Baby friendly holidays

If you come down to Cornwall outside the peak holiday season itโ€™s much quieter than at the height of the summer, which means less time spent queuing and more time for adventures! Cornwallโ€™s mild climate means spring comes earlier, and warm, sunny days often linger until late autumn, making it ideal for days out with babies and toddlers.

Bosinverโ€™s Nanny Pat has been out and about exploring Cornwall with her grandchildren, and sheโ€™s put together a free downloadable ebook, Nanny Patโ€™s Adventures. It’s packed full of tried-and-tested suggestionsย for where to go and what to do in Cornwall with babies and toddlers, so you can be sure of a great day out!

Holidays like they used to be

If youโ€™re longing for a return to a slower pace of life, a holiday in Cornwall could be just what you need. Gather the whole family and set off on a trip down memory lane. Make time to rediscover the magic of the simple things in life. Think sandcastle building competitions on the beach, picnics in the dunes and ice creams all round. Blissโ€ฆ

The great outdoors

Whether your idea of enjoying the outdoors is setting off on a hike along the coast path, seeking out the surf, or finding your own private beach where you can doze, dream and enjoy the feeling of the sun on your skin, youโ€™ll find it all here in Cornwall.

Heritage & culture

Youโ€™ll find traces of the past everywhere you go in Cornwall. Thereโ€™sย so much toย explore, from castles to historic houses. Follow in the footsteps of the Cornish miners and experience life underground at Geevor tin mine, or step back into the past at Chyauster Iron Age village.
