About Us

Our Values

Inside Cornwall magazine is the ultimate guide to what’s on in Cornwall. Started in 1990 by local journalist Ian Waghorn, it has grown rapidly from a 12-page booklet into the ‘Inside Cornwall’ we know and love now. From the very start, we have dedicated our time to finding the best events every month, especially those word-of-mouth gems that most of us would never hear about if we didn’t read Inside Cornwall. We also bring you informative features on the best food and drink, art, interiors and gardens in the county, so when you’re planning your next trip out you can put your feet up and tuck into a great read!

Alison Waghorn

Managing Editor

As co-owner and managing editor, Alison has her finger on the pulse of the business. She enjoys visiting other businesses in Cornwall and finding out about their stories and successes, as well as how they are facing up to the increasing number of challenges in our fast-changing world. A native of Penzance, Alison identifies strongly with Cornwall and believes there is no better place for her and Ian to bring up their two sons, Alex and Nicky. With a busy working and family life, she doesn’t have much spare time, but loves to keep up her fitness by cycling or walking around the Penzance area.

Favourite food A traditional roast with an ample selection of local seasonal vegetables
Favourite place Cornish coves, in particular Sennen and Prussia
Random fact Alison has always enjoyed sport and, although she now classes herself as mad and middle-aged, she really threw herself into her most recent challenge of abseiling and mountain biking on Dartmoor – very exhilarating!
