THIS year's sixth Boscastle Food, Arts and Crafts Festival brags eight extraordinarily talented chefs form Cornwall. Demonstrating their culinary skills throughout the two day event, Saturday 1 and Sunday, October 2.

The festival, organised by the Boscastle Chamber of Trade and Commerce and a team of volunteers, has proved to be a great success over the years raising thousands of pounds for local charities.

Last year's charitable contributions exceeded £8,800. This year being no exception to the rule, hence the fantastic line up of chefs, a host of stalls selling tasty produce and original arts and crafts. Admission to all events is £3 and under 16s are free with an adult. There is also free park and ride.
