Silverbow Country Park Cornwall

Silverbow Country Park is a beautiful holiday park just around 3 miles from Perranporth on the north coast of Cornwall, about 12 miles south of Newquay. If you have never visited Perranporth, it is one of those bucket list locations in the South West like St Ives. This beach is stunning, it is 2 miles long at low tide and has beautiful sand and is regarded as one of the best surfing beaches in the country. With RNLI lifeguards in the summer, it is a popular tourist destination but as it is so long, it doesn’t get jam packed. The small town has everything, pubs and good quality restaurants, plenty of shops and lots to do in the nearby area.

Spooky Treats from Red Letter Days

After writing about some grown up Halloween experiences last week, it got me thinking about much fun it really would be to get away and do something different this year. That being said, I still the love the idea of having some flexibility around when you actually travel and not having to commit to dates unless you are ready to, so I’ve come up with some more options but this time from the fabulous Red Letter Days.

Thursford Christmas Spectacular

From the moment we arrived it was just magical. Trees covered in lights everywhere you look, from the carpark guiding you in and as you walk through an archway into Thursford the magic only increases. With animatontric huskies barking their greeting and even more lights than you would have thought possible.
