Days out nearby

  • Eden Project ↗

    ~5 miles · ~15 mins

    Nature / outdoors · nearby attraction

    Giant biomes hold a rainforest with a canopy walkway and a Mediterranean garden, set in a former clay pit. Children love the scale and the play areas; it is a Cornwall essential whatever the weather.

  • Newquay Zoo ↗

    ~16 miles · ~30 mins

    Zoo · nearby attraction

    A small, leafy zoo set in subtropical gardens, easy to cover in half a day with little ones. Lemurs, penguins and red pandas are the stars, and it slots neatly between beach sessions on a Cornwall break.

  • Dartmoor Zoo ↗

    ~45 miles · ~1 hr

    Zoo · ideal day trip

    The zoo made famous by 'We Bought a Zoo' sits on the edge of Dartmoor, with big cats, bears and wolves in wooded enclosures. A good, uncrowded outing for families staying on the moor or near Plymouth.
