This is an excellent place with a great cause. The staff were knowledgeable and friendly, coming out with stories about the different monkeys and how they got there, and you could tell they genuinely cared and had the monkey's wellbeing at heart. Not many monkeys or very big, but lovely place in a lovely location. Me and the kids had fun, Thanks!

A good walk a bit steep in places and muddy . A must for walking/wellington boots, plenty of parking and free (yeahy). A lovely little shack in the car park I didn't stop it was very busy which is good 👍🏻. The national trust have done well to encourage wildlife hedges all round here.👏🏻👏🏻

Absolutely spellbinding! Our family trip to Bude, Cornwall on April 20th, 2025, wouldn't have been the same without a visit to the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic. From the moment we arrived, parking was a breeze thanks to the conveniently located Cobweb Car Park, just a short and pleasant 5-minute walk away. The lady at reception was an absolute delight, so welcoming, with a genuinely warm smile & incredibly helpful with our questions regarding tickets and the layout. Speaking of which, the pricing was very reasonable: £7 for adults and £5 for kids between 6 and 17 years old, with under-5s going free, which was a bonus for our youngest! Inside, the museum is certainly packed with fascinating artifacts and exhibits. While it's undeniably congested, this actually added to the unique atmosphere. Every nook & cranny seemed to hold a piece of history or a curious tale, creating an immersive experience that truly captivated both the adults and the kids. We spent ages exploring the diverse collection, sparking some really interesting conversations with our children. This museum isn't just a collection of dusty relics; it's a journey into a world of folklore, tradition, and the enduring power of belief. It's thought-provoking, sometimes eerie, but always engaging. If you're in the area, it's an absolute must-see for a truly memorable and unique experience. Highly recommended!

St Nectan’s Waterfall is absolutely worth the visit if you're in Cornwall. Just be aware that the GPS location isn’t completely accurate - you can’t drive right up to the waterfall. You’ll need to park in the designated car park just before the right turn to the falls (only £3 for the whole day), and then enjoy a 30-minute walk through a stunning forest trail to reach the site. The walk itself is part of the experience—peaceful, scenic, and filled with the sounds of nature. It’s quite steep in places and can be a bit slippery when wet, so wear comfortable shoes with good grip. The path is well-maintained, with railings where needed to keep it safe. When you arrive, the site is clearly laid out with signs and staff to guide you. There’s a café, toilets, and a picnic area where you can take a break. The site also hosts meditation sessions, yoga classes, and retreats, and there’s even a dedicated meditation room. Admission to the waterfall is £10 per person. The waterfall itself is beautiful and it's worth visiting.

Went here while on holiday. Beautiful little village and well worth the visit to the castle to see Arthur's statue. Steps to climb up and down so not everyone can do this but if you can definitely recommend. £2.50 to get a lift back up from the ruins was well.worth it.

What a view! To visit the ruins of Tintagel Castle the surrounding cliffs alone are worth it. From the castle itself are just a few remains. When the tide is low you can explore the few caves down at the beach, including Merlin’s cave. The walk over the bridge is stunning The fees are quite high with 20 Pounds but the historical site has to be kept. So we didn’t mind too much.

Amazing place. Arrived at mid day, left at 4pm after a wander around the house, church and gardens, the other half I'll have to come back and explore another day as I ran out of time and had to head back home! All the staff here are knowledgeable and friendly. Great day out.

I had an amazing experience riding the steam train from here on a double return, absolutely loving sitting in a comfortable classic carriage! The steam train pulling it was a fabulous experience as I had a Cornish cream tea at a standard price that tasted phenomenal, leaving from the vintage station that included buildings, signs, utilities and more. Cleanliness had been heavily maintained and there is a mini museum, featuring history about railways and also model ones!

Bodmin Jail is a brilliant attraction – really well presented, atmospheric, and full of history. The courtyard is lovely for a drink afterwards too. The only let-down was the final attraction: it’s built up as if you’ll see a hanging, but in reality it’s just a tiny platform drop and nothing much else, which felt a bit flat after all the build-up. Aside from that, we thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely recommend a visit.

Amazing place to visit no matter the weather! There are the inside biomes which are amazing to see in the sun or rain and the wonderful outdoor gardens to see as well. There are great outdoor play areas for kids and if you're feeling adventurous a zip-line that goes over the eden project as well. Definitely worth pre-booking though, to avoid the queues.

Really enjoyed the trip - beautiful coast, smooth ride. And it was nice to look round Fowey. On our return trip we saw dolphins - in the distance at first, but then up closer, both through the very clear water and jumping out of it. The skipper checked slowly to let us have more time to see them. Absolutely wonderful. Friendly team, helpful and efficient.

A brilliant little museum packed with local history. There's hardly an inch not filled with some kind of historic object. It could charge a lot more than the £2 currently asked for admission and it would still be good value.

Donation only. Super lovely staff - low pressure and down to earth. Such a lovely collection aquarists would love to have a set up like this. Sharks, fish, a huge eel, mermaids purses, crabs, lobsters. Information posters and signs too. Really fab cherry for any visit. Suitable all ages.

We experienced the magical Heligan Night Garden which is a separate ticketed event to the standard Lost Gardens entry. All the stewards from the parking attendants, those on the trail and those when we departed were knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The accessible parking was close to the entry and this and all the usual parking is free for night garden customers. There are a few ridges from rain in the car park and some trails so take care in a wheelchair or mobility scooter. The night gardens were pretty from the entrance and of course we took far too many photos of the beautiful and creative installations. One super bonus that doesn't appear to be advertised until you check the small print on the back of the leaflet you are given on entry, is that your entire party have a complimentary daytime entry for the gardens until 31st January after you attend the night gardens. The one-way layout of the trail was really well thought out. The accessible routes did not miss any of the installations. The refreshment facilities had queues but plenty of space to sit outside and in the undercover areas (the weather was kind) to enjoy a drink or snack. The Stewards House was serving more substantial meals and warmer inside. The timed entries seemed to allow space for everyone to see the installations and manoeuvre about. The barn was open for goat & donkey petting and taking festive photos in a sleigh or with cuddly polar bears and we toasted marshmallows over a large firepit and enjoyed a created snow shower in one area. We really enjoyed the evening and the families with children around us seemed to be doing so also. The exit is through the gift shop of course.

Had to visit on our current holiday to Cornwall. Been a few years since last visit. Came in the late afternoon, so late lunch so found a pastie shop bought a few bits and the family had a small picnic along the harbour wall. Scenery was amazing fantastic sunny day . Even got a little pub stop done before heading off .can't wait to come back and try new shops and eateries.

Me and my buddy hired boards on Saturday and Sunday from Ticket to Ride for the weekend! Everything went smoothly, it was our second time hiring there BUT we hadn’t realised that they closed on Sundays out of season (it certainly didn’t ‘feel’ out of season! 20 degrees in October) We were pretty gutted until Charlie, the friendly fella behind the desk, hooked us up by lending us roof straps and giving us a secret location to stow the boards when we finished with them on Sunday! (Cheers mate! You saved our weekend!) Professional, affordable (given they are literally right there at watergate bay), the equipment was good to go and we had an amazing time! I might have my own board by the time I return, but I’ll definitely need lessons and they will be the first place I call!

One of the most beautiful animal parks i have been to. The plant life is spectacular. The animals are so loved and in fine condition. There is a lovely atmosphere to the place. The staff were very knowledgeable about the animals and zoological information. The coffee was nice to. I would highly recommend this zoo ... I prefer animal park. It was spotless no rubbish anywhere the toilets were immaculate we had an amazing day. We have been to many animals parks from Canada to new Zealand. But we saw animals here we had never seen before. Great for kids loads of space and great play areas. 💯%

Probably the best beach I’ve ever been on .beautiful sand and surfing is really entertaining. Great modern amenities .car park gets really busy.

Highly recommend the free tour. Lots of information about the history of the castle and the local area. We originally went for the Taskmaster collaboration as we were in the area. But didn't end up doing many of the tasks as were busy exploring the castle instead. Overall a great day.

Fantastic day out for the family with lots to see and do! The tractor tour was fantastic, the cider tasting (naturally) was very enjoyable. Kids can pet animals, learn history and sample some delicious Cornish scones and ice cream

They're are always fabulous exhibitions in the buildings. Talks you can sign up to listen to online. The cafe does wonderful reasonably priced and children's portions as well. Plenty for all the family. The photos show the walk we always do which is out to Pendenis Point and further along to Gllyvase beach.

Can’t go wrong with this beach. Absolutely massive. Great golden sands, dunes. Perfect for surfing, bodyboarding, kayaking maybe even paddle boarding if it’s flat. Rock pools to explore as well as caves and dunes. Plenty of shops around. Big pub on the beach. Dogs on leads welcome and off leads further out. Worth a visit.

Gorgeous, historic gardens. The maze was fun. Few games dotted around for children & adults alike. If you're really into gardening & plants, this is the place. We walked all the way down to the tiny hamlet next to the Helford River where we had an ice cream. Then the steep walk back up. A nice way to while away a few hours.

Such a beautiful place to visit, been many times in the past and returned this year to find its just as unspoilt . Lots of unusual tropical plants grow in this protected valley , it’s a steep hike down to the beach at the bottom but worth the walk to be rewarded by stunning views and the most amazing ice cream. We were lucky to go on a warm day in early autumn and it was the highlight of our holiday

The Cornish Seal Sanctuary near Gweek is a really enjoyable and worthwhile day out. We spent a good few hours walking around the different parts of the sanctuary, from The Hospital (no patients on our visit) to the Common Seals and beyond. There are scheduled talks throughout the day in various areas, and feeding times are always a highlight – the seals are truly majestic creatures to watch up close. One thing I found particularly interesting was learning that they no longer run breeding programmes. Although they successfully raised pups, once released many struggled to survive in the wild because they weren’t naturally wary of humans. Instead, the sanctuary now focuses fully on rescue, rehabilitation, and release, which feels much more in line with their mission. It’s clear the whole place is designed around giving injured or vulnerable seals the best chance of recovery and a return to the wild. The staff are knowledgeable and clearly passionate about what they do, which really adds to the experience. As an added bonus, the ticket allows you to return as many times as you like for free within the year after your purchase – great value if you’re local or visit Cornwall regularly. I’d definitely recommend going at least once; it’s a mix of education, conservation, and an enjoyable family-friendly outing. Also, if you book online via Love to Visit, you can get a 20% discount, which is worth checking out. Overall, a lovely and meaningful experience.
