Rain or shine you will find something to fill your days:

After breakfast you may be heading for the coastal paths or beaches or you may wish to visit Cornwall's many attractions which include; golf, scuba, sailing, fishing, pony trekking, coastal walks, bird watching, wild life parks and lots more.
Cornwall has a fascinating history and has many sights reflecting this, you will hear legends of ghosts & smugglers and visit strange circles of granite stones.
