The remains of Tintagel Castle are at the heart of Arthurian legend. The location of the castle is spectacular – half a mile outside of Tintagel, across rugged clifftops, with no vehicular access. Tintagel Island, attached to the mainland by a sliver of land, enhances the wild and romantic atmosphere.
The museum is set in the castle and offers an interesting insight into life in Bude, its varied geology, history and its progression from a port to most recently a surfing centre. Education facilities, a shop and restaurant are on site and the restaurant has stunning views.
Tunnels through the aquarium give visitors an interesting view of all manner of marine wildlife, including reef sharks and stingrays.
Great fun for all the family with pets corner, skittles, play barn, ball pools, trampolines and giant slide (to name a few). No need to bring a picnic as you can enjoy great value food from the Hungry Farmer Cafe. Plus it's the only farm park to have a steam railway right outside the door to make the journey as much fun as the day.
The Lappa Valley Steam Railway has three miniature linked railways around the valley, together with a boating lake, crazy golf and play areas.
From African lions to zebras, Cornwall's award-winning zoo is home to over 300 animals. There's plenty to do, with daily feeding times and talks, a play area, maze, picnic spots, a cafe and, in summer, bbq's by the lake. Young animal lovers can sign up to be a junior zookeeper for the day.
An Elizabethan manor house with beautiful gardens and many restored rooms to explore inside. Highlights include the ornate fireplaces and ceilings and the traditional orchard containing rare heritage' varieties of apples and pears.
A stately home with magnificent gardens – 50 acres including a sunken Italian garden, a lake and over 700 varieties of rhododendron. In summer plays are staged here.
Elegant ceramics with watercolour style decoration and precious metals.
Two great beam engines sit at the heart of the Cornish World Heritage Mining Site. The dramatic story of Cornish mining is told through films, displays, models and guides.
