Autumn has undeniably kicked in this week with temperatures taking a tumble in Cornwall. Despite some wet and windy weather recently it looks like we will see plenty of autumn sunshine over half term – phew! Remember to pack your woolly hats though as it’ll be chilly!
Our annual Halloween activities will of course be taking place, if you are staying with us, you’ll already have the inside scoop on all the spooky happenings. On top of all that there are all sorts of fun-packed themed events going on around Cornwall to keep the kids (both big and little) occupied.
Here are our top recommendations:
1. Halloweden returns for another year at the Eden Project. Take on a special quest to protect the world’s forests. Become a forest guardian, watch enchanting performances, hear enchanting tales, and meet mystical characters. You can even join one of their wand making workshop experiences or take a spin on the ice skating rink for a small additional charge.
