Family Holiday Guide to Cornwall

Bring the whole family to Cornwall and have the best time of your life with its family holiday parks, beaches, and more!

There is nothing as relaxing and exhilarating as spending the holiday breaks in Cornwall. Cornwall offers a variety of fun-filled park holidays and family holidays all rolled into one. Still, there is so much to do with so little time. So how do you get to maximise a Cornwall holiday - indulge in the beaches and tourist attractions - without having to hurt your wallet that much? Let's take an entertaining Cornwall holiday virtual tour with the whole family.

To start the holiday, a little bit of nature can provide a revitalising effect on the body. The enormous domes of the Eden Project offers you just that as you plunge into a green revolution of plants from all over the globe. The same experience is true with the Lost gardens of Heligan, Trelissick and Trebah.

Cornwall is also rich in history that one can take advantage of the glorious cathedral at Truro along with some shops and bars. If you want to go back in time during the industrial revolution, then Redruth or Camborne is the place to be. Moreover, the National Trust and English Heritage preserves dramatic historical edifices like the Lanhydrock House and the Pendennis Castle.

All the roaming and sight-seeing can get you really hungry and it is time to get into some unique restaurants. Cornwall houses extraordinary chefs in the person of celebrities Rick Stein and Jamie Oliver who have set up their own restaurants to serve seafood as the main attraction in their menu.

In Cornwall, you will get to see a lot of tourist attractions including Land's End, Flambards, and Crealy Adventure Park - it is found between Newquay and Padstow and features a Pets Paddock, Macdonald's Farm, an indoor adventure playground and of course the rides!

Surfing in Newquay

Who said that you're too old to go surfing? When you get to Newquay in Cornwall, the immaculate beaches and bunch of surfers will surely lure you to immerse in the blue waters. Being the surfing capital, surfing never really stops but only peaks in the summer especially in resorts around Fistral Bay and Watergate Bay. Other equally inviting resorts that are lined up in the North Coast include Polzeath, Perranporth, Sennen, St Ives, and Bude. If surfing is not really the family's turf, more serene seashores ideal for bathing and having fun with sandcastles could be found on the south coast. More of the water and other friendly creatures can also be found at the Waterworld, Newquay Zoo, and Blue Reef Aquarium.

Cornwall also boasts of its fishing villages and harbours including Newlyn, Mousehole, Tintagel, Portloe, Cadgwith and Looe. In particular, you will find an enticing view at Padstow harbour and could enjoy a little shopping trip to Falmouth.

Now, wasn't that an unforgettable tour! The great thing about it is that you can make this visualisation into a real holiday. So go and get your bags packed because you are more than ready for that family holiday in Cornwall.
