Supporting the South West Coast Path

Supporting the South West Coast Path

At Budock Vean Hotel & Spa, we’re proud to support one of the UK’s most treasured walking routes – the South West Coast Path.

As a Mile Maker, we’re pleased to say that our donation to the South West Coast Path is equivalent to maintaining a mile between Falmouth and Budock Vean Hotel & Spa – a stretch many of our guests know and love.

Protecting Paths for Future Generations

With over 9 million visitors every year, the path requires regular upkeep to stay safe, accessible, and sustainable.

Our donation as a Mile Maker helps fund essential works such as path resurfacing, drainage improvements, signage, and habitat preservation. Every mile maintained supports biodiversity, promotes outdoor wellbeing, and ensures this iconic trail remains open for all.
