Welcome to Evocative Cornwall

With its proud industrial heritage, rugged coastline, stunning beaches and enchanting moorland, it is not surprising that nearly one third of Cornwall is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

We hope to share some of that beauty with you through our Evocative Cornwall calendar and range of images and cards.

All our products are made in Cornwall – this is of great importance to us. Our values are to be ethical, fair and environmental in everything that we do. Our aim is to share the beauty of Cornwall’s landscape, respect its heritage and contribute positively to its future.

Our products include a unique calendar and range of greetings cards, with images taken from the county’s places of outstanding natural beauty. The greetings cards are designed to be multi-purpose, deliberately left blank so that the message can be personalised. The images are real, soulful and evocative.

The unique Evocative Cornwall calendar has become a ‘must have’ for thousands of people all over the world. It includes not only beautiful images of Cornwall but also a month by month listing of many annual events, festivals and celebrations taking place throughout Cornwall. It even includes a little of the Cornish language.

Please take time to browse our product range – we hope that you find something to interest you.

With very best wishes

Pen & Ewan McClymont

About us
Evocative Cornwall was the inspiration of Sarah Lay, who in 2004 produced the first Evocative Cornwall calendar. Having been loyal customers of Sarah’s since the beginning (the calendars have been a constant feature of our kitchen wall), we were delighted to take over the business in January 2017. It is the essence of Cornwall, which Sarah successfully captured in her work, that we have found to be so beguili...

    The usual flurry of spring festivals has seen us out and about and enjoying all that Cornwall has to offer in such abundance in May.  Seemingly endless sunny weather vanished suddenly and with a certain amount of irony, just in time for some of the major Cornish festivals.  You had to be at Padstow’s Obby Oss early to see much dryth (is that still a word?!) with the rain taking a firm hold late...

    We’ve been so engrossed in designing and producing the 2018 Evocative Cornwall calendar in time for Easter that the arrival of Spring almost went un-noticed. When I hear the word ‘spring’, it always has positive connotations – ‘spring in your step’ or ‘spring into action’. Even saying the word feels a positive thing. Well, Spring has arrived in Cornwall with longer evenings, sunnier days and ev...

    We were aware we didn’t know much about printing when we started this process, but then, how hard could it be?  Well, it turns out it’s all much more complicated than we ever imagined.  Dave Mynne, our extraordinarily patient graphic designer, did his best to explain some of the nuances of the process to us, but for every concept we took on board it seemed there was a further complication just ...

      It has been fascinating to find that the first major job of this year is pulling together next year’s calendar!  Really interesting for us to collaborate with so many talented people, and to start getting to know the myriad of volunteers behind the many Cornish events and festival which are listed in the calendar.  More of all that in the coming weeks, but before sharing too much of next yea...

    On the day we formally took over the business from Sarah, she presented us with a beautifully wrapped gift - a book on landscape photography entitled ‘Waiting for the Light’.  Although so far there has been no time to do anything more than flick hungrily through its pages, it has already proved itself to be another of the many pearls of wisdom Sarah has shared with us through the handover proce...

    ....this sunset was a real cracker!  I walked from the Count House at Botallack towards Cape Cornwall and back on Saturday late afternoon.  Those of you who know your Poldark will recognise West Wheal Owles which is used as the set for Ross Poldark's Wheal Leisure.
