Valley View Touring Park

You'll need a few weeks at least around Cornwall's coast, countryside and family attractions, whether you go north, south or see how far to the west you can hike along the South West Coast Path (Porthtowan to Portreath is a good start if you don't mind a few steep climbs along the way). The Valley View Touring Park team knows the area well and has a pile of recommended days out for all tastes to try: for beaches, there's Porthtowan two miles away as well as Chapel Porth, Perranporth, Fistral, Newquay and Crantock; for horse riding, stables are in Redruth, Trenance and Newquay, and for teeing off, drive along to the Radnor Golf & Leisure course and driving range at Redruth. Kidwise, soft play centres for toddlers are at Penryn and Truro, and all ages should squeal at the friendly critters and huge indoor play centre of Dairyland Farm World in Newquay. Also recommended for family days are Newquay Zoo and the town's pools and flumes at WaterWorld, Flambards at Helston and the famed Eden Project just outside St Austell. For peaceful and grownup pursuits, fishing lakes are near Newquay and bass and flatfish can be landed off the rocks at the end of Perranporth beach.
