Medieval water mill set deep in a wooded valley. There is a small mill museum, craft shop and very popular cafe famed for its light lunches and delicious home-made pastries and cakes. The water wheel (cast by Harris & Polmear of the City Foundry, Truro in 1882) is working and you can sit and watch the ducks and other wildlife around the picnic tables under the trees.
Perched on the edge of the harbour in the old lifeboat station, this cute little aquarium is home to some unusual species and all are caught and donated by local fishermen. It is tiny so don't expect Sea World but it is worth a visit and is free (donations gratefully received).
A model train lovers delight. Open from March to October, visitors will see over 30 trains travelling through towns, country, seaside and alpine winter. There's a Junior Junction for youngsters with Hornby Thomas The Tank Engine and there's even a garden railway (indoors!).
A super display of model railway exhibitions plus one of the best model shops in the South West. Restricted opening times during the winter so check their Website for details.
'Enjoy fun Days Out near Tregony with all the family with our long list of 4 things to do with the children, as recommended by people who have been there.'
