Local Attractions

Obviously Cornwall is famous for its glorious beaches and ancient tin mines but you are never far from something to occupy the family for a day out. Listed below are just a few popular attractions for you to consider. Please also look at our news and events page for local activities as well as looking at the Propercornwall website which is full of useful information. 

We can also recommend the iwalkcornwall app for those that like to get out walking.  A database of 310 walks in Cornwall, ranging from 2 to 13 miles. Nearly all of these are circular and the majority are in the 3-6 mile range. Walks packed with local history and nature information can be purchased via our app for £3.29 which guides you around the route using detailed, heavily-tested hand-written directions tracked via GPS.

For the sun seekers there is also a new app called My Coast which you can use to plan your best and safest beach day ever, enabling all beach-goers to ‘know before they go’, with a clever filter system to select the right beach for you.
