Budock Vean Hotel

Falmouth, Cornwall

A sprawling estate running down to its own creek on the Helford, so the weekend can be spent paddleboarding, chasing round the golf course or swimming in the indoor pool. Trebah and Glendurgan gardens are next door — both brilliant for children with their beaches and maze.

    Zoo · ideal day trip

    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.

  • Eden Project ↗

    ~32 miles · ~45 mins

    Nature / outdoors · ideal day trip

    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.
