Truro School (the independent heavyweight), Penair School, and Falmouth School, alongside strong primaries dotted across the county. Translation: your kids will get a solid education, and you’ll have plenty of parents comparing exam results at the school gates.

Economy With a Balance

Cornwall’s economy is powered by tourism, hospitality, fishing, and creative industries, with growing renewable energy projects along the coast. Add in commuters heading to Truro and Plymouth, and you’ve got a county that’s practical, connected, and quietly thriving.

Things to Do (Besides Counting Seagulls)

  • Eden Project – giant biomes filled with rainforest and Mediterranean landscapes.

  • St Michael’s Mount – a tidal island with history and views to spare.

  • Local favourites – Rick Stein’s seafood in Padstow, surfing at Newquay, and coastal walks for fresh air and photo ops.

Moving Services That Keep It Simple

At M&G, we can’t stop the summer traffic jams on the A30, but we can make moving day a whole lot easier:

  • Full packing services

  • Secure, insured storage (ideal if your chain moves slower than a Cornish pasty queue)
