You will find lots to keep the family entertained here including a traditional skittle alley, rifle range and pistol shooting, crazy golf and table football to name but a few. There is also a restaurant offering great value family food. Ample parking but it is advisable to book at busy times.
Follow in the footsteps of 18th Century Cornish tin miners - this is 'the only complete tin mine in Cornwall open for underground guided tours'. If you love Cornwall, it's nigh time you investigated the very ground it's built upon. It's an international destination of historical interest with a 'labyrinth of levels, caverns, adits, stopes, tunnels and shafts'. You should get your headlamp on and go investigate.
A 15th Century Tudor house. Inside you'll find displays of armour, weapons, old horse-drawn vehicles and maps.
One of the biggest theme parks in the south west; with so much going on, you'll hardly know where to begin.
Previously known as The National Seal Sanctuary, abandoned and injured seals are brought here to be nursed and rehabilitated before being released back into Cornish waters. Feeding time is always quite a spectacle.
Follow the signs past the main gate of RNAS Culdrose and you will find the viewing enclosure, giving panoramic views across the airfield of the largest helicopter airbase in Europe. Not much flying takes place for 3 weeks during August because of summer holidays!
The artefacts here sprawl across two floors and five halls. Well laid out, the museum charts the social history of the area with evocative exhibitions.
One of Cornwall's best-preserved 'fogous' - prehistoric manmade caves. There are a number of these mysterious structures found throughout Cornwall. Similar structures are found in Ireland, Brittany and Scotland.
Contemporary art, craft and sculpture to buy plus a programme of exhibitions throughout the year.
An awe-inspiring Jacobean mansion with its own chapel. Outbuildings have been tastefully converted to create a restaurant and a craft display area. There are also leisure facilities including a swimming pool, children's pool and gym, for which holiday membership is available.
