No idea what Cornish and Welsh accents are like. Can you point to a source?

Well of course as well as being accents to the English language, both Cornish and Welsh are languages in their own right:

As for the respective accents - a Cornish accent is probably best described as the way pirates speak in movies and a Welsh accent generally has a soft, gutteral element to it. Try finding Richard Burton reading Dylan Thomas's 'Under Milk Wood' and you will hear a soft, slightly anglicised welsh accent. They range from there right up to really quite throaty and somewhat impenetrable accents of North and Mid-Wales where the Welsh langauge is still prevalent as a first language. It is no coincidence that the Welsh make the best choral singers in the world!
