I've been invited to Cornwall for christmas for a week with my other half and her family. It's one of the few counties I have never ever visited and ask you knowledgeable folks to fill me in on what to do and places to go. If I chose to attend I'll be missing my dad's 60th birthday so I'm in a bit of a quandary.

 

Your help would really be appreciated :)

Well I suppose you could go surfing, but it's probably a bit chilly at Xmas time even with that gulf stream. This should give you some ideas Cornwall holiday attractions & Theme Parks @ Chycor Cornwall UK

The Satellite Tracking Station at Goonhilly Downs.

The Lizard.....(The most southerly point of the mainland.)

 

The problem is that a lot of the usual attractions are closed in the winter.

i'm pretty open minded although surfing in december doesn't appeal. I'll certainly be visiting the eden project and as many public houses as I can possibly fit in.

One to visit.... Jamaica Inn on the A30 near Indian Queens.

It featured in the book of the same name by Daphne du Maurier.

It is said to be haunted and was once a smuggler's den.

actually......the best thing about cornwall is the sea and the coast..........and it's best of all on really blustery days in winter. :)

the rest of st ives is lovely anyway - even if you are not into art.

 

We went in Feb and loved it.

 

But I love cornwall anyway.

 

We stayed near Mullion - and to see the winter seas is quite breathtaking.

Good point. Never thought of that...probably because I grew up on the coast in the countryside so you just take it for granted.

Forget Jamaica Inn...it is complete and utter ****e...

 

Eden does Ice Skating in the winter, and that is where I will be spending a lot of my time.

 

As for the rest of it, as the time approaches I am sure Crush and myself will be able to help you create an itinerary, and also make arrangements for a booze up...

 

...and if you are really lucky, we may even make you an honorary member of SpAM and CrAP...
