Land's End Attractions

This iconic spot on the map is home to a theme park with all kinds of interactive displays and exhibitions, a farm where visitors can feed the animals and a small shopping village, but many people come simply to gaze out to sea from this dramatic, rocky piece of coastline.

classic old rip off Britain

Definitely the worst "attraction" we visited. Overpriced, charge for everything, the main photo opportunity (the Land's End sign) is run by private photographers so you can't get a picture (unless you pay of course) and the canteen is stuffy and food poor (the worst Cornish pasty I had). I suppose if you're in that part of the world you have to go but be warned and plan to eat before/after, plenty of nice pubs around!

2 stars for tacky attractions, 5 stars for location, 4 stars for Greeb Farm

There is some fun stuff for the kids to enjoy, and the most interesting thing is the real RNLI lifeboat which you can enter. Of course you can bypass the attractions and see the real star of the show, the dramatic coastline and the view towards the lighthouse past Kettles Bottom. While you're there, walk 200 metres or so to the south of the attractions to Greeb Farm. This understated part of the Lands End complex is actually a wonderful opportunity for children to get up close to farm animals (and hold them), experience what this genuine 18th century smallholding was like for those who lived there - and even try their hand at pottery with the local craftspeople in various workshops.
